1. Intelligence
Intelligence, the ability to think, to learn from experience, to solve problems, and to adapt to new situations
Intelligence is important because it has an impact on many human behaviors.
Intelligence has been associated with successful educational, occupational, economic, and social outcomes.

2. General (g) Versus Specific (s) Intelligences
Psychologists believe that there is a construct that accounts for the overall differences in intelligence among people, known as general intelligence (g). vocabulary, memory for pictures, naming of familiar objects, repeating sentences, and following commands.
There is also evidence for specific intelligences (s), measures of specific skills in narrow domains, including creativity and practical intelligence.

3. Crystalized versus Fluid Intelligence
which refers to the capacity to learn new ways of solving problems and performing activities quickly and abstractly.
Crystallized intelligence, which refers to the accumulated knowledge of the world we have acquired throughout our lives

4. Triarchic Theory Robert Sternberg.
A triarchic (three-part) theory of intelligence that proposes that people may display more or less analytical intelligence, creative intelligence, and practical ntelligence.
Analytical intelligence the ability to answer problems with a single right answer
Creative intelligence the ability to adapt to new situations and create new ideas
Practical intelligence e.g., the ability to write good memos or to effectively delegate responsibility.

5. Triarchic Theory
As Sternberg proposed, research has found that creativity is not highly correlated with analytical intelligence and exceptionally creative scientists, artists, mathematicians, and engineers do not score higher on intelligence than do their less creative peers

6. Furthermore, the brain areas that are associated with convergent thinking,( thinking that is directed toward finding the correct answer to a given problem), are different from those associated with divergent thinking, (the ability to generate many different ideas for or solutions to a single problem)

7. Triarchic Theory
Important Components for Creativity
1. Creative people have carefully studied and know a lot about a topic Imaginative Thinking
Creative people view problems in new and different ways ( Risk Taking )
Creative people take on projects for interest not money ( Working in Creative )

8. Triarchic Theory
4. The most creative people are supported, aided, and challenged by Environments other people working on similar projects

9. Triarchic Theory
practical intelligence refers primarily to intelligence that cannot be gained from books or formal learning.
Practical intelligence represents a type of “street smarts” or “common sense” that is learned from life experiences
Practical intelligence may include, certain abilities that help people perform well at specific jobs, and these abilities may not always be highly correlated with general intelligence

10. Theory of Multiple Intelligenc psychologist Howard Gardnere
Gardner argued that it would be evolutionarily functional for different people to have different talents and skills, and proposed that there are eight intelligences that can be differentiated from each other.

11. Howard Gardner’s Eight Specific Intelligences
Linguistic; The ability to speak and write well
Logical- mathematical ;The ability to use logic and mathematical skills to solve problems
Spatial; The ability to think and reason about objects in three dimensions
Musical; The ability to perform and enjoy music

12. Kinesthetic (body); The ability to move the body in sports, dance, or other physical activities
Interpersonal; The ability to understand and interact effectively with others
Intrapersonal; The ability to have insight into the self
Naturalistic ;The ability to recognize, identify, and understand animals, plants, and other living things

13. Intelligence Quotient (IQ).
Intelligence Quotient (IQ), a measure of intelligence that is adjusted for age. A simple way to calculate IQ is by using the following formula:
IQ = mental age ÷ chronological age × 100. (mental age : estimated by special tests )
(chronological age : the real age )

14. IQ Range Classification
Above 145 Genius or near genius
Very superior
Superior
Normal
Dullness
Below Borderline deficiency

15. Wechsler Adult intelligence Scale (WAIS)
The Wechsler Adult lntelligence Scale (WAIS) is the most widely used intelligence test for adults (The current version of the WAIS, the WAIS-IV, was standardized on
*2,200 people
**ranging from 16 to 90 years of age.

16. (WAIS) ***It consists of 15 different tasks.
****designed to assess intelligence, including working memory, arithmetic ability, and general knowledge about the world

17. Biological factors related to IQ
Brain volume.
speed of neural transmission.
working memory capacity .

18. Is Intelligence Nature or Nurture?
Between 40% and 80% of the variability in IQ is due to genetics, meaning that overall genetics plays a bigger role than does environment in creating IQ differences among individuals.
Intelligence is improved by education and may be hindered by environmental factors such as poverty

19. Emotional intelligence
Emotional intelligence refers to the ability to identify, assess, manage, and control one’s emotions.
People who are better able to regulate their behaviors and emotions are also more successful in their personal and social encounters.

20. IMPORTANCE OF INTELLIGANCE
1. Scores on intelligence tests predict academic and military performance, as well as success in a wide variety of jobs 2. people who are more intelligent are better able to predict and avoid accidents and to understand and follow instructions from doctors or on drug labels.

21. 3 .The correlation between IQ and job performance is higher in more mentally demanding occupations, such as physician or lawyer, than in less mentally demanding occupations, like clerk or newspaper delivery person 4.Our vast intelligence also allows us to have language
