Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Galton was the first to use reaction time as a measure of intelligence in the late 19th century. He believed that individuals with faster reaction times had superior nervous systems and therefore, were more intelligent. However, this belief has been proven to be inaccurate as reaction time is affected by various factors such as age, attention, and motivation, and does not accurately measure intelligence.
