Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The concepts of fluid intelligence (gf) and crystallized intelligence (gc) were introduced in 1963 by the psychologist Raymond Cattell. According to Cattell’s psychometrically-based theory, general intelligence (g) is subdivided into gf and gc.

Detailed explanation-2: -General intelligence encapsulates correlations among various cognitive tasks which can be categorized into two subdivisions (Cattell, 1971). These are fluid intelligence and crystallized intelligence.

Detailed explanation-3: -Fluid intelligence is your ability to process new information, learn, and solve problems. Crystallized intelligence is your stored knowledge, accumulated over the years. The two types work together and are equally important. They both increase through childhood.

Detailed explanation-4: -Definition. Crystallized intelligence (abbreviated Gc) is reflected in a person’s general knowledge, vocabulary, and reasoning based on acquired information. It is contrasted with fluid intelligence (see Fluid Intelligence) as one of the two factors of general intelligence first proposed by Cattell (1971).
