The textbook discusses a variety of theorists who propose, in contrast to Spearman, that intelligence is composed of several distinct aptitudes or abilities rather than a single, general one.
You are tasked with developing your own theory of intelligence. (Do not merely "steal" from the other theorists). Please write a two to three-page paper proposing your own theory and then create an intelligence test. Your test should assess more than the abilities required to succeed academically. In addition, you should describe in your paper: (a) the rationale and components (i.e., distinct aptitudes or abilities) of the test, (b) how you would standardize the test and determine its reliability and validity, (c) note any similarities or differences to other intelligence tests (such as the Stanford-Binet, the WAIS-R, WISC-III, or even other multiple intelligence tests).
