📖 VIDEO CONTENT OVERVIEW (RETENTION BOOSTER)

When we talk about intelligence, most people immediately think of IQ scores or exam marks.
However, J. P. Guilford challenged this narrow view and proposed that intelligence is a complex system of interacting abilities, not a single number.
Drawing from his work in psychometrics, factor analysis, and his experience with the U.S. Army Air Corps, Guilford realized that different people excel in different cognitive domains—spatial thinking, memory, decision-making, creativity, and social understanding.
His famous 1950 APA Presidential Address ignited modern creativity research and laid the foundation for the Structure of Intellect Theory, a multidimensional model of human intelligence.
This is Part One of the series, focusing on background, thinking journey, and intellectual framework—explained in a new and relatable way.
