The most generic definition of intelligence presents it as the faculty of knowing and understanding, it faculty that contrasts with instinct insofar as that is an innate response to the excitations of the medium. Thus, we can assume intelligence as the ability to understand the relationships that exist between the elements of a given situation and not known in advance.
In this sense, intelligence has a double function. On the one hand, the task of the intelligence is to understand and apprehend what is important of what is not, the true of the false, the precise of imprecise, and on the other hand, the intelligence of allowing to elaborate promptly what is he has apprehended.
While there are many forms of intelligence, there are two major types: practice and abstract. The practical intelligence is that capable of solving specific problems. On the other hand, abstract or conceptual intelligence is characterized by involving verbal and symbolic material in the resolution of problems.
In the child the practical intelligence (or also "concrete operative", according to the language of the psychologist Jean Piaget) forms a very defined stage of his mental evolution from 5 or 6 years. In the adult, practical intelligence manifests as the ability to manipulate objects
In its simplest forms, behavior first appears as a response to a stimulus from the environment. However, human behavior starts before the stimulus appears and is triggered, at the same time, by a plurality of responses, that is, by reasons.
In this sense, some psychologists have made a division of those triggers of behavior, that is, of the reasons and have classified them into primary and secondary.
Among the primary reasons are the basic needs of the human being, such as food, drink, sexuality, health, clothing and housing.
The secondary reasons, on the other hand, are those that are linked, fundamentally, to security and success, in general, as well as to the demands that characterize the culture of a given society.
