History of Intelligence Testing (Page 3)
Using this concept, Binet decided to measure only the total product of the separate and distinct elements of intelligence. This way he freed himself from identifying each element of intelligence and, thus, chose to use only tasks that "measured" the final product of intelligence. He judge the value a particular task depending on how well it correlated with the combined result of all other tasks, eliminating tasks that had low correlations and retaining those with high correlations. This made up the core of the first intelligence test.
