      From: m1@m1.com              Hello...                     "IQ tests are very good at measuring certain mental faculties, he says,       including logic, abstract reasoning, learning ability and working-memory       capacity - how much information you can hold in mind.              But the tests fall down when it comes to measuring those abilities       crucial to making good judgements in real-life situations. That's       because they are unable to assess things such as a person's ability to       critically weigh up information, or whether an individual can override       the intuitive cognitive biases that can lead us astray."              Read more here:              Why a high IQ doesn't mean you're smart              https://som.yale.edu/news/2009/11/why-high-iq-doesnt-mean-youre-smart                     Thank you,       Amine Moulay Ramdane.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
