  • A.Factorial elements
  • B.Comparative processing skills
  • C.Information-processing abilities
  • D.Ability clustering forms of thinking

Answer: C

For Gardner, an intelligence is an information-processing ability appropriate to specified kinds of content.

Howard Gardner describes each intelligence as a biopsychological potential to process particular kinds of information, linguistic, logical-mathematical, spatial, musical, bodily-kinesthetic, interpersonal, intrapersonal and naturalist, in ways valued in a culture. Each intelligence is defined by the content it processes.

Factorial elements belong to factor-analytic theories such as Spearman's or Thurstone's, and the other phrases do not describe Gardner's definition.
