It does not necessarily matter that you did not stand out as a talent in math or physics. Maybe you stayed in class dreaming about a distant world and sketching it in your notebook. Or just helping family members work. These traits also suggest intelligence, too.
Psychologists and other experts have many ways to determine human intelligence. You have probably heard of IQ (IQ) tests. But intelligence is not about IQ, and here's why:
1. Intelligence tests measure specific skills such as reasoning, memory, and problem solving. They can not capture a broader picture of your abilities in general.
2. Intelligence tests do not assess important traits such as creativity or emotional abilities.
3. People with different backgrounds have different levels of familiarity with test concepts and structure, so low scores may not always represent current intellectual abilities.
4. Studies suggest that people with autism often have higher intelligence than standardized intelligence tests show.
5. Many experts believe that a single test can not give a clear picture of intelligence, in part because there are many types of intelligence to consider.
A popular theory, presented by psychologist and professor Howard Gardner, suggests that there are nine different types of intelligence. Here's a look at 11 signs of different types of intelligence.
1. Be empathetic: Empathy, commonly described as the ability to experience things from someone else's point of view, is a key component of emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence refers to your ability to understand emotions and to express them in healthy and productive ways.
2. Evaluate loneliness: Intelligence also involves spending time alone, where you can reflect on problems, come up with new ideas, and reflect on past experiences.
3. Have a strong sense of self: Knowing what you need from yourself is only part of self-awareness.
4. Want to know more: Simple explanations may never satisfy you. You enjoy reading, art, and exploring other languages ??and cultures. Curiosity, in all its forms, seems closely related to intelligence.
5. Observe and remember: Work memory is your ability to store and work with specific information. In fact, the ability to observe and observe is related to different types of intelligence.
6. Keni memorje të mirë trupore: Inteligjenca mund të shfaqet edhe në një kontekst fizik. Ndoshta nuk mund të shpjegoni se si shkoni në një restorant specifik, por këmbët tuaja e dinë rrugën - edhe pse keni ecur vetëm në atë pjesë të qytetit një herë, disa vjet më parë.
7. Përballoni sfidat: Përshtatja është një përbërës kryesor i inteligjencës. Ajo përshkruan aftësinë tuaj për t'u përshtatur me situatat e reja ose ndryshimin e ngjarjeve.
8. Keni një aftësi për të ruajtur paqen: Aftësitë e forta ndërpersonale gjithashtu tregojnë inteligjencën.
9. Keni tendencë të shqetësoheni për gjërat: Shqetësimi, në terma themelorë, është i barabartë me përgatitjen e vetes për mundësinë e diçkaje të pakëndshme.
10. Manage emotions: Everyone experiences painful or unwanted emotions from time to time. This is a normal part of life. The way you handle those emotions can mean a lot to your emotional intelligence.
