Intelligence ( (L5) )

Dr. Tabassum Alvi's document discusses intelligence, including different types like IQ and EQ. IQ (Intelligence Quotient) measures general intelligence through standardized tests of mental age divided by chronological age. Gardner's theory proposes multiple intelligences. EQ (Emotional Intelligence) involves self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills. Factors like heredity, environment, age, culture, health, sex, and socioeconomic status can influence intelligence. While IQ is inborn, EQ can be learned and improved. IQ ensures school success while EQ ensures life success by recognizing and managing emotions.

“Anyone can become angry … that is easy.
…But to be angry with the right person, to
the right degree, at the right time, for the
right purpose, and in the right way … that is
not easy.”
Aristotle
“The capacity for recognising our own
feelings and those of others, for motivating
ourselves, for managing emotions well in
ourselves and in our relationships.”

(Goleman, 1995)

understand what they're telling you, and realize
how your emotions affect people around you.

• It also involves your perception of others: when


you understand how they feel, this allows you to
manage relationships more effectively.
