Türkiye’s 1st intelligence test seeks to identify prodigies
ISTANBUL

In a groundbreaking initiative under the direction of the Education Ministry, authorities have developed Türkiye’s first domestic artificial intelligence-based psychological assessment tool to evaluate the mental skills and abilities of gifted individuals aged between 3 and 22.
Named Turkish National Intelligence Scale (TUZÖ), three Turkish universities primed this national intelligence tool within the scope of a project initiated by the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Türkiye (TÜBİTAK).
This sustainable and interactive intelligence test mainly focuses on numerical knowledge, literacy, understanding, fluid thinking, short-term memory, long-term memory, visual processing, auditory processing and processing speed. Presenting approximately 7,000 questions, the tool features both computer-based and paper-and-pencil tests.
Thus, it examines intelligence in a multifaceted manner, providing a thorough evaluation of specific strengths and limitations of individuals.
This further supports the process of developing educational plans that are relevant to the areas of development of such individuals.
