Abstract
SUMMARYIn an attempt to demonstrate the way in which Jean Piaget looks at intelligence and its development, a comparison was made with the more usual psychometric approach. Two subtests of the Terman‐Merrill revision of the Stanford Binet intelligence test were taken as a basis for this comparison, and it was shown that Piaget's interests in this field are directed towards the development of the thought processes which lie behind apparently simple tasks. He is not primarily concerned with the allocation of abilities to various age levels, but rather with the development of the internalised structures and mechanisms which enable the child to understand and solve various intellectual problems.
