He believes that we are born with a general emotional intelligence that determines our potentiomal for learning emotional competencies. He also incorporated the five components of EQ (emotional self awareness, self regulation, motivation, empathy, social skills). 


Strength: Can be tested and assesses all four components (perceiving, understanding, managing, and using emotions)

Weakness: Some are conceded that it stretches the concept of intelligence too far.

Weakness: some argue that intelligence can be understood as two capacities (crystallized and fluid) not just one g. Some others, like Gardener, proposed even more areas of intelligence. 
Strength: this theory explained the tendency for people to score well in multiple areas.

His theory is that there are eight different intelligences to account for a broader range of human potential in children and adults. The types of intelligence are: linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist.

One strength of the theory is that it helps explain individual differences in different types of mental performance.

One weakness is that many people question if the eight categories are really intelligences, or if they’re just abilities people may have.

The Triarhic theory describes three distinct types of intelligence that a person can possess. He calls the three theory’s practical intelligenc, creative intelligence, and analytical intellegence.

Strength- If a person who has more strength in one component, can thrive more than others 

Weakness- you can be too broad because there are only three components and can be said to be more of a social skill rather than a form of intelligence.]]> 2018-02-22 16:02:43 UTC https://padlet.com/788511/2z0xk3xtd3s/wish/234300717 788511 https://padlet.com/788511/2z0xk3xtd3s/wish/234301570 Argued that intelligence was composed of seven primary abilities: reasoning, verbal comprehension, numerical ability, perceptual speed, associative memory, spatial visualization, and word fluency

Strength: 

Weakness: these intelligences may not operate separately from one another ]]> 2018-02-22 16:03:56 UTC https://padlet.com/788511/2z0xk3xtd3s/wish/234301570
