Meta-C: Konstruktion einer Skala zur Erfassung selbstwahrgenommener Leistungsfähigkeit in 3 Inhaltsklassen Psychometrischer Intelligenz

A multidimensional questionnaire (Meta-C, Meta Cognition) was constructed to measure self-perceived performance in the 3 content classes figural, numerical and verbal intelligence of the Berlin Intelligence Structure model. The scale showed a high internal consistency and broadly confirmed the considered factor structure. Significant positive correlations were found with the subscale 'Low vs. High Intelligence' of the 16 PF (Schnewind, Schröder & Cattell, 1986). Gender and intelligence content-specific differences in performance assessment were found (cf. Broadbent et al., 1982; Pollina et al., 1992 or Hüppe & Schmidt-Atzert, 1996).
