Idea of social intelligence putforth by ................... .
Answer: C
The idea of social intelligence was put forth by Thorndike.
E. L. Thorndike, in a 1920 article, divided intelligence into abstract, mechanical and social intelligence, defining the last as the ability to understand and manage people and to act wisely in human relations.
Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences (1983) includes a related interpersonal intelligence, but it came six decades later. Daniel Goleman popularised emotional intelligence in 1995 and later wrote on social intelligence, building on Thorndike's idea. W. H. Sheldon is known for his body-type (somatotype) theory of personality.
