“…I have long believed that IQ is not the whole story of intelligence. Like McClelland , Gardner , and Ceci , among others, I believe that IQ tests are narrow in what they assess as intelligence (see also ). But if a score on an IQ test is not the whole story, what is?…”

In this article, I describe chronologically my attempts over a 40‐year career to understand the nature of human intelligence. I explain how later attempts built on earlier ones, with each attempt revealing the earlier one to be too limited and narrow in the questions it asked. In my early work, I envisioned intelligence in terms of components of information processing. Later, I viewed these components as contributing to three distinct but related aspects of intelligence: analytical, creative, and practical. I came to realize the importance of contextual factors in determining what constitutes adaptive behavior. Still later, I viewed wisdom as part of the mix. The search has been rewarding, except for the fact that I have not yet completed it and never will.

“…Esta aptitud se correlaciona con el factor ideativo de la comprensión verbal (Thurstone, 1938(Thurstone, , 1940, que es común al razonamiento deductivo, serial y probabilístico, de clasificación y de resolución de problemas (Yela, 1987). Las investigaciones sobre inteligencia humana y razonamiento han encontrado que el rendimiento en analogías representa una de las mejores medidas de la comprensión verbal y el pensamiento analítico (Gentner, Holyoak & Kokinov, 2001;Sternberg, 1985Sternberg, , 2001Sternberg, , 2015. Numerosos estudios indican que se trata de una capacidad crítica para el éxito tanto académico como profesional (Hey, Linsey, Agogino & Wood, 2008;Jones & Estes, 2015;Kuncel & Hezlett, 2007;Kuncel, Hezlett & Ones, 2004;Meagher, 2012;Wendler & Bridgeman, 2014;Young, Klieger, Bochenek, Li & Cline, 2014).…”

Este trabajo busca actualizar los estudios psicométricos en la Argentina. Se desarrolló un Test Adaptativo Informatizado (TAI) a partir de un Banco de Ítems (BI) de Analogías Verbales y se programó con FastTEST Pro versión 2.0. Se contó con una muestra de 108 estudiantes universitarios. Se compararon los resultados obtenidos a partir de tres criterios de finalización distintos del TAI (longitud fija de 32 ítems, longitud variable al alcanzar un error de .40 y un error de .30). Las tres variantes obtuvieron correlaciones significativamente altas (r > .90; p < .001) con el nivel de rasgo estimado a partir del BI. El TAI de longitud fija de 32 ítems presentó el balance óptimo entre precisión y longitud dadas las características del BI. Palabras clave: test adaptativo informatizado; banco de ítems; teoría de respuesta al ítem; razonamiento verbal; estudiantes universitarios. Verbal Analogies Computerized Adaptive Test: Comparison of Stopping Rules This study seeks to update Argentine psychometric studies. A Computerized Adaptive Test (CAT) was developed from a Verbal Analogies Item Bank (IB); it was programmed with FastTEST Pro version 2.0. A sample of 108 undergraduate students was assessed.

“…The theory of Multiple Intelligence fragments the domain of “intelligence” into several modalities such as linguistic, logical, kinesthetic, spatial, musical, naturalist, interpersonal, and intrapersonal (Sternberg, ). Among these, spatial intelligence refers to the ability to analyze an object in three‐dimensional (3D) and draw conclusions from limited information (Hegarty, ).…”

This study evaluated effect of mental rotation (MR) training on learning outcomes and explored effectiveness of teaching via three-dimensional (3D) software among medical students with diverse spatial intelligence. Data from n = 67 student volunteers were included. A preliminary test was conducted to obtain baseline level of MR competency and was utilized to assign participants to two experimental conditions, i.e., trained group (n = 25) and untrained group (n = 42). Data on the effectiveness of training were collected to measure participants' speed and accuracy in performing various MR activities. Six weeks later, a large class format (LCF) session was conducted for all students using 3D software. The usefulness of technologyassisted learning at the LCF was evaluated via a pre-and post-test. Students' feedback regarding MR training and use of 3D software was acquired through questionnaires. MR scores of the trainees improved from 25.9±4.6 points to 28.1±4.4 (P = 0.011) while time taken to complete the tasks reduced from 20.9±3.9 to 12.2±4.4 minutes. Males scored higher than females in all components (P = 0.016). Further, higher pre-and post-test scores were observed in trained (9.0±1.9 and 12.3±1.6) versus untrained group (7.8±1.8; 10.8±1.8). Although mixed-design analysis of variance suggested significant difference in their test scores (P < 0.001), both groups reported similar trend in improvement by means of 3D software (P = 0.54). Ninety-seven percent of students reported technology-assisted learning as an effective means of instruction and found use of 3D software superior to plastic models. Software based on 3D technologies could be adopted as an effective teaching pedagogy to support learning across students with diverse levels of mental rotation abilities. Anat Sci Educ 12: 550-560.

Multiple Intelligences in the New Age of Thinking

Abstract: In this chapter, I describe two theories that involve the idea of "multiple intelligences." The fi rst is the theory of multiple intelligence (MI theory-Gardner 1983. The second is the theory of successful intelligence (Sternberg
