>>13742998>anyone's ideaThis is you using a definition. You're not saying what it is, but you're implying there is one, and that everyone agrees with you on it.
I have friends that compose really interesting music, and I consider that a display of high intelligence. They might be shit at other things, and I might consider them idiots at those.
Similarly for some of my mathematically gifted friends. I know one that is a math postdoc, complete autistic robot style genius, but had massive trouble passing even basic experimental subjects in college.
IQ being a measure of "general intelligence" is a total meme. If we included things related to measurements in IQ tests his score would drop by 30 points.
I can absolutely see how IQ correlates to intelligence to some degree, or how it correlates to the presence of learning deficits, but I was wondering if there aren't more complete tests nowadays, that capture a bigger picture of general intelligence. That was the point of the thread.
