CattellHornCarroll Model History

CHC is theory of cognitive abilities is an unification of two similar theories about human cognitive abilities. The first of these two theories is Gf-Gc theory (Raymond Cattell, 1941; Horn 1965), and the second is John Carroll's (1993) Three-Stratum theory.

CHC Model
CHC theory involved the use of the mathematical technique known as factor analysis In comparison to other well-known theories of intelligence and cognitive abilities, CHC theory is the scientifically proven and well structured theory

Raymond Cattell
Cattell proposed that there were two overall abilities people have: Crystallized intelligence and fluid intelligence

Crystallized intelligence reflected

abilities that were relatively static (such as learned information)

Fluid intelligence was more related to

On the spot problem solving

Crystallized intelligence
-- acquired knowledge and experience -- age

Fluid intelligence
-- problem-solving, learning and pattern recognition

John Horn
Added Seven to Sixteen broad abilities

John Carroll
General ( Stratum III ) : general intelligence factor g Broad ( Stratum II ) : fluid and crystalized intelligence Narrow ( Stratum I ) : 73 narrow abilities, each related to a specific Stratum II domain.

Domain-Independent General Capacities

Fluid Reasoning:

- Fluid Reasoning
- Memory

To solve novel on the spot problems Not relying on previously learned habits

Memory:
Short Term Memory Long Term Memory and Retrieval

- General Speed

General Speed:
Reaction-Decision Speed Psychomotor Speed

Acquired-Knowledge System
Crystallized:

Crystallized
Comprehension Domain-Specific Reading & Writing Quantitative

Includes the breadth and depth of a person's acquired knowledge

Comprehension:
Depth and breadth of knowledge and skills that are valued by ones culture.

Domain Specific:
typically acquired via ones career, hobby other passionate interest (e.g., religion, sports)

Reading & Writing:

related to written language

Quantitative:
related to mathematics

CHC Tests
CHC Model tests (aptitude tests, general intelligence assessments) are one of the most powerful predictors of cognitive abilities These tests measure verbal, numerical and abstract reasoning and the resulting score reflects the person's ability to acquire, retain, organise and apply information

CHC Tests
People who score well on cognitive ability tests are more likely to: Develop a greater knowledge of the task, more quickly Make effective decisions Successfully reason , solve problems Respond appropriately to new or complex situations
