Question:

According to Arthur Jensen's hierarchical model of intelligence, which level involves higher-order skills that transform input to produce an effective output?

Options:

Level I 

Level II 

Associative Learning

Cognitive Competence

Correct Answer:

Level II 

Explanation:

Arthur Jensen proposed a hierarchical model of intelligence consisting of abilities operating at two levels, called Level I and Level II. Level I is the associative learning in which output is more or less similar to the input (e.g., rote learning and memory). Level II, called cognitive competence, involves higher-order skills as they transform the input to produce an effective output.
