Which of these theories follows the information-processing approach?
APASS model (Das)
BTwo-factor theory
CPrimary abilities
DGuilford's 180 cells
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. PASS model (Das)
1. Recall the fact: The PASS model represents the information-processing approach.
2. The option "PASS model (Das)" matches it.
3. Why the others fail: Spearman, Thurstone and Guilford all describe the structure of abilities (psychometric).
4. Check the stem wording against the fact: only one option satisfies both.
