    Triarchic Theory of Intellegence - Robert J. Sternberg

    Uploaded by

    Leonard Plaza
    Sternberg developed the triarchic theory of intelligence which describes three types of thinking: analytical, creative, and practical. Analytical thinking involves analyzing, comparing, evaluating, and assessing. Creative thinking focuses on developing new ideas and solutions. Practical thinking focuses on selecting and shaping real world environments to attain a fit with one's context. Sternberg proposes that true intelligence involves balancing all three types of thinking with metacognition. He describes seven types of people based on their strengths in the three areas.

    Sternberg's triarchic theory proposes three types of intelligence: analytical, creative, and practical thinking. Each type focuses on different mental processes and ways of thinking.

    The three types are analytical thinking, creative thinking, and practical thinking.

    The components of analytical thinking are metacomponents, performance, and knowledge acquisition.

    TRIARCHIC THEORY

    OF INTELLIGENCE
    INTELLIGENCE
    ▪Intelligence refers to individuals’ abilities to
    understand
    Complex ideas, to adapt effectively to the environment,
    to learn from experience, to engage invarious forms of
    reasoning and to overcome obstacles by careful thought
    Neisseretal,1996).
    ▪ Intelligence is the mental activity directed toward
    purposive adaptation to, selection and shaping
    of real-world environments relevant to one’s
    life (Sternberg,1985).
    INTELLIGENCE
    ROBERT J. STERNBERG

    A prominent figure in the


    research of human
    intelligence, developed
    an alternative
    intelligence model,
    comprising 3 elements of
    thinking process kept in
    balance by
    metacognition.
    STENBERG’S TRIARCHIC THEORY OF
    INTELLIGENCE

    TRIARCHIC THEORY

    COMPONENTIAL EXPERENTIAL CONTEXTUAL

    •Metacomponents •Novelty •Adaption

    •Performance •Automation •Selection

    •Knowledge acquisition •Shaping


    Sternberg describes three different kinds of
    intelligence in his model:
    Analytical Thinking (Componential)

    •Focuses on planning,
    monitoring reflection
    and transfer.

    •Is influential in being


    able to take apart
    problems and being
    able to see solutions
    not often seen.
    *Analytical Thinking
     METACOMPONENTS – Control, monitor
    and evaluate cognitive processing.

     PERFORMANCE – Execute strategies


    assembled by the metacomponents . They
    are the basic operations involved in any
    cognitive act.

     KNOWLEDGE ACQUISITION – Are the


    process used in gaining and storing new
    knowledge.
    CREATIVE THINKING ( EXPERIENTIAL)

    • Focusing on
    developing, applying
    new ideas and
    creating solutions.

    • Deals with how well a


    task is performed
    with regard to how
    familiar it is
    *Creative thinking

     NOVELTY - situation that you have


    never experienced.

     AUTOMATION – has been performed


    multiple times and can now be done with
    little or more extra thoughts.
    PRACTICAL THINKING (CONTEXTUAL)

    •Focuses on selecting
    and shaping real world
    environments and
    experiences.

    •Deals with the mental


    activity involved in
    attaining fit to context.
    *Practical Thinking

     ADAPTATION – Occurs when one makes


    a change within oneself in order to better
    adjust to one’s surroundings.
     SHAPING – Occurring when one’s changes
    their environment to better suit one’s
    needs.
     SELECTION – Replace the previous,
    unsatisfying undertaken when a
    completely new alternate environment is
    found to meet individual’s goals.

    Typology of people based on the
    triarchic intelligence:

    • The Analyzer

    •The Creator

    •The Practioner

    •The Analytical Creator

    •The Analytical Practioner

    •The Creative Practioner

    •The Consummate Balancer


    ANALYZER- fares well in academic environments, but isn’t likely to make
    creative contribution to the field.

    CREATOR- generates ideas easily, but is unable to analyze these ideas or to


    put them into practice.

    PRACTIONER- is persuasive and maybe entertaining, but lacks substance in


    thinking.

    ANALYTIC CREATOR- is able analyze created ideas, but doesn’t easily


    communicate these ideas to others.

    ANALYTIC PRACTIONER- succeeds in conventional terms because high IQ


    is translated into practical work, but he is unlikely to make a lasting
    contribution.

    CREATIVE PRACTIONER- has the ability to come up with new ideas and
    can persuade other people of the value of these ideas, regardless whether
    those ideas are worth it or not.

    CONSUMATE BALANCER- is able to apply all of three intelligences as


    needed, and is therefore in the best position to make a valuable contribution
    to society.
