Traditional GIQ consists oofverbal, mathematical & problem solving applications. We can map it in humans on the so-called “Bell Curve”, which ranges from profound retardation to ultra GIQ. The highest on record is 228.

IQ is clearly a complex construct. I think H. Gardner is correct in IDing at least 8 IQ dimensions.

GIQ correlates about 0.6 with post-secondary performance; and shows a correlation of 0.4 with professional success. So, clearly, there are othr important mediating factors.

In re: to retardation, 80% that we find in the world, is due to psychosocial deprivation! Dendrites do not proliferate without plenty of stimulation.

All in all, I find it to be an important aspect of the human experience.

Journal writing, meditation, case study analysis and investigative learning enhance reflective intelligence by many folds. People with leadership qualities have been found to be doing these activities more often than others who remain followers. [...]
