<P> Sternberg associated the componential subtheory with analytical giftedness . This is one of three types of giftedness that Sternberg recognizes . Analytical giftedness is influential in being able to take apart problems and being able to see solutions not often seen . Unfortunately, individuals with only this type are not as adept at creating unique ideas of their own . This form of giftedness is the type that is tested most often (Sternberg, 1997). </P> <P> Sternberg's 2nd stage of his theory is his experiential subtheory . This stage deals mainly with how well a task is performed with regard to how familiar it is . Sternberg splits the role of experience into two parts: novelty and automation . </P> <P> A novel situation is one that you have never experienced before . People that are adept at managing a novel situation can take the task and find new ways of solving it that the majority of people would not notice (Sternberg, 1997). </P> <P> A process that has been automated has been performed multiple times and can now be done with little or no extra thought . Once a process is automatized, it can be run in parallel with the same or other processes . The problem with novelty and automation is that being skilled in one component does not ensure that you are skilled in the other (Sternberg, 1997). </P>
