How does the triarchic theory help us to understand intelligence?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Robert J. Sternberg proposes a theory of intelligence based on information processing approach in 1985 known as the Triarchic theory of intelligence.
According to Sternberg, intelligence is an ability to adapt, to shape and select environment to accomplish ones goals and those of ones society and culture.
This theory attempts to understand the cognitive processes involved in problem solving.
According to him there are three types of intelligences :-
1. Componential intelligence (Analytical) :- This dimension specifies the cognitive processes that underlie an intelligent behaviour. This dimension serves three different functions:-
- Knowledge acquisition components :- These are the processes used in learning, encoding, combining and comparing information.
- Metacomponents :- ‘Meta’ means higher. These are executive processes. They control monitor and evaluate cognitive processing.
- Performance components :- These components execute strategies prepared by metacomponents to perform a task.For example, While studying students plan the lesson chapterwise, they make schedules, categories the learning material and do integrate the information to comprehend well.
2. Experiential intelligence (Creative) :- This dimension specifies how experiences effect intelligence and how intelligence effects a person’s experiences.
- Experiential intelligence refers to an individual’s ability to make use of one’s past experiences to deal with novel situations creatively and effectively.
- This intelligence is mostly high among scientists and creative people.
- For example if a person is trapped in a room, he finds out a way of coming out of the room using rope or ladder etc. in a creative way. He had some knowledge of getting out from this situation by watching out a movie few years back.
3. Contextual intelligence (Practical) :- This dimension specifies the ability to deal with environmental demands on daily basis.
- It is individual’s ability to make use of his/her potential to deal with day-to-day life.
- It may be called street smartness or ‘business sense’.
- People high in this ability are successful in life.
- It deals with the ways people handle effectively their environmental demands and adapt to different contexts with available resources.

Two statements are given in the question below as Assertion (A) and Reasoning (R).

Read the case given below and answer the questions by choosing the most appropriate option:
This is a story of three students Ruby, Radhika and Shankar who were enrolled in an Undergraduate Psychology Program in a University. Ruby was the admission officer’s dream. She was selected for the program as she had perfect entrance test scores, outstanding grades and excellent letters of recommendation. But when it was time for Ruby to start coming up with ideas of her own, she disappointed her professors.
On the other hand, Radhika did not meet the admission officer’s expectations. She had good grades but low entrance exam scores. However, her letters of recommendation described her as a creative young woman. She could design and implement research work with minimal guidance at college.
Shankar ranked somewhere in between the two students. He was satisfactory on almost every traditional measure of success. But rather than falling somewhere in the middle of his class at college, Shankar proved to be an outstanding student. His strength lay in the ability to not only adapt well to the demands of his new environment but also to modify the environment to suit his needs.
Identify the type of intelligence Ruby possesses.

Read the case study and answer the question that follows:
| When Srikanth Bolla was born, neighbours in the village suggested that his parents smother him. It was better than the pain they would have to go through their lifetime, some said. He is a “useless” baby without eyes; being born blind is a sin, others added. Twenty-three years later, Srikanth is standing tall living by his conviction that if the “world looks at me and says, Srikanth, you can do nothing, I look back at the world and say, I can do anything.” Srikanth is the Founder and CEO of Hyderabad-based Bollant Industries, an organisation that employs uneducated and challenged employees to manufacture eco-friendly, disposable consumer packaging solutions, which is worth ₹ 50 crore. He considers himself the luckiest man alive, not because he is now a millionaire but because his uneducated parents, who earned ₹ 20,000 a year, did not heed any of the ‘advice’ they received and raised him with love and affection. “They are the richest people I know,” says Srikanth. |
Srikanth is standing tall living by his conviction that if the "world looks at me and says, 'Srikanth, you can do nothing', I look back at the world and say, I can do anything." According to Gardner's multiple theory of intelligences, which kind of intelligence explains this? Discuss this intelligence in brief.
