Sternberg's practical component defines intelligence differently depending on the sociocultural context in which it is displayed.

a. true

b. false

True, Strenberg purposed a Triarchic (three part) theory of intelligence that said people may display more or less analytical intelligence, creative intelligence, practical intelligence. so practical intelligence is that which does not take from books or formal learning. It represent type of street smart, common sense that is learned from life experience. this intelligence may include certain abilties that people use to do specific jobs and these abilties may not get from general intelligence.
