A More Accurate IQ Test Equivalent?

Note: this does not include anything EQ related, as that is a separate department (Social intelligence)

For a while there's been controversy on iq tests and their accuracy on determining intelligence. I myself have been struggling in research of what makes someone intelligent, for a few yrs since hs sophomore.

Intelligence is too vague so I turned to the building blocks instead: -Math ability (problem solving) -Critical Thinking -Reasoning -Learning -Memory -'Decision Making' (includes predicting and planning, however only applied w/ expertise in specific field. No translation into other areas) -'Stoicism' (tilt management level) -Basic Literary comprehension (not advantagous but necessary)

Decision-making is the umbrella for; planning, predicting, critical thinking, and reasoning. Even so, a test is still essential for decision making due to other factors not found elsewhere, which effect intelligence.

Reasoning is used to derive conclusions from assumptions while 'critical thinking' is used to validate them.

Learning is your ability to digest concepts, for example; leaving the car on park when pulled into a parking space.

Memorizing (memory) is about mentally digesting facts. This begins with short term memory, which is why chunking is sometimes commonly used in this occasion.

Tests

---

1. CCAT (Criteria Cognitive Aptitude Test) claims to measure: Ability to digest and apply new things (tailored to reasoning), Critical thinking, Problem solving, and Learning ability

2. Stoic Personality Test

3. Decision-making Test

4. Memory Test: Memory championship exercises (any of them. The reason being is the other tests are medical, which measure the best score as an average.)

Mind you I'm not a professional, nor do I pretend to be. I welcome any corrections and am open to criticism.
