Intelligence as seen by other cultures

[edit]

This article needs an addition that describes how other cultures conceive of intelligence

Genes for intelligence

For reference, this is the source:
  • Deary, Ian (2021). "Genetic variation, brain, and intelligence differences". Molecular Psychiatry. Here, we summarise and critique the last 10 years or so of molecular genetic (DNA-based) research on intelligence, including the discovery of genetic loci associated with intelligence
The added content was overly-broad and misrepresented the source, and it wasn't clear why this would belong in the lead of the article. Additionally, saying "already" is editorializing language which misrepresents the study to imply a degree of importance and obviousness which is not supported by the source, and again, wouldn't necessarily belong in the lead even if it were.

Most psychologists...

[edit]

"Most psychologists believe that intelligence can be divided into various domains or competencies" in the opening section. As far as I'm aware most psychologists believe intelligence is mostly explained by a single factor. I will remove this pending appropriate sourcing, which I am quite sure does not exist.
