Answer:

Piper's test is the Stanford Binet, and Taylor's test is the WAIS (Weschler Adult Intelligence Scale).

Explanation:

Both test are used to measure one's intelligence but they both differ in the way of measurement.

Let's break them down:

  • Stanford Binet: it is divided into 4 scales (verbal reasoning, visual/abstract reasoning, quantitative reasoning and short-term memory). All these give a single score, known as the G Factor; general intelligence.
  • WAIS: it measures different capacities and provides scores for each of them. It measures verbal comprehension, perceptive reasoning, work memory and processing speed.

In this case, Piper is taking the Stanford Binet since she will receive a single score, while Taylor is taking the WAIS and will receive 4 separate scores for each.
