Eight-year-old Susan was tested and found to have an average IQ of 100. What would you estimate her mental age (MA) to be?

Answer :

Her mental age would be 8 yrs old.

IQ [ Intelligent Quotient ] is a type of standard score that indicates how far above, or how far below, his/her peer group an individual stands in mental ability.

IQ of a person is given by the formula -

IQ = MA/CA * 100

IQ = Mental Age / Chronological Age * 100

According to the question, IQ = 100, CA = 8

⇒ 100 = MA / 8 *100

⇒1 = MA / 8

⇒ MA = 8 Yrs

Hence, the estimated mental age of susan is 8 yrs old.
