Answer: Option C
<u>Explanation:
</u>
Louis Leo Thurstone believed that word fluency takes part in a different dimension's intelligence from that reasoning. He was able to come up with a structure of intelligence using Primary Mental Abilities as the core ingredient along with considering that it was an independent group of intelligence that different people own in different degrees. He was able to identify some independent group of intelligence, such as fluency in word, memory and the inductive reasoning.
