Answer

D

Explanation

JP Guilford (1961) developed a model of intelligence in which he explained that every intellectual activity can be described in terms of three different basic dimensions, viz. operations the act of thinking, contents the terms in which we think like words, symbols etc and products the ideas we develop. He has proposed his tri-dimensional theory of intelligence represented by cubical model. This model is provided with 120 primary abilities and is a combination of 4 contents, 5 operations and 6 products (`4xx5 xx6` =120).
