Psychologists highlight rare 'integrative intelligence' beyond IQ

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

This capacity involves fluently thinking across unrelated domains and creating novel solutions at their intersections, exemplified by Charles Darwin's application of economic principles to biological evolution.
