intelligence

Going Mental is Big Think's blog about neurology, psychology and the mysterious mechanisms of the human brain.

 there isn't even a consensus as to what constitutes intelligence in the first place. It is widely accepted that there are different types of intelligence—analytic, linguistic, emotional, to name a few—but psychologists and neuroscientists disagree over whether these intelligences are linked or whether they exist independently from one another. 

Big Think also interviewed Dr. Daniel Goleman, author of the bestselling Emotional Intelligence," and spoke with him about his theory of emotional intelligence, which comprises four major poles:
  • self-awareness, 
  • self-management, 
  • social awareness, and 
  • relationship management.
