According the Ray Fancher's chapter on Binet in Vol. 3 of _Portraits of Pioneers in Psychology_ series, he was "the first and only child" of parent who split reltaively soon after his birth.

I could swear I read somewhere that Alfred Binet was a twin and that his
sister, Alfreda actually continued his work on intelligence testing but is
rarely credited with contributing.

A student doing a presentation on Binet found resources that said he was
an only child.

Can one of you History of Psych-type people confirm his twinage?
