    Hi all!

    I am about to embark on my research and study of intelligence testing.

    Seeing as intelligence testing has been influenced in the past by both advances in neurology and also interaction between brain and behaviour studies, it would be interesting to try and predict or discuss the next step in how psychologists are going to go about testing intelligence in humans.

    I would be interested in hearing your opinions and suggestions!

    I really don't feel that there is any problems with how the dominant general model of intelligence is measured. It is a construct that is measured with incredible precision as is. This discussion would probably vary depending on the model of intelligence in question. I do think that the structure of intelligence and also the genetics of intelligence are pretty fruitful topics for research. Looking at new ability measures of emotional intelligence is another area that warrants research.
