Three views of intelligence: | cognitive, information processing, psychometric |
Three theories in psychometric view: | unitrait, dual trait, multi trait |
The father of intelligence testing: | Binet |
Gauge children's abilities to reason, to judge, to memorize, to comprehend, and to attend. | to determine which children had the mental capacity to profit from schooling (find summary score) |

Cognitive Style: Less attentive to detail, more social, more affected by feedback, read others more easily, good in group activities: | The Field Dependent (Global Thinkers) |

tend to respond quickly and move on, rarely double-checking: | impulsive learners (may make more errors with reasoning problems) |
more likely to consider alternatives before settling on a solution: | reflective thinkers |
