but how is intelligence measured, and how do you stack up?

但是智力是如何被測量，你要如何加強？

One of the most common tests involves identifying emotions in people's faces.

最常見的測驗之一包含辨識別人的臉部表情

For example, what is this expression?

例如，這是表達什麼？

Do you think it's embarrassment, sadness, amusement, or shame?

你認為是尷尬、悲傷、快樂、還是羞愧？

If you guessed embarrassment you are correct!

如果你猜尷尬，就答對了！

This test is used to help measure your ability to empathize and communicate effectively with others.

這個測驗是用來評量你對他人進行有效感知和溝通的能力

So let's look at a more ubiquitous test for intelligence - the IQ Test, also known

所以讓我們來看一種更普遍存在的測驗 - IQ 測驗，通稱

as the Intelligence Quotient.

「智商」

It is a standardized test that assesses both verbal and non-verbal abilities.

這是一個評估語言和非語言能力的標準測驗

Study this geometrical pattern sequence right now.

請仔細看這個幾何圖形序列

Now of these 6 tiles below, which tile would you choose to complete the pattern?

下面的這 6 塊磁磚，你會選擇哪塊磁磚來完成這個圖案？

I'll give you a couple of seconds, but pause the video if you need more time.

我會給你幾秒鐘，但如果你需要更多時間就請按暫停

If you picked 5, you're correct!

如過你選 5 就答對了！

Basically, each row has a diamond, a square and a triangle

基本上，每列都有一個菱形，一個正方形和一個三角形

as well as a solid bar, a lined bar and an empty bar.

以及一個實心條，一個線形條和一個空心條

Since this bottom row has a triangle and diamond, we know the next one's a square, and it also has a

由於最底行有一個三角形和一個菱形，我們知道下一個應該是正方形，而且

lined and an empty bar, so we know we need a solid bar.

它有一個線形條和一個空心條，所以我們知道我們需要一個實心條

The direction of the bar is also the same in each line.

在每一列，條形的方向也是相同的

Though IQ tests are common, other ways to test if you are smart do exist.

儘管智商測驗很常見，但還有其他測驗你是否聰明的方法

There is now a prominent theory of "Multiple Intelligences", such as musical-rhythmic intelligence.

現在有一個重要的「多元智能」理論，比如音樂韻律智能

Let's test your pitch!

讓我們來測試一下你的音感

Which of these songs sounds "off" to you?

下面哪一首曲子你聽起來「不對勁」？

Song one?

第一首？

Song two?

第二首？

or song three?

第三首？

If you guessed clip 3, you have a good sense of pitch.

如果你選的是第三首，那麼你有很好的音感。

Though not fully understood, you could be tone deaf and still have perfect hearing but

雖然我們無法完全理解，為何你可能是個音痴卻擁有完全正常的聽力

how your brain interprets the sounds may make it difficult to interpret pitch.

但你的大腦對聲音的辨別能力，可能造成你辨識音調的困難

Now, what about your visual intelligence?

那麼，你的視覺智能呢？

I'm going to show you a picture of these six shapes for 10 seconds.

我將向你展示下面這六種圖形 10 秒鐘

Try to remember them as best as you can!

試著盡可能地記住它們！

Ok now which of these three did you already see?

好的，這三個中的哪一個，你剛才看過？

If you guessed "C" you are correct!

如果你選「C」就答對了！

This task needed to use Ziggerins - novel objects that don't exist in real life in

這個任務需使用到 Ziggerins－ 一種現實生活中不存在奇特的具象

order to accurately test you.

用來更準確地測試你的視覺智能

If you are good at the Ziggerin task you may have higher visual intelligence which is not

如果你在 Ziggerin 測驗表現優異，表示你可能擁有和 IQ 不一樣的

the same as IQ.

更高的視覺智能

But it could mean that you will excel at tasks like matching fingerprints, interpreting medical

這可能意味著你在指紋辨識，解讀醫療用 X 光照片

X-rays, or keeping track of aircraft on radar displays.

或在雷達螢幕上追踪飛機等工作上會有優異的表現

Not all intelligences can be measured, for example bodily-kinesthetic intelligence, the

並不是所有的智能都可以測量，例如肢體動覺智能

capacity to handle objects skillfully is difficult to tease apart.

也就是對於肢體如何巧妙處理物體的能力，是很難將其分離出來評量的

A study of 4 year olds at a ballet class couldn't assess rhythm effectively because some had

在芭蕾舞課堂對 4 歲兒童做測驗，並不能有效地評估他們的韻律感

already taken classes before or dance at home creating predisposed knowledge.

因為有些人之前已經上過課，或是曾在家中跳舞而已經培養出感知的能力

As well many tests require a combination of many types of intelligences, so it's hard

相同的，許多測驗是包含了多種智力的組合，所以很難僅憑一個測驗

to study just one.

就判斷出一個人的能力

What this research underscores is that there are so many ways to be smart, and it is not

這項研究強調的是，測驗聰明有很多種方式

just about taking an IQ test.

不僅僅只有 IQ 測驗而已
