Intelligence is difficult to measure and all intelligence tests may be biased and somewhat meaningless. For instance, there are different types of intelligence consisting of Linguistic; Logical/mathematical; body/kinesthetic; spatial; interpersonal; intrapersonal are the various types of abilities that education should be geared to fostering.

Intelligence can be linked to survival skills, amount of genes an organism has, life expectancy, music skills, motor skills, artistic skills, communication skills, analytical skills, logic skills and reasoning skills.

Intelligence can be difficult to measure in so-called right-brain skills (analytical and symbolic skills), but easier to measure in so-called left-brain skills (more quantitative and perhaps logical).

Some think animals that live long lives (and we still do not know who long some animals live) are very intelligent and have adapted to their environment very well.

Persons who have lived long lives, but are called primitive or non-industrialized, may be very good at adapting to their environment and intelligent.

Plants may be some of the oldest species on the planet, and they same may be said of some turtles, so maybe they are more intelligent than humans.

Artists some times have more visual or intuitive skills and are considered right-brain dominant and they may be more intelligent then some scientists who may be more left-brain dominant, but both may be very similar in their skills and tend to be right-brain dominant and tend to associate together.

So-called businessmen, accountants (also called bean counters), and lawyers may be left-brain dominant and may be less intelligent than artists and scientists on certain test, So-called businessmen, accountants (also called bean counters), and lawyers may be left-brain dominant and may be less intelligent than artists and scientists on certain test, but may have a broader range of skills.

Intelligence may consist of a narrow range of skills or a broad range of skills, each of which may be near equally useful.

Intelligence may be equally valuable as either a specialty (narrow range of skills) or a so-called general education (broad range of skills).

The book Superlearning suggests that intelligence can be learned.

Some think the ability to simplify information, such as in an equation, is a sign of intelligence.

Some think that neural density or brain activity is a sign of intelligence.

Some think that neural density or brain activity is often best achieved by a rich and perhaps beautiful natural environment, and that often exists in cultures that most respect the natural environment, or what is best for nature.

Health, survival skills, ability to adapt, and lifespan may be better indicators of intelligence than shallow intelligence Quotient tests. Daniel Goleman claims IQ contribute only about 20 percent of the factors that determine success.

The book Superlearning has some great comments about ideal learning environments. Certain genetic illnesses may correspond to lower intelligence by 10 IQ points; Certain supplements may increase intelligence; Certain drugs may cause birth defects, and perhaps while on these drugs intelligence is lowered, such as alcohol, and perhaps all anti-seizure drugs.
