Simon and Binet developed the IQ test as a measure of a child's aptitude for learning. They created the test to identify children who may need extra support in school and to help educators tailor their teaching methods to suit individual needs. Although the IQ test has been criticized for being culturally biased and not measuring all aspects of intelligence, its original purpose was to improve education for all children. Choice C is incorrect as there is no evidence to suggest that Simon and Binet created the IQ test to justify racism and xenophobia. Choice A is partially correct, as the IQ test was designed to measure intelligence, but its specific purpose was to assess aptitude for learning. Choice D is incorrect as the IQ test is not primarily a measure of academic achievement, although it may be used as one factor in evaluating academic progress.
