RE: IQ and EQ Cannot Measure Intelligence

in #intelligence8 years ago (edited)

This has been long falsified
citation please?

since it doesn't correspond to many other species such as elephants (massive brains) .
EQ is the brain size to the body weight RATIO, as is stated in the links.
The EQ of an elephant is Elephant 1.13–2.36 the elephant is indeed very intelligent but it's ratio of body size to brain size is less than man. Human EQ is 7.4–7.8 Corvids (crow family) is 2.49 strangely enough. Bird brains are organized differently.

and insects
Insects don't have brains as such.

Pretending that it can be measured is massively false
that's obviously incorrect. IQ tests are fairly accurate predictors of job performance AND college performance. The test is measuring something that's directly correlated. That something is measureable.

Q tests are fairly accurate predictors of job performance AND college performance.

you answer your own questions. task specific, cultural paradigms. not intelligence

Insects don't have brains as such.

another human-centric bias. Just because your brain function doesn't resemble the physiology it doesn't mean it doesn't apply.

btw, you don't need a paper to tell you "water is wet". The amount of neurons has nothing to do with the size.

Actually it does.
Crows belong to the family Corvidae, which also includes ravens, magpies, jackdaws, and jays. All corvids display a range of intelligent behaviors that not only surpass that of other birds, but most mammals as well. To the uninitiated, the idea that a bird species could be up there with dolphins and chimps might be pretty surprising, but the evidence is insurmountable.

This supports my argument. not yours.
