In Arthur Jensen's hierarchical model, how does Level I differ from Level II of intelligence?

ABoth Level I and Level II refer only to rote memorisation of facts
BLevel I is higher-order cognitive competence, Level II is associative learning
CLevel I is associative learning, Level II is higher-order cognitive competence
DBoth Level I and Level II refer only to abstract reasoning skills
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. Level I is associative learning, Level II is higher-order cognitive competence
1. Arthur Jensen proposed a hierarchical model with abilities at two levels. 2. Level I is associative learning, where output is similar to the input, like rote learning. 3. Level II is cognitive competence, involving higher-order skills. 4. Level II transforms the input to produce an effective output. 5. Distractor 2 swaps the two levels. 6. Hence Level I is associative, Level II is higher-order cognitive competence. _Source: NCERT Class 12 Psychology Ch 1 "Variations in Psychological Attributes", p. 6, Theories of Intelligence_
