Question 2

A high school student consistently achieves top marks across all subjects, including Physics, Literature, and History, and also excels in logical reasoning competitions. Which theory of intelligence best accounts for this student's broad academic success?

Accepted Answer

C. Spearman's Two-Factor Theory — Spearman's Two-Factor Theory posits a 'g-factor' (general intelligence) that underlies performance across a wide range of cognitive tasks. This 'g-factor' explains why a student might perform consistently well in diverse academic subjects and logical reasoning, indicating a strong general intellectual ability.
