Correct answer: C

Bloom's original taxonomy (1956) organizes educational objectives into three domains: the Cognitive Domain (intellectual skills — Knowledge, Comprehension/Understanding, Application, Analysis, Synthesis, Evaluation), the Affective Domain (Krathwohl's model of emotions, attitudes and values — Receiving, Responding, Valuing, Organizing, Characterizing), and the Psychomotor Domain (physical/motor skills).

Applying this to the item: Knowledge, Application, and Understanding are three of the six recognized levels of the Cognitive Domain, since each concerns processing or using intellectual information. Valuing, however, belongs to Krathwohl's Affective Domain — it concerns the worth or importance a learner attaches to an idea, behaviour, or belief, an emotional/attitudinal construct rather than an intellectual-skill one.

  • Knowledge — a Cognitive Domain level (recall of facts/terms); IS related to the cognitive domain.

  • Application — a Cognitive Domain level (using learned information in new situations); IS related to the cognitive domain.

  • Understanding (Comprehension) — a Cognitive Domain level (grasping meaning); IS related to the cognitive domain.

  • Valuing — an Affective Domain level (attaching worth/importance to values, attitudes, or beliefs); NOT related to the cognitive domain.

Since Valuing is the only option that falls under the Affective Domain rather than the Cognitive Domain, it is the correct answer to “which is not related with cognitive domain.”
