Katie was never very good in school, and she dropped out in the 10th grade. She never seemed able to learn information from books and studying. However, shortly after she got a job in a supermarket, she very quickly moved into a manager's position, because she was a very quick thinker and was able to solve problems. From the perspective of Cattell's theory of intelligence, she had: a. high crystallized intelligence and high fluid intelligence b. high crystallized intelligence and low fluid intelligence c. low crystallized intelligence and high fluid intelligence d. low crystallized intelligence and low fluid intelligence

Respuesta :

The answer is C.

"Crystallized intelligence" is the ability to use skills, knowledge, and experience. It does not equate to memory, but it does rely on accessing information from long-term memory.

"Fluid intelligence" is the capacity to think logically and solve problems in novel situations, independent of acquired knowledge..
