Intelligence- Samantha Norberg

1. General

   • Seen as a single factor contributing to performing intellectual tasks. Intelligence is measured through IQ tests and is made up of fluid and crystallized intelligence. High IQ scores correspomd with high general intelligence. -Grison S et al (2016).

2. Fluid and crystallized

   • Fluid: Fluid intelligence is about information processing. It is about thinking quickly and flexibly. Works in comparison with working memory. Crystallized: Knowledge gained through experience. This knowledge is used to help solve problems. Useful in things like crossword puzzles. -Grison. S et al (2016).

3. Triarchic

   • A theory that is composed of three different types of intelligences: Analytical is solving problems and puzzles. Those who play chess tend to be higher in this intelligence. Those with creative intelligence are able to think in new and interesting ways. The last intelligence of the theory is practical: the ability to perform everyday tasks. -Grison. S et al (2016).

4. Emoti0nal

   • Emotional intelligence is the ability to recognize your own emotions as well as recognizing others. Those with higher emotional intelligence tend to be better at recognizing their anger and learning to cool it down before making any drastic measures. -Grison. S et al (2016).
   • Emotional intelligence consists of four different abilities: managing your emotions, using emotions to guide your thoughts and actions, recognizing emotion in others, and understanding emotional language.
     • Regulating one's mood, resisting impulses and temptations, and being able to control one's behaviors are all key concepts in emotional intelligence. -Grison. S et al (2016)
       • On a 10 point scale I would rate myself about a 7 with emotional intelligence. I consider myself very good at recognizing my own emotions and tend to use my emotions through my decision making. For the most part I am good at resisting temptations and controlling my behaviors. I lack in the sense of knowing how to deal with other's emotions. I am good at recognizing a specific emotion someone is expressing but I am not always good at communicating it with that person or helping that person cope.

5. Multiple

   • Multiple intelligences consist of several intellectual acts independent of one another. Some may excel in certain intelligences and lack in others and vive versa. -Grison S. et al (2016).
   • Musical
     • Refers to the skill in performance, composition, and appreciation of musical patterns. Those who are "music smart" have a natural ability to recognize pitch, tone, and rhythm. -Marenus M. (2020).
       • On a 10 point scale I would consider myself a 5. I do love music and I love singing along to songs but I would not consider myself someone who could naturally compose or understand the different tones and rhythms in music. I think with practice and learning I would be able to gain this skill but definitely not something that I naturally have.
   • Bodily- Kinesthetic
     • In other words "body-smart". Those with this intelligence tend to have amazing mind-body connection. They use either part's or their entire body to solve problems or create products. Tend to be very hands on and athletic. -Marenus M. (2020).
       • On a 10 point scale I would rate myself a 9. I am a very hands on person and have a very good mind-body connection. I have always loved sports and doing fun and athletic activities. I enjoy hands on jobs and activities and keeping myself active.
   • Linguistic
     • Those with this intelligence are considered "word smart". It deals with learning and understanding languages, being able to deal with it's sensitivity, and using language to accomplish certain goals. -Marenus M. (2020).
       • On a 10 point scale I would have to rate myself a 6. I consider myself a very smart person but I do not think I am the a very "word smart" person. I have always lacked in reading comprehension, and I have never been good at learning any other languages.
   • Mathematical/ logical
     • Those who are mathematically/logically smart are capable of analyzing problems logically. They are able to do scientific calculations and proofs and tend to be good at solving very abstract problems. -Marenus M.(2020).
       • On a 10 point scale I would rate myself a 6. I consider myself pretty good at math however I require a ton of practice on certain math concepts. People that are higher in this intelligence are normally just naturally good at these concepts. Where as I myself am only good after I have had a ton of practice.
   • Spatial
     • "Picture smart" Those who have the ability to recognize and manipulate patterns in wide and confined spaces. Good at using images in their mind. Ex: artists , sculptors, interior designers, etc. -Marenus M. (2020).
       • On a ten point scale I would rate myself about an 8. There are certain aspects were I lack in this. For example I am not always the best at picturing interior design stuff, but I am pretty good at painting and other art pieces. Some skills needed are the ability to construct and fix things which is something I am very good at -Anders (n.d).
   • Interpersonal
     • People who are "people smart". Are able to understand the intentions of and motivations of others. Those who are high in this intelligence are able to consistently work effectively with others. -Marenus M. (2020).
       • On a 10 point scale I consider myself an 8. I am pretty good with people and I am great with working with others. I am not always the best at helping others through their emotions but in different aspects I work great with others.
   • Intrapersonal
     • Those who are "self smart" are capable of recognizing and understanding their own desires, moods, intentions, and motivations. They understand their life goals and know how to achieve them. -Marenus M. (2020).
