Week 4 paper

 

This weeks assignment has been an interesting one for me from a standpoint of being extremely sick. I am usually able to use a huge portion of my mind and thinking capacity to answer questions. However for the last 8 days, I have been so sick I have hardly been able to get my basic homework done. My mind has been so stripped of what I can normally do, I feel like I am firing on one cylinder from the v12 I am used to.

It is interesting to try and think when the vast amounts of my mind are off line. Usually I can write between 120 – 200 words a minute. Right now I am averaging about 40.

It is interesting to example IQ when I have had a drastic and extreme drop in my neuropathway access. IQ tests began in the last 1700s early 1800s as an attempt to convert agricultural cultures to factory based. The layers and complex information regarding why is a subject all on its own, however those subjects smash into Wilhelm Wundts trip under clandestine conditions to Tiffin Ohio, followed by William James several years later. Wundt was in Tiffin for extreme reasons, which directly contributed to the industrial revolution, to the development of Psychoanalysis, Behaviorism, the entire field of Psychology, etc. Think of it as gears in a clock, each gear is specific and important. But each gear itself is part of a total whole. Which is in a large part where the IQ test came from. The IQ test was originally developed to build factories. The gradation of Intelligence quotation.

But that is only partially about IQ concepts; more the field of Psychology and the population control devices the Prussians were demanding with genocidal level “give us it or we kill you”.

Robert Sternberg’s Triarchic theory of intelligence. According to Sternberg, it took more than 100 years to break the Factory floor set intelligence factor model. The old IQ test and results assumbed that if you have a 70 90 iq the only thing you would be good for is pushing a broom and or working on a farm or similar simple labor position. 90-100 factory floor worker. 110-120 you were good at bengi a line supervisor, or an ara supervistor, 120-130 management have an education doctor lawyer accountant etc.

However this hierarchal society structure says just as much bad about the society which imposed this incorrect standard as it does about the standard itself. It is institutionalized forced labor.

Robert Sternberg’s Triarchic theory of intelligence developed a three pronged approach to intelligence. Componential, experiential, and practical. Each one could be worked on and improved over time by different sitmulations.
