CHARACTERISTICS OF INTELLIGENCE

They cannot be hypnotized, including by self-hypnosis.

Also, examinations reveal them to have no psychoses or neuroses of any kind.

In addition, they are consistently kind and courteous. The word civil is derived from the Latin word civilis, meaning "kind or courteous." Anytime someone treats another human being in a manner that cannot accurately be described as kind or courteous, he cannot truthfully count himself among the civilized, much less the extremely intelligent.

Although they have special talents, those of extremely superior intelligence relate happily with people of all socioeconomic backgrounds and never consider themselves to be better overall individuals than others. There is no place in their mentality for prejudice.

Another common characteristic of those of the highest caliber of genius is their propensity to use common, easily understandable words and to avoid using unnecessarily big words, uncommon foreign phrases, needlessly technical terms, and the like, to attempt to impress others with their imagined mental prowess. The purpose of communicating is to be understood by the recipient. Anytime the recipient does not understand, communication has failed. Any attempt to communicate that is followed by an absence of understanding denotes a lack of intelligence [by the originator of the communication].

They invariably have a pronounced propensity to laugh. That is not to say that a person who laughs continually is extremely intelligent. He might be gleefully insane. And, it is not to say that an extremely intelligent person will laugh all the time. He will not. However, he is continuously able to do so. The more intelligent a person, the more humor he finds in everything.

Still another common characteristic is outstandingly sound physical and mental health. For instance, individuals of accurately measured, extremely superior intelligence are never subject to depression, even momentarily, under any circumstances. This is because one cannot think intelligently about something and simultaneously be unhappy about it. Unhappiness is never an intelligent state of existence.
