Study Notes
Theories of Intelligence
- Spearman's theory highlights two factors of intelligence: a general intelligence factor (g) and specific abilities (s) related to particular tasks.
- Thurstone proposed the concept of primary mental abilities, identifying seven clusters of intelligence that function independently from one another.
- Gardner's theory posits the existence of multiple intelligences, suggesting that individuals possess various types of intelligence beyond traditional academic skills, such as musical, spatial, and interpersonal intelligences.
- Sternberg introduced the triarchic theory of intelligence, outlining three key components: analytical intelligence (problem-solving), creative intelligence (innovation), and practical intelligence (adapting to everyday life).
- Goleman's work centered around emotional intelligence, emphasizing the ability to recognize, understand, and manage one's own emotions as well as the emotions of others.
- The Stanford-Binet Scales is a widely recognized intelligence test that assesses school knowledge, calculating IQ based on the formula: (mental age / chronological age) x 100.
- Wechsler Scales, known for its inclusion of verbal and performance intelligence measures, is one of the most commonly used assessments today.
