• Louis L. Thurstone- Primary Mental Abilities
• Robert Sternberg- Triachic Theory of
Intelligence
• Daniel Goleman- Emotional Intelligence
Model

20. THEORIES OF INTELLIGENCE
GENERAL INTELLIGENCE THEORY
General intelligence, also known as g factor, refers
to the existence of a broad mental capacity that
influences performance on cognitive ability
measures. Charles Spearman first described the
existence of general intelligence in 1904.
• According to Spearman, this g factor was
responsible for overall performance on mental
ability tests.

24. GENERAL INTELLIGENCE THEORY
• Spearman also felt that levels of general
intelligence could predict levels of specific
abilities, s factor.

25. GENERAL INTELLIGENCE THEORY
CHARACTERISTICS OF ‘G’ FACTOR:
• It is universal inborn ability.
• It is general mental energy.
• It is constant.
• The amount of ‘g’ differs from individual to
individual.
• It is used in every activity of life.
• Greater the ‘g’ in an individual, greater is his
success in life.

26. GENERAL INTELLIGENCE THEORY
CHARACTERISTICS OF ‘S’ FACTOR:
• It is learned and acquired in the environment.
• It varies from activity to activity in the same
individual.
• Individuals differ in the amount of ‘S’ ability.

27. Louis L. Thurstone- Primary Mental
Abilities
PRIMARY MENTAL ABILITIES
Psychologist Louis L. Thurstone (1887- 1955)
offered a differing theory of intelligence.
Instead of viewing intelligence as a single,
general ability, Thurstone’s theory focused on
seven different ‘primary mental abilities’
(Thurstone, 1938).

30. TRIARCHIC THEORY OF INTELLIGENCE
Psychologist Robert Sternberg defined
intelligence as “mental activity directed toward
purposive adaptation to, selection and shaping
of real- world environments relevant to one’s
life”.
Sternberg proposed what he refers to as
‘successful intelligence’, which is comprised of 3
different factors:

32. TRIARCHIC THEORY OF INTELLIGENCE
• Analytical Intelligence: This component refers
to problem- solving abilities.
• Creative Intelligence: This aspect of
intelligence involves the ability to deal with
new situations using past experiences and
current skills.
• Practical Intelligence: This element refers to
the ability to adapt to a changing
environment.

34. CATTELL’S FLUID AND CRYSTALLIZED THEORY
The fluid aspect of this theory says that
intelligence is a basic capacity due to genetic
potentiality. While this is affected by the past
and new experiences, the crystallized theory is a
capacity resultant of experiences, learning and
environment.

35. CATTELL’S FLUID AND CRYSTALLIZED
THEORY
• CONCEPT
Fluid intelligence is the capacity for insight into
complex relationships, acquiring new concepts,
demonstrates general brightness and
adaptability in novel situations while crystallized
intelligence is a combination of acquired
knowledge and developed of intellectual skills.

37. EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
The Emotional Competencies (Goleman) model
The model introduced by Daniel Goleman focuse
on EI as a wide array of competencies and skills
that drive leadership performance.
Goleman’s model outlines 4 main EI constructs:

41. EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
• Self- awareness: the ability to read one’s emotions and
recognize their impact while using gut feeling to guide
decisions.
• Self- management: involves controlling one’s emotions
and impulses and adapting to changing circumstances.
• Social- awareness: the ability to sense, understand and
react to other’s emotions while comprehending social
networks.
• Relationship management: the ability to inspire,
influence and develop others while managing conflict.
