Why is everyone's intelligence different?

First, the differences in intelligence types. The so-called intelligence includes observation, memory and thinking ability. The type difference of intelligence refers to the type difference of people's observation, memory and thinking ability. In terms of memory, some people are good at using auditory memory, some people are good at using visual memory, and some people are good at using motor memory.

Second, the difference in the level of intellectual development. Some people are smart since childhood, while others are still stupid in their twenties. This is the difference in intelligence.

Third, the difference in intelligence is also manifested in that some people are precocious, while others are late. For example, Bai Juyi, a poet of the Tang Dynasty in China, began to learn poetry at the age of 6, and he could recognize the rhyme at the age of 9. At the age of 65,438+00, he wrote a philosophical poem, such as "Wildfire will not completely devour them, they will be tall again in the spring breeze". Stephenson, an Englishman who invented the train, was illiterate at the age of 17. He/Kloc-started studying at the age of 0/8, and made the world's first steam engine train at the age of 44.

Fourth, intelligence varies according to gender differences, but there is no difference between high and low. Some people think that boys are smarter than girls, which is actually a prejudice. A large number of psychologists have proved that boys' grades are often excellent and poor, while girls' grades are mostly medium. As far as the average score is concerned, there is no obvious difference between men and women. Women have a keen sense of smell and are superior to men in sound localization and color discrimination, while men are better at vision and orientation discrimination. Women's narratives often have strong emotional color, and they are good at thinking in images, literature, art, language, medicine, history and geography. Boys are broad-minded, flexible and creative, and good at abstract thinking, mathematics, physics, philosophy and astronomy.

The reasons for the differences in intelligence are very complicated. Congenital; Genetic quality, acquired environmental education conditions and personal subjective efforts are all important factors affecting intellectual development, and intellectual development is the result of the interaction of these factors.

It is more appropriate to regard intelligence as a kind of human potential, and intellectual development is the process in which this potential is brought into play. Intelligence is undoubtedly related to people's innate endowment, but everyone can play their potential to the highest level in a favorable environment. Therefore, from the perspective of innate endowment and environmental factors, intelligence is a different problem.

Intelligence differences can be divided into individual differences and group differences.

Individual differences in intelligence refer to the differences in intelligence between different individuals. We usually say that some people are smart and some people are slow; Some people are good at thinking in images, while others are good at thinking in abstractions, all of which belong to individual differences in intelligence. There are many forms of individual differences in intelligence, which can be manifested in the level, structure and maturity in the morning and evening.

Group differences in intelligence refer to the differences in intelligence between different groups, including gender differences, age differences, ethnic differences, social class differences and so on.
