The correct answer is
C-E-A-B-D
Intelligence Theories Chronological Order
To determine the correct chronological order, we need to establish the approximate dates for the proposition of each theory:
- C. G-Factor Theory: Proposed by Charles Spearman around 1904.
- E. Multifactor Theory: Proposed by Edward Thorndike around 1913.
- A. Hierarchical Theory: Cyril Burt proposed an early hierarchical model around the 1940s.
- B. Piaget's Theory: Jean Piaget's influential work on cognitive development stages began publishing significantly in the 1950s.
- D. Bruner's Theory: Jerome Bruner's theories on cognitive development and modes of representation emerged prominently in the 1960s.
Ordered Sequence
Arranging these theories chronologically based on their proposal dates yields the following sequence:
- C (G-Factor Theory - 1904)
- E (Multifactor Theory - 1913)
- A (Hierarchical Theory - 1940s)
- B (Piaget's Theory - 1950s)
- D (Bruner's Theory - 1960s)
The correct sequence is C-E-A-B-D.
