Match List I with List II
| LIST I (Name of the theory) | LIST II (Author) | ||
| A. | Structure-of-Intellect Model | I. | Das and Naglieri |
| B. | Componential Intelligence | II. | Alfred Binet |
| C. | Cognitive Assessment System (CAS) | III. | J. P. Guilford |
| D. | Uni/one Factor Theory | IV. | Robert Sternberg |
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
(A) Structure-of-Intellect Model — this matches (III) J. P. Guilford. Guilford’s model classifies intellectual traits among three dimensions: operations, contents and products, giving 6 × 5 × 6 = 180 cells.
(B) Componential Intelligence — this matches (IV) Robert Sternberg. Componential (analytical) intelligence is one of the three types in Sternberg’s triarchic theory, along with experiential and contextual intelligence.
(C) Cognitive Assessment System (CAS) — this matches (I) Das and Naglieri. Das and Naglieri, who developed the PASS model, also built this battery of tests of verbal and non-verbal tasks for individuals between 5 and 18 years of age.
(D) Uni/one Factor Theory — this matches (II) Alfred Binet. Binet conceptualised intelligence as one similar set of abilities that can be used for solving any problem; his theory is called the uni or one factor theory.
NCERT (2025-26): “Theories of Intelligence … Binet’s theory of intelligence was rather simple as it arose from his interest in differentiating more intelligent from less intelligent individuals. He, therefore, conceptualised intelligence as consisting of one similar set of abilities which can be used for solving any or every problem in an individual’s environment. His theory of intelligence is called Uni or one factor theory of intelligence.…” “…J.P. Guilford proposed the structure-of-intellect model which classifies intellectual traits among three dimensions: operations, contents, and products.…” “Triarchic Theory of Intelligence … Robert Sternberg (1985) proposed the triarchic theory of intelligence. Sternberg views intelligence as ‘the ability to adapt, to shape and select environment to accomplish one’s goals and those of one’s society and culture’. According to this theory, there are three basic types of intelligence: Componential, Experiential, and Contextual.…” “Planning, Attention-arousal, and Simultaneous-successive (PASS) Model of Intelligence … Das and Naglieri have also developed a battery of tests, known as the Cognitive Assessment System (CAS).…” |
