Suyash is a high school student who excels in his academics and has a strong interest in problem-solving. He possesses different types of intelligence as proposed by Sternberg's triarchic theory of intelligence.

Assertion: Componential intelligence consists of two components: knowledge acquisition and performance component.

Reasoning: The performance component of componential intelligence involves applying knowledge and skills in real-world situations.

Both Assertion and reasoning are false.

The correct answer is Option 3: Both Assertion and reasoning are false.

Assertion: Componential intelligence consists of two components: knowledge acquisition and performance component. This is false. Componential intelligence consists of three components knowledge acquisition, meta or a higher order component and performance component

Reasoning: The performance component of componential intelligence is involved in using past experiences creatively to solve novel problems. This is false. Experiential or creative intelligence ( not performance component) is involved in using past experiences creatively to solve novel problems. Experiential or creative intelligence is NOT a component of componential intelligence.

Componential Intelligence : Componential or analytical intelligence is the analysis of information to solve problems. Persons high on this ability think analytically and critically and succeed in schools. This intelligence has three components, each serving a different function. First is the knowledge acquisition component, which is responsible for learning and acquisition of the ways of doing things. The second is the meta or a higher order component, which involves planning concerning what to do and how to do. The third is the performance component, which involves actually doing things.

Experiential Intelligence: Experiential or creative intelligence is involved in using past experiences creatively to solve novel problems. It is reflected in creative performance. Persons high on this aspect integrate different experiences in an original way to make new discoveries and inventions. They quickly find out which information is crucial in a given situation
