Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales primarily measure cognitive abilities that are closely aligned with logical-mathematical intelligence, such as problem-solving and reasoning skills. Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences includes a broader range of abilities, but traditional IQ tests like the Stanford-Binet tend to focus on logical, verbal, and some aspects of spatial intelligence, rather than bodily-kinesthetic, naturalistic, or interpersonal intelligences.
