(1981) Contacted people  In a train station  Entering a supermarket  Studying in a university library Asked them to list behaviors characteristic of an intelligent person Took this list and had both lay-persons & psychologists rate the importance of each of the behaviors in describing the “ideally intelligent” person

6. Quotes about intelligence " The ability to carry out abstract thinking." (Terman, 1921) "The capacity to acquire capacity." (Woodrow, 1921) "A global concept that involves an individual's ability to act purposefully, think rationally, and deal effectively with the environment." (Wechsler, 1958) "A person possesses intelligence insofar as he had learned, or can learn, to adjust himself to his environment." (Colvin, cited in Sternberg, 1982) "Intelligence is the ability to use optimally limited resources - including time - to achieve goals." (Kurzweil, 1999) "Intelligence is what you do when you don't know what to do." (unknown)

7. Review What is the difference between achievement and intelligence? Achievement refers to knowledge and skills gained from experience. Achievement focuses on things you know you can do. Achievement involves specific content such as Spanish, calculus, history, psychology, etc. Intelligence can provide the basis for achievement but is not the same thing. Intelligence is the ability to learn from experience, think rationally, and to deal effectively with the environment.

10. Name of theoryName of person associatedDescription of theory Two-Factor Theory Charles Spearman Theory of Primary Mental Abilities Theory of Multiple Intelligences Triarchic Theory Emotional Intelligence Theories Chart

11. Two-Factor Theory Created by British psychologist Charles Spearman He suggested all the behaviors we consider to be intelligent have a common underlying factor “g” which stands for “general intelligence”. Spearman noted that people who do well in one area usually do well in others. (Yet even the most capable people are relatively better at some things than others) For this reason, he suggested that specific, or “s” factors account for particular abilities

12. Two-Factor Theory Proposed that intelligence consisted of 2 kinds of factors: a single “general” factor, g, and numerous specific factors (s1, s2, s3, etc.) g factor was the most important; s factors were very specific to particular tests

13. Theory of Primary Mental Abilities Louis Thurstone American Psychologist Louis Thurstone Believed that nine separate factors make up intelligence. These primary mental abilities include: 1) Visual and spatial ability 2) Perceptual speed 3) Numerical ability 4) Verbal meaning 5) Memory 6) Word fluency 7) Reasoning 8) Deductive reasoning 9) Inductive reasoning

14. Primary Mental Abilities (Continued) Thurstone believed that people can be high in one factor and low in another Recent research provides some support for the factor idea of intelligence; if there were just one g factor, then all the different abilities Thurstone said were separate should decline at the same rate; this doesn’t happen; things like verbal comprehension, word fluency, inductive reasoning, decline much more slowly than space and number abilities

15. Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences Howard Gardner- Argues for existence of several relatively independent human intelligences- that we all have to some degree within us.  Linguistic – sensitivity to language, grasp new meanings easily  Musical – sensitivity to speech and tone  Logical-Mathematical – abstract reasoning & manipulation of symbols  Visual-Spatial – relations among objects, re-create visual images

16. Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences (Cont.)  Bodily-Kinesthetic – represent ideas in movement  Intrapersonal (Personal) – sensitivity and understanding of self/ inner feelings  Interpersonal (Social) – sensitivity to motives, feelings, and behaviors of others  Naturalist-involves the ability to recognize patterns and relationships to nature criteria for an autonomous intelligence includes:  potential isolation by brain damage – faculty can be destroyed or spared in isolation  existence of savants – who are talented in area but in no others

19. Difference between Thurstone and Gardner A major difference between Thurstone and Gardner’s theories is that Thurstone believed that the nine factors he identified when taken together make up intelligence. Gardner on the other hand, proposes that the seven different intelligences are independent of each other. Gardner=separate and distinct intelligences

20. Sternberg’s Triarchic Theory Psychologist Robert Sternberg believes that different kinds of intelligence all work together. Created a three-level (triarchic) model of intelligence. According to Sternberg intelligence includes analytic, creative, and practical abilities. Analytic- ability to solve problems Creative- ability to deal with new situations Practical- ability to accomplish everyday tasks.

22. Emotional Intelligence Psychologist Daniel Goleman, was interested in why smart people are not always as successful as might be expected. Proposes another kind of intelligence: emotional intelligence.
