[xmca] IQ testing and school based evaluation

Bruce, Kevin, et al.:

A topic near and dear to my heart. The question of standardized tests
providing measures of intelligence was found to be contextual by Scribner
and Cole's "Psychology of Literacy" project and has continued to be shown
to be a measure of cultural intelligence rather then individual
intelligence by the years of those who write in the cross-cultural
tradition (i.e. Cole, Traupman, Glick, McDermott, etc.). See for instance
the first run Newsletter of the Institute for Comparative Human
Development.

Also, if people are so inclined I have never pushed this on the listserve
but at this point I see no reason in not submitting my humble paper.
Negative comments are more welcome then no comments and of course praise is
most appreciated. Also, Dr. Cole I apologize if your theories are
misrepresented.
