Charles Spearman correct answers In the early 1900s, ___________________ proposed a theory:
Intelligence is a singular characteristic
"g" correct answers Spearman labeled this singular characteristic for intellience as "_____" for
general intelligence and argued that it represented a person's global, overall intellectual ability
Charles Spearman correct answers His theory was based on research in which he measured many
different, specific capabilities of his participants, including academic abilities and sensory-
discrimination tasks
true correct answers t or f: The primary finding of Spearman's theory was a strong correlation
between wide range of abilities, suggesting that a single factor underlies many difference specific
abilities.
("s") correct answers Spearman acknowledged that more specific abilities _______ existed, but
he argued that they played a relatively minor role in intelligence
Louis Thurstone correct answers was among the first and the strongest opponents to Spearman's
singular theory of intelligence.
false - According to Thurstone, intelligence should not be understood as a single, unified ability
but as numerous distinct abilities that have little relationship to one another. correct answers t or
f: According to Thurstone, intelligence should be understood as a single, unified ability
multiple factor analysis correct answers Thurstone was a pioneer of the statistical procedure
called _________________, which enabled him to identify underlying factors in a large data set
These factors were given labels such as verbal comprehension, numerical ability, spatial
reasoning, and memory
three-stratum theory of intelligence correct answers This model, like most contemporary models
of intelligence, not only acknowledges "g" but also recognizes that more specific abilities exist as
well
, Intelligence is not one thing; it is many things correct answers Thurstone's fundamental point:
hierarchical model of intelligence correct answers Spearman and Thurstone each acknowledged
the validity of the other's arguments and came to somewhat of a compromise
settled on a ______________________ in which specific abilities ("s") existed and were
important, but they were all at least somewhat related to one another and to a global, overall,
general intelligence ("g")
fluid and crystallized intelligence correct answers James Cattell proposed two separate
intelligences:
fluid intelligence correct answers —the ability to reason when faced with novel problems
crystallized intelligence correct answers —the body of knowledge one has accumulated as a
result of life experiences.
true correct answers t or f: With exactly two very broad categories of intelligence, Cattell's
theory falls somewhere between Spearman's theory of a singular intelligence and Thurstone's
theory of many intelligences
three-stratum theory of intelligence correct answers John Carroll's (2005)
_________________________, in which intelligence operates at three levels: a single "g" at the
top, eight broad factors immediately beneath "g," and more than 60 highly specific abilities
beneath these broad factors
false - most contemporary intelligence tests mirror this view by producing a single overall score
—one number to represent how intelligent a person is—in addition to a number of other scores
representing more specific abilities correct answers t or f: most contemporary intelligence tests
mirror the view by producing a variety of overall score—variety of numbers representing how
intelligent a person is
• Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale—Fourth Edition (WAIS-IV)
• Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children—Fifth Edition (WISC-V)
• Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence—Fourth Edition (WPPSI-IV) correct
answers three separate Wechsler intelligence tests, each the most widely used among
psychologists for its respective age range
false - Collectively, the three Wechsler intelligence tests cover virtually the entire life span.
correct answers t or f: Collectively, the three Wechsler intelligence tests cover virtually only one
point in our life span
true correct answers t or f: the three Wechsler intelligence tests are indeed separate tests rather
than slight variants of one another.
