Due to the last two decades of escalated technical development IQ researchers nowadays have to integrate some new pieces of empirical evidence coming from neuroscience. At the beginning of the 21st century the research of the neural background of intelligence arrived to a new chapter owing to the simple availability of functional imaging techniques, like fMRI and other neuro-physiological methods (e.g. EEG). To extend our results and to move on we need to clarify the relationship of data and organize our knowledge. In this review we summarize results on the neural background of intelligence that derive from clinical or normal, child or adult samples. The data suggest that intelligence is supported by a distributed integrated neural network.

In the contemporary world, economically and communicatively interconnected, more and more people live and work in different cultural environment. Expansion of transnational corporations, development of international joint ventures, strategic alliances, mergers and acquisitions, and international project teams cause growing demand for professionals – expatriates and inpatriates – travelling and working worldwide. Sometimes virtual solutions are employed in managing international teams. Business practice shows that international managers have to face much more difficult challenges than domestic ones. Globalization, with the growing mobility of highly educated, talented people, resulted in the development of global labour market, powered by professionals coming from diverse countries and cultures. As a result, the intercultural problems and conflicts become more and more burning, which creates the need for cultural intelligence – an important attribute of expatriates, together with general intelligence, emotional intelligence, and other managerial competencies which was the reason for researching cultural intelligence in international business. The aim of this paper is to identify the essence, the origin, the dimensionsn and the sub-dimensions of cultural intelligence, and to indicate its importance in different types of international teams. Studies and analysis of relevant sources were conducted to complete the task. To present the results of the findings the monographic method was utilized.

The contribution examines three types of intelligences (emotional, social and general) in relation to school performance of secondary school students (N=169). Empirical analysis indicated its zero to weak negative correlations (0.01≤R≤0.30) with factors, dimensions and global emotional intelligence measured by the Trait Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire-Adolescence Form (TEIQue–AF, Petrides, 2001) and weak negative correlations (0.18≤R≤0.29) with dimensions of social intelligence measured by The Tromso Social Intelligence Scale (TSIS, Silver, et al., 2001). On the other hand, the general intellect assessed by the non–verbal standardized Test of Intellectual Potential (TIP, Říčan, 1971) had a moderately negative relationship with school performance expressed by an average of marks in Mathematics (R=–0.39**).

How the mind is ageing?

The process of cognitive aging in global sense can be characterised by changes of the fluid and crystallised intelligence. In the context of this explanation the basic question is which cognitive functions and regulatory mechanisms play the basic role of the determinants for cognitive aging. Probable, mechanism of associative memory play a central role in top-down direction of cognitive processing. This type of memory connect the resources/networks of long term memory with the current processing in working memory. Another set of mechanisms concerns with bottom-up direction based on procedural memory, which is fundamental for the functioning of the mind as whole (Tulving theory,1985). Unfortunately, our knowledge about associative memory and its relations to working and procedural memory is incomplete and unclear. The importance of associative memory are partly, empirically supported by classic research on decreasing the cognitive components of intelligence aging, since the fluid and crystallized intelligence where discovered (Horn, Cattell, 1967). Changes of the mind functioning and its cognitive growth/aging can be characterised as a complex chain from primary, biologically determined mind, through Piagetian and Vygotsky’s type of mind to relatively balanced mind.

This study investigates emotional intelligence (EI) among gifted people (n = 43). There were used three tests to assess general level of emotional intelligence or EI components: Emotional Intelligence Test (TIE), Emotional Intelligence Scale-Faces (SIE-T) and Test of Emotion Understanding (TRE). In addition, self-esteem of subjects was analyzed in terms of EI. Results showed that: (1) Subjects have higher general EI (t = 5.33, p < 0.0001) and higher scores for EI components compared with the average scores in the polish population (from t = 3.27, p < 0.005 for managing emotions to t = 6,13, p < 0.0001 for understanding emotions), (2) Subjects underestimated their performance in self-reports (from t = -5.76, p < 0.0001 to t = -8.67, p < 0.0001). The implications of having high EI by gifted people and their underestimation of EI are discussed.

W badaniu analizowano samoocenę w zakresie inteligencji emocjonalnej (IE) oraz poziom inteligencji emocjonalnej wśród osób (n = 43) należących do Stowarzyszenia Mensa Polska. Zastosowano trzy testy służące do oceny ogólnego poziomu inteligencji emocjonalnej lub komponentów IE: Test Inteligencji Emocjonalnej (TIE), Skalę Inteligencji Emocjonalnej – Twarze (SIE-T) oraz Test Rozumienia Emocji (TRE). Ponadto, analizowano samoocenę osób badanych w zakresie IE. Otrzymane wyniki wykazały, że: 1) osoby o wysokim IQ uzyskały wyższe wyniki w zakresie ogólnego poziomu IE (t = 5,33, p < 0,0001) oraz wyższe wyniki w zakresie poszczególnych zdolności składających się na IE w porównaniu z przeciętnymi wynikami w populacji (od t = 3,27, p < 0,005 dla zarządzania emocjami do t = 6,13, p < 0,0001 dla rozumienia emocji); 2) osoby badane nie doszacowały swoich wyników w ankietach (od t = - 5,76, p < 0,0001 do t = -8,67, p < 0,0001).
