Detailed Explanation
Charles Spearman propounded the Two-Factor Theory of intelligence in 1904. According to him, two factors operate in every intellectual activity: (1) 'G-Factor' (General Factor) which is a general mental energy, innate, and used in varying amounts in all intellectual tasks; and (2) 'S-Factor' (Specific Factor) which relates to specific abilities, acquired or developed through training, learning, and environment. Option (A) most accurately explains the true psychological implications of this theory.
