IQ PROFILES OF INDONESIAN STUDENTS USING AJT COGNITIVE TEST

Intelligence is a person's ability to perform cognitive tasks quickly and accurately (Salvia, 2008). Some examples of popular intelligence tests are the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS), the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC), the Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children (K-ABC). However, Indonesia does not yet have a specific intelligence test for students in Indonesia, both the items used and the norms used. During this time, intelligence tests in Indonesia only use IQ tests whose language is translated into Indonesian, but the norms used are not necessarily appropriate for students in Indonesia. AJT Cognitive Test is an intelligence test designed explicitly for Indonesian students, both the items and the test norms used. AJT Cognitive Test consists of eight broad abilities, namely fluid intelligence (Gf), comprehensionknowledge (Gc), auditory processing (Ga), visualisation processing (Gv), learning efficiency (Gl), short-term working memory (GWM), retrieval fluency (Gr), and speed processing (Gs). Because this test is used for cognitive mapping of students, the test results can be used to describe the cognitive profile of students in Indonesia. This study will provide a cognitive picture of students in Indonesia, particularly Java Islands, namely the Provinces of DKI Jakarta, West Java, Central Java, DI Yogyakarta and East Java. Indonesian students are also relatively good at retrieval fluency skills or the ability to remember long-term. It also shows that Indonesian students have sufficient ability in terms of remembering. However, Indonesian students tend to be low in terms of speed processing. Some demographic results were also discussed in this study.
