Historically, IQ was a score obtained by dividing a person's mental age score, obtained by administering an intelligence test, by the person's chronological age, both expressed in terms of years and months. The resulting fraction (quotient) was multiplied by 100 to obtain the IQ score.[2] For modern IQ tests, the raw score is transformed to a normal distribution with mean 100 and standard deviation 15.[3] This results in approximately two-thirds of the population scoring between IQ 85 and IQ 115 and about 2.5 percent each above 130 and below 70.[4][5]
Scores from intelligence tests are estimates of intelligence. Unlike, for example, distance and mass, a concrete measure of intelligence cannot be achieved given the abstract nature of the concept of "intelligence".[6] IQ scores have been shown to be associated with such factors as nutrition,[7][8] parental socioeconomic status,[9][10] morbidity and mortality,[11]Template:Sfn parental social status,Template:Sfn and perinatal environment.[12] While the heritability of IQ has been investigated for nearly a century, there is still debate about the significance of heritability estimates[13]Template:Sfn and the mechanisms of inheritance.[14]
