Give a summary, a strength, and a weakness of Charles Spearman's idea of general intelligence. intelligences. achievement and aptitude tests? 36. Name and describe Robert Sternberg's three 37. What are the fundamental differences betweenExplanation / Answer
1.Option B)
Stanford Binet Test and Wechsler Intelligence Scale are both commonly used tests for measuring intelligence.A major difference between the two scales is that Wechsler scales are scored to give an overall IQ , a score called Full scale IQ and also separate verbal and performance IQ scores, whereas the Stanford-Binet generates a single composite IQ score.
2.Option D) Savant Syndrome - when a person with low mental ability has an above average skill or ability in a specific area , like for example music, painting, memorizing,mathematics etc.
phi phenomenon- a type of perceptual illusion, still images shen seen in quick succession are perceived as in motion by our eyes.
Mental Regardation, now known as intellectual disability, individual with ID has lower level of skills required for everyday living along with below average intelligence.There are four levels of ID: mild, moderate, severe, and profound depending on the severity of the low IQ scores.
Autism, a developmental disorder characterized by having problems in social interaction and communication and repetitive behavior.
selective attention - focussing on certain stimuli while ignoring others.
3.Charles Spearman's theory of intelligence is called two factor theory of intelligence.Spearman used factor analysis to find a link between performance on various cognitive abilities.According to him, there are 2 factors
Strength of this theory is that g is a good predictor of performance in academic and work settings, giving a comprehensive score of intelligence.Sternberg and Gardner also found evidence for g in their research for their own theories.A weakness of this theory is that it focuses on cognitive abilities but neglects motor, perceptual, musical, practical, and creative abilities, which can also indicate intelligence. Also the cognitive abilities are studied are those which are more common in Western countries and ignores specific abilities of other cultures.
