Bell Curve, which successfully used IQ and long-term survey data, aims to show that IQ is a predictor of adult success which is far superior to child's socio-economic status. However, the authors use very limited social factors as the basis of the calculation. Sociologists demonstrate that social factors are a better predictor of future success, not IQ, by considering more social factors (make the research more realistic understanding) I was able to do.
The basis of every evaluation tool is the effectiveness associated with the standard, the ability to predict the outcome. Testing the relationship between IQ and professional success with 11 meta-analyzes showed that IQ predictions were superior to any other variables in most occupations, especially in senior occupations. The prediction is also excellent as well. Intelligence is particularly important in an open and technologically advanced society. There is not a completely open society, but it is different from the strict caste society of the past. In past strict and aristocratic caste societies, genes have little to do with determining social class. But they play an increasingly important role in a more modern and equitable society. In order to decide that SES is roughly proportional to environmental equilibrium, the genes and the individual differences that they bring are important.
Understand intelligence based on how intelligence serves for success in the owner's environment. IQ is important for career success and emotional intelligence is also important to the success of society. Both forms of intelligence need to understand the environmental rules and use their resources to satisfy them, just as it makes the jigsaw puzzle partly complete. Like autisticians do not work well in society, some people show excellent skills and abilities in certain fields such as high-speed computing and photography memories, but usually I think that they are "not wise" and IQ I will score the test. not high
The era when IQ was considered the only major determinant of success is forever gone. More and more research shows that our EQ plays a big role, not IQ, in achieving our goals. Our IQ is only 25% of the result of our lives and the remaining 75% is considered to be related to emotional ability.
