The present study investigated the concepts of intelligence of two groups of Hong Kong Chinese university students. The y differed in the secondary schools from which they graduated, one followed the Chinese system and the other the Enash system. The se two groups were otherwise similar in age, academic achievement, and racial background. Subjects were asked to rate items selected from four popular intelligence tests in terms of their relevance to measuring intelligence and perceived difficulty. The relevance ratings were taken as reflections of the group's concept of intelligence. Factor analysis revealed two major factors and several minor factors underlying the relevance ratings of the two groups. The major ones were Non-verbal and Verbal reasoning skills, and the minor ones were Social, Numerical, and Retrieval skills. The Non-verbal reasoning skill was rated equally relevant by the two groups of subjects and was considered as the most relevant skill to measuring intelligence. The Verbal reasoning and Social skills were next, followed by the Numerical skill with the Retrieval slull being the least relevant. The Chinese-school group tended to rate the Verbal reasoning skill to be less relevant than did the Enghsh-school group. The se findings were attributed to the mental effort involved in solving each type of task and to the differences in school instruction. |
