Comparing Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences and Spearman's Two-Factor Theory, which of the following statements most accurately explains the fundamental difference between the two theories?

Detailed Explanation & Solution

Charles Spearman proposed the 'Two-Factor Theory' of intelligence in 1904, according to which intelligence consists of a general factor (g-factor) and several specific factors (s-factors). In contrast, Howard Gardner proposed the Theory of Multiple Intelligences in 1983, denying that intelligence is a single general ability; rather, according to him, intelligence is of many independent types such as linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, musical, etc.
