Answer 1

Answer:

B. Sternberg's triarchic theory of intelligence

• Robert Sternberg's triarchic theory of intelligence (1985) proposes that there are three components of intelligence:

1. Analytical Intelligence: The ability to analyze, evaluate, and solve problems using logical reasoning and academic skills.

2. Creative Intelligence: The ability to generate new ideas, think outside the box, and find novel solutions to problems.

3. Contextual Intelligence (also known as Practical Intelligence): The ability to adapt to real-world situations, use practical knowledge, and navigate social contexts.

• Sternberg's theory challenges traditional notions of intelligence, emphasizing that there are multiple aspects of intelligence beyond traditional IQ scores.
