Horn and Cattell’s theory of intelligence

A

describes intelligence as consisting of two major factors that are distinct but not entirely independent: Crystallized intelligence (Gc) depends on prior learning and experience and is important for tasks that require the application of acquired knowledge and skills . Fluid intelligence (Gf) is the inherent aspect of intelligence. It represents the basic capacity to learn and does not depend on prior learning or experience.

Q

Carroll’s Three-Stratum Theory

A

Stratum III is general intelligence (g) which contributes to all other cognitive abilities; stratum II consists of eight broad abilities [e.g., crystallized intelligence (Gc), fluid intelligence (Gf), short-term memory (Gsm)]; and stratum I consists of numerous specific abilities that are each linked to one of the stratum II abilities.

Q

Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences

A

based on the assumption that all people possess at least nine intelligences that are mediated by different areas of the brain, are relatively independent, and vary from person to person in terms of strength: linguistic, musical, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, naturalistic, and existential.

Q

Sternberg’s Triarchic Theory of Successful Intelligence

A

Analytical intelligence is comparable to general intelligence (g) and consists of knowledge-acquisition and information-processing skills that are used to analyze, evaluate, and critique information.

Creative intelligence is the ability to apply knowledge and information-processing skills to novel problems and unfamiliar situations.

practical intelligence is the ability to apply knowledge and information-processing skills to everyday tasks and situations
