Wechsler's theory of intelligence

Wechsler's theory of intelligence focuses on a broader understanding of cognitive abilities, emphasizing that intelligence is multifaceted rather than a single ability. He proposed different types of intelligence, such as verbal comprehension, perceptual reasoning, working memory, and processing speed. This approach suggests that individuals may excel in different areas, highlighting the importance of practical skills and problem-solving in addition to traditional academic knowledge. Wechsler's intelligence tests assess these diverse abilities, providing a more comprehensive view of a person's overall cognitive functioning rather than relying solely on IQ scores.
