Colin Cooper (psychologist)

Colin Cooper is a British psychologist and was a senior lecturer in the School of Psychology at Queen's University Belfast[1] until 2012, when he took early retirement and moved to Picton, and latterly London Ontario, Canada. Cooper also devised the multiple-choice IQ tests for the BBC television programme Test the Nation.[1][2] Among the questions, Cooper said that he had managed to "sneak in a few things that interested me", including questions "exploring the link between intelligence and genetics, height and the number of accidents they have had."[3]
