Answer:

The development team should redesign the test until they find the results correlate well with other measures of intelligence.

Explanation:

The validity of an Intelligence Test is often a subject of debate, and sometimes IQ is the most widespread standard for assessing the level of "intelligence" given the traditional view on intelligence as a measure of very known habilities: mathematical, spatial, verbal, logic and memory.

If a test is to be valid, it should demonstrate a direct link between test scores and traits. It must accurately describe the pure intelligence rather than measuring things often taught as mediated through the educational process.

The IQ test is<u> internationally acknowledged to be the most reliable and valid test, so any tests that have a similar criteria will also be highly contributing to measuring intelligence in ways we often compare to educational level.</u>

<em>Furthermore, intelligence tests also need to update and include an international and cultural background into account for representing a score that yields most valid the actual intelligence. </em>

bazaltina [42]

The late 1800’s-early 1900’s were a trying time for the nation of Russia due to many events. These harsh times began in the 1890’s with the bad living and working conditions in the country that led to many strikes and revolts. A major revolt occurred in 1905 after the creation of radical factions/political parties. The Tsar (ruler) was not able to keep control or repair the sluggish economy. In both, 1905 and 1914 Russia found itself at war, which both led to embarrassing defeats, revolution, and the overthrow of the Tsar.

Andrej [43]

Answer:

1. The end of Bretton Woods

2. Energy control

3. Different

Explanation:

1 First a little economic history:  the Bretton Woods Gold Pool (Conversion of Gold into Dollars) ended in 1971, and marked the end of financial control the U.S. had over the rest of the world. In other words: the Dollar showed signs of weakness.

At the same time American oil consumption was rising but domestic oil production was declining. Policymakers in Washington didn´t believe that Arab oil exporters were willing to risk to lose the U.S. market.

But they did, and this, combined with the Palestine-Israel conflict, led to the oil crisis of 1973 when an oil embargo imposed by OPEC, led to fuel shortages and sky-high prices.

2. In the 21st century American still rely heavenly on foreign oil. The U.S. consumes about 20 million of the roughly 80 million barrels of oil consumed daily in the world! 3/5 of that is imported.

As we have seen the U.S. is still very vulnerable in the oil-department. Therefore the U.S. has supported energy and environmental improvements, such as the use of renewable energy sources.

3. They are similar in relying heavenly on foreign oil, then and now. They are different in seeking actively energy alternatives in this century.

Explanation:

Trade was also a boon for human interaction, bringing cross-cultural contact to a whole new level. When people first settled down into larger towns in Mesopotamia and Egypt, self-sufficiency – the idea that you had to produce absolutely everything that you wanted or needed – started to fade. A farmer could now trade grain for meat, or milk for a pot, at the local market, which was seldom too far away. Cities started to work the same way, realizing that they could acquire goods they didn't have at hand from other cities far away, where the climate and natural resources produced different things. This longer-distance trade was slow and often dangerous but was lucrative for the middlemen willing to make the journey. The first long-distance trade occurred between Mesopotamia and the Indus Valley in Pakistan around 3000 BC, historians believe. Long-distance trade in these early times was limited almost exclusively to luxury goods like spices, textiles, and precious metals. Cities that were rich in these commodities became financially rich, too, satiating the appetites of other surrounding regions for jewelry, fancy robes, and imported delicacies. It wasn't long after that trade networks crisscrossed the entire Eurasian continent, inextricably linking cultures for the first time in history. By the second millennium BC, former backwater island Cyprus had become a major Mediterranean player by ferrying its vast copper resources to the Near East and Egypt, regions wealthy due to their own natural resources such as papyrus and wool. Phoenicia, famous for its seafaring expertise, hawked its valuable cedarwood and linens dyes all over the Mediterranean. China prospered by trading jade, spices, and later, silk. Britain shared its abundance of tin.
