2.  List behaviors you believe to be characteristic of particularly intelligent people and particularly unintelligent people.  Intelligence- the ability to learn from experience, solve problems, and use knowledge to adapt to new situations.  Is intelligence one general ability or Several specific abilities?

3.  Charles Spearman (1863-1945) believed we have one GENERAL INTELLIGENCE (g)  GENERAL INTELLIGENCE - underlies specific mental abilities and is measured by every task on an intelligence test.  This general mental capacity is demonstrated through FACTOR ANALYSIS.  FACTOR ANALYSIS – a statistical procedure that identifies clusters of related items.

4. Gardner’s Eight Intelligences  1. Linguistic -T.S. Eliot, Poet  2. Logical-mathematical – Albert Einstein  3. Musical – Mozart, composer  4. Spatial – Picasso, artist  5. Bodily-kinesthetic – Jordan, athlete  6. Intrapersonal (self) – Freud, Psychiatrist  7. Interpersonal (other people) – Ghandi, leader  Naturalist – Darwin, naturalist Sternberg’s Three Intelligences  Analytical Intelligence – ability to solve well defined problems with one specific answer.  Creative Intelligence – demonstrated in reacting adaptively to novel situations and creating novel ideas.  Practical Intelligence – required for everyday tasks, which may be undefined and may have multiple solutions.

6. Perceive Emotions: recognize them in faces, music, and stories Understand Emotions: predict them and how they change and blend. Manage Emotions: know how to express them in varied situations. Use Emotions: to enable adaptive or creative thinking.

13. Standardization: defining meaningful scores by comparison with the performance of a pretested group. Normal Curve: scores tend to form this shape. Reliability: the extent to which a test yields consistent results. Validity: the extent to which a test measures or predicts what it is supposed to. Content Validity: the extent to which a test samples behavior that is of interest. Predictive Validity: the success with which a test predicts the behavior it is designed to predict.

14. Intellectual Disability: a condition of limited mental ability, indicated by a score of 70 or below (formerly referred to as mental retardation) LOW EXTREME
