The real problem you have is not the theories, but actually defining what intelligence is. Few have agreed what it means.

yes, the problem is theories. I can not find them anywhere and I know they are around.
Dawn -- what does your text say about early and contemporary theories of intelligence?

How early is "early?" Ancient Greek times? Medieval times? Early 1900s?

Are contemporary theories of intelligence those that have become publicized in the last 10 years? 20 years?
I searched Google under the key words "intelligence theory" to get these possible sources:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_multiple_intelligences
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triarchic_theory_of_intelligence
http://www.indiana.edu/~intell/
http://www.personalityresearch.org/intelligence.html

There are many other sources out there.

In the future, you can find the information you desire more quickly, if you use appropriate key words to do your own search. Also see http://hanlib.sou.edu/searchtools/.

I hope this helps a little more. Thanks for asking.
