I will have marginally less faith that they can if OP is an INFP.
imagine a road system that is self regulating to a degree based on specific speed ranges and limits. The end goal of the system is "of course" to avoid accidents & get people to their destination as reliably and efficiently as possible while taking into account budgeting & other physical constraints. Now imagine you have similar starting parameters but everyone can now drive 'twice as fast'. the optimum road system wouldn't be the same as the one with the original speed ranges.
elementary.
Its okey to be retarded. You dont have to make up narratives to justify it.Why shouldn't they be able to have high IQs? It's not like they have a learning disability or something.
Also, what is considered "IQ"?
Recognition of random patterns (like the Mensa test) the ESPs seem to score the highest, if I'm not mistaken then my ESFP mother got like 140 IQ or something according to that test and could have entered Mensa if she wanted to. She's not the brightest at other areas however which would have to do with her not being inquisitive nor very interested in expanding her knowledge. Unlike me who usually score between 95 - 110 and I'm extremely inquisitive and willing to expand my knowledge.
2 forms of IQ.
Well, you'd know.Its okey to be retarded. You dont have to make up narratives to justify it.
I'm not even sure how this topic came about considering that stereotypically speaking INFPs (along with the INTPs of course) are like the ultimate brooding intellectual.
Thanks for clearing that up, everything you said applies.
One group of questions I've hit a wall with in IQ type of testing are the spatial ones. To be able to predict the shape of an object by only seeing it from one angle. I think if there's any accounting for INFPs having high IQs, it'd be here. I think both INTP and INFP have, for lack of a better way of putting it, "holographic" thinking, perceiving issues and objects from many sides. They strive to create a complete picture. Maybe strive is the wrong word. Maybe it comes natural to them. That's probably a strength and a weakness too. It bogs them down sometimes.
That's my 2c though. It's just one of my weaknesses, and a strength I've somewhat observed from those two (I need to be more involved and hands on to see things the way they do).
Not sure why there'd be any connection whatsoever between Ne and spatial intelligence....... much more often it's someone who is xSTP who is noted for incredible spatial skills, but I'm dubious of even that connection.
Yea, I was thinking that, but had really shady reasoning, and couldn't remember if that was an actual thing or if I just made it up in my head.
(there should be a smiley representing "shady reasoning"- I would use that all the time)
