Abstract

Social perception is important because it can affect the way intelligence is expressed during social interactions at school, home, and work. This study (N = 800) of adolescents and adults (age range = 16–91) examined which specific aspects of intelligence are associated with social perception (a composite of affect labelling, linking prosody to facial expressions, and interpreting the intent of a speaker). Women scored higher on social perception than men. Verbal comprehension (VC), perceptual reasoning (PR), working memory (WM), and processing speed (PS) accounted for 20% of the social perception variation, significantly (p < .05) more than did Full Scale IQ alone. VC had the largest effect on social perception, followed by PS and PR. WM had a non-significant effect on social perception. Implications for theory and research on intelligence and emotional intelligence are discussed along with implications for educational practice.

摘要

社交感知很重要，因为它会影响在学校，家庭和工作场所的社交互动中表达智力的方式。这项 针对青少年和成人（年龄范围为16-91岁）的研究（N = 800）检查了智力的哪些特定方面与社会知觉（情感标签，韵律与面部表情的联系以及对说话者意图的理解）相关联）。女性在社会认知上的得分高于男性。言语理解（VC），感知推理（PR），工作存储器（WM），和处理速度（PS）占社会感知变化的20％，显著（p <.05）比单独使用Full Scale IQ高得多。风险投资对社会认知的影响最大，其次是PS和PR。WM对社会认知没有显着影响。讨论了关于智力和情商的理论和研究的含义以及对教育实践的含义。
