Very familiar with EQ. If you read the wiki article you cited, most of it is references to people disputing the relevance of EQ. eg 0 Currently the best predictor for intelligence across all animals is [forebrain]neuron count.[[5]](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encephalization_quotient#cite_note-houzel2017-5 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encephalization_quotient#cit...) 1 In a meta-analysis, Deaner et al. (2007) tested ABS, cortex size, cortex-to-brain ratio, EQ, and corrected relative brain size (cRBS) against global cognitive capacities. They have found that, after normalization, only ABS and neocortex size showed significant correlation to cognitive abilities. 2 The notion that encephalization quotient corresponds to intelligence has been disputed by Roth and Dicke (2012). They consider the absolute [number of cortical neurons] and [neural connections]as better correlates of cognitive ability.[[16]](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encephalization_quotient#cite_note-16 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encephalization_quotient#cit...)
