    Description:

    Charles Spearman was not the first one who proposed the idea of intelligence as a single trait. But his idea is later used as reference for others to refine various theories of intelligence. His work in developing intelligence scales serves as a basis for subsequent works in intelligence testing and refinement of intelligence theories until current days.
