The triple symmetry model conveys heuristic value in guiding the expansion of intelligence constructs as well as practical value for the reconceptualization of education as the enhancement of human effectiveness. The model depicts intelligence, education, and human effectiveness as having definable logical and empirical relationships with the others in a conceptual triangle. Each construct is constituted by or reliant upon competencies that are constituent to intelligence and that make effectiveness possible. The model affords theoretical consolidation in that identified structured relationships place each construct in a semantic relationship with the others. It can further prompt reconsideration of what experiences are properly called educational.
