Understanding Intelligence Quotient (IQ) & Fluid Reasoning
Intelligence Quotient (IQ) is a standardized quantitative measure of human cognitive capability relative to the statistical average of the global population. Modern cognitive psychology separates intelligence into two main pillars: crystallized intelligence (accumulated knowledge) and fluid intelligence (the capacity to solve new logic problems).
