WISC-IV web meta-search link posted

I've added my 2nd IQ's Corner web meta-search link to the appropriate section of this blog (scroll down left side of blog to the "Meta-web searches" section). The topic is the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children--Fourth Edition (WISC-IV). Why would I do this, given my authorship of the WISC-IV's major competitor (WJ III) and my strong support for CHC theory, which the WISC-IV is not formally grounded in?

Simple. Any post that mentions this instrument generates traffic to my site...and the more people that come and "find a home" at IQ's Corner....the greater the chances more professionals will learn and improve their intelligence assessment practices.

Stay tunned. Other tests, concepts, ideas, topics, etc. will be similarly searched and added to the Meta-web search section (and routinely updated as needed) on a regular basis. Check back frequently.

CHC intelligence theory meta-web search 10-17-07

I'm hoping to start yet another new feature at IQ's Corner - meta-web topic searches.

For a number of years I've been using the meta-search software program Copernic Agent Why?

Because it searches multiple search engines in a single search, allows me to save each search profile, and then I can routinely update the search to see if new information "pops up." As described at the CA web page:

• Copernic Agent Basic gives you the ability to cover more of the Web and to get relevant, high quality results from more than 90 search engines grouped into categories. From a single query, Copernic Agent Basic gives you better search engine results by consulting multiple search engines at once, combining their results, removing duplicates and keeping only the very best of the information gathered from queried search engines.

I've just completed my "CHC theory" meta-search. I've saved the result--you can view it by clicking here. I hope to routinely update this CHC theory search, as well as add additional topic searches, as time goes by. I've added a new section to IQ's Corner (Meta-web searches - see left side of blog). Hopefully this will allow IQ's Corner readers to stay current re: the pulse of the web as it relates to key intelligence theory and test topics.

Readers are encouraged to send me suggested search topics either via the comment feature at this blog or through email (iap@earthlink.net)

Enjoy
