Detailed explanation-1: -Having high practical intelligence means that a person is able to solve problems quickly and confidently address new challenges.

Detailed explanation-2: -Practical intelligence is defined as the ability that individuals use to find a more optimal fit between themselves and the demands of the environment through adapting, shaping, or selecting a new environment in the pursuit of personally valued goals (Sternberg, 1985, 1997).

Detailed explanation-3: -Practical intelligence, as proposed by Sternberg, is sometimes compared to “street smarts.” Being practical means you find solutions that work in your everyday life by applying knowledge based on your experiences.

Detailed explanation-4: -Psychologist Robert J.

He calls this “the Triarchic theory of intelligence.”
