　What is IQ ＆ EQ　什么是智商和情商
     While the IQ can measure concepts like logical reasoning, word knowledge and math skills, many feel it is not adequate in measuring creative abilities or emotional abilities. In fact, some with high IQ do not seem to be particularly adept at maintaining relationships or seem socially awkward at best.
     For example IQ measurements on most children with autism are typically very high, yet it is well known that these children are burdened by their inability to communicate in other forums. Thus other tests may be administered to evaluate such a child's ability according to other standardized testing methods.
     Intelligence quotient testing is now not administered very frequently, since some feel it merely measures how well people do on IQ tests. Emotional quotient testing is becoming more popular in the workplace since some employers feel it will help predict how well potential employees might do in stressful circumstances.
     Some educators and psychologists feel that neither EQ nor IQ testing presents the full picture of a human being. There are other types of intelligence, according to critics, that may be just as important. As well, standardized testing may oversimplify emotional intelligence and response.
     Short EQ tests may also fail because people realize they are being tested on their emotional capabilities. While an IQ test may have one definitive answer for each question, people may not truthfully answer questions about their behaviors. So results may be skewed by what people believe they would like employers to know, rather than true responses to questions.
     Some psychologists further make distinction between emotional quotient and emotional intelligence. Some feel that we are all born with innate emotional intelligence (EI) that may be perverted by growing up in difficult circumstances, such as an abusive home. However, stronger innate EI in people who have strayed from high emotional quotient might predict how well people from difficult backgrounds might be able to improve EQ.
     Most agree that while emotional and intelligence quotient tests may be able to make some statements about an individual, they are too general to really sum up a person's potential. This does not, however, discourage employers from using emotional quotient tests to make decisions regarding potential new hires to their companies.
     情商是Emotional Quotient的英文縮寫。漢語(yǔ)意思是："情緒智慧"或"情緒智商"，簡(jiǎn)稱情商。它代表的是一個(gè)人的情緒智力（Emotional Intelligence）的能力。簡(jiǎn)單來(lái)說(shuō)，EQ是一個(gè)人自我情緒管理（self-emotion management）以及管理他人情緒的能力指數(shù)(capability index)。通常，在大型企業(yè)公司的面試上，都會(huì)測(cè)試情商。智商就是智力商數(shù)(intelligence quotation)。智力通常叫智慧，也叫智能。是人們認(rèn)識(shí)客觀事物并運(yùn)用知識(shí)解決實(shí)際問(wèn)題的能力。智力包括多個(gè)方面，如觀察力(observation ability)、記憶力(memory)、想象力(imagination)、分析判斷能力(analysis and judgment capability)、思維能力(thinking ability)、應(yīng)變能力(strain ability)等。智力的高低通常用智力商數(shù)(intelligence quotation)來(lái)表示，用以標(biāo)示智力發(fā)展水平。
