Features: This book marks a turning point in intelligence assessment. Based on the true nature of intelligence, we reconstruct intelligence through cognitive processes. At the same time, we generalize cognitive processes based on brain activity. Our cognitive processes theory originates from neuropsychology and cognitive psychology. The PASS model, which stands for "Planning-Attention-Simultaneous Processing-Serial Processing," was proposed by Das, Naglieri, Kirby, and others under the guiding principle of "intelligence must be viewed as a process to reconstruct the concept of intelligence." Through years of theoretical and experimental research, this model has been rigorously validated. This book serves as a new guide for intelligence assessment and can also be used as a textbook for graduate students. It will be highly beneficial for pure theoretical psychologists, applied psychologists, as well as educators working in fields such as cognitive education, individual differences, applied psychology, school psychology, and special education.
