You are probably correct about political correctness, but it's not that easy.
As a start: There is proper definition of intelligence. A friend of mine currently is evaluating current standard tests for emotional intelligence as part of a midsize project (I think several Ph.D.s and various bachelor/master thesises) and from what he tells the state for the art is more guesswork then science.
- riffraff 12y agois the "more guesswork then science" related to emotional intelligence or intelligence tests in general? (I have no idea how either tests work, but I'd be inclined to believe it's harder to test for "tactfulness" than "ability to recognize patterns")
- 1ris 12y agoI only know about emotional intelligence, but I think other forms of intelligence are more reliable. But I want to stress that the idea that intelligence is multidimensional, and that there is such a thing as emotional intelligence is scientific consensus.
