Abstract
The current study aimed to standardize the Stanford Binet Scale, the fifth picture, SB5, for children in the Kuwaiti environment to reach building standards that are reliable in making appropriate decisions and to be an honest and codified tool in the Kuwaiti environment to determine the mental abilities of children in early childhood at the age of (4-7 years). The study population consisted of (92592), including (39,065) students in kindergarten and (53527) students in the first and second grades of primary school for the academic year 2019-2020, and the sample of the study amounted to (450) children in the age group (4-7 years). From all the governorates of Kuwait, the study sample was selected in a random cluster manner, and the Stanford-Binet Scale, Fifth Image (SB5), a standardized version, was used. The results indicated that both the difficulty coefficients and the discrimination coefficients for the items of the non-verbal side are statistically significant, and all of them indicate the effectiveness of the items in distinguishing between students of the higher and lower categories. during factor analysis; The highest percentage of variance explained was the liquid inference factor which explained 24% of the total variance, followed by the knowledge factor, then the quantitative inference factor, then the visuospatial processing factor, then the working memory factor. Finally, the results indicated that there were differences between the arithmetic averages according to the variable of classification of students (normal and people with disabilities), and all the differences were on the scale in favor of the ordinary, as evidenced by their higher arithmetic averages in all fields than the arithmetic averages for the disabled and this indicates the discriminatory ability of the test, and these results were discussed in The light of previous studies and theoretical literature.
