The Structure of Intellect Model proposed by J.P. Guilford classified intellectual abilities into Operations, Contents, and Products. In the context of this model, which of the following combinations correctly represents its sub-components under these three dimensions?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Understanding Guilford's Structure of Intellect Model
J.P. Guilford proposed the Structure of Intellect (SI) theory, which classifies intelligence based on three interacting dimensions: Operations, Contents, and Products.
- Operations: Refers to the mental processes used, including cognition, memory recording, memory retention, divergent thinking, convergent thinking, and evaluation.
- Contents: Refers to the broad areas of information to which the intellect is applied, including figural, symbolic, semantic, and behavioral.
- Products: Refers to the forms that information takes as it is processed, including units, classes, relations, systems, transformations, and implications.
Option (a) correctly lists the sub-components belonging to these respective dimensions as defined in Guilford's model.

With reference to the Structure of Intellect (SOI) theory of intelligence, consider the following statements: 1. The three-dimensional model of the Structure of Intellect was propounded by J.P. Guilford, who classified mental abilities into three independent dimensions: Contents, Operations, and Products. 2. According to Guilford's initial model, intelligence consisted of a total of 4×5×6 = 120 independent intellectual factors, which was later revised and expanded to a total of 150 and ultimately 180 factors. 3. Under this theory, the 'Contents' dimension includes mental materials such as symbolic, semantic, behavioral, and figural, upon which the operations of the mind act. Which of the statement(s) given above is/are correct?
