Detailed Explanation
Detailed Comparison
According to Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences, intelligence is not a single unified entity but rather a collection of multiple autonomous types of intelligence (such as linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, musical, bodily-kinesthetic, intrapersonal, interpersonal, and naturalistic).
In contrast, Charles Spearman in his Two-Factor Theory posited that intellectual activities involve a general mental energy or 'g-factor' (General Factor) along with some specific 's-factors' (Specific Factors).
- Gardner's Focus: Pluralistic view, emphasizing domain-specific independent abilities.
- Spearman's Focus: Hierarchical view, emphasizing a core general underlying cognitive factor.
