Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The type of intelligence described in the scenario is contextual intelligence, which refers to the ability to understand and navigate the social and cultural context in which one finds oneself. Knowing the appropriate social norms for interacting with adults versus peers is an example of contextual intelligence. This is distinct from componential intelligence (analytical reasoning and problem-solving skills) and experiential intelligence (creativity and insight). Perceptual intelligence, which involves sensitivity to sensory information, is not relevant to the scenario.
