Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Background: The present article deals with the results of research on the psychological diagnosis of social intelligence and its connection with general intelligence. Methods: The analysis of the relationship between the Social Intelligence Scale of the University of Tromso, Norway (TSIS) (Social awareness scale, SA) with the R. Amthauer Intelligence Test was carried out on a sample of 407 students of comprehensive schools aged from 12 to 18. Social Intelligence Scales have relationships with R. Amthauer Intelligence Test. Factor analysis has shown that the TSIS (Social Awareness, SA) is present in the structure of general intelligence. The other two TSIS Social information processing (SP) and Social Skills (SS) scales have minor correlation relationships with R. Amthauer Intelligence Test. The result shows the structural relationships between general intelligence with social intelligence. The aim of the research is to identify and analyze the regular relationship between general intelligence (IQ) with social intelligence. Results: The correlational and factor analysis results established certain relationships in the factor-analytical structure of general intelligence with social intelligence. The correlation relationship of the social awareness subscale (SA) from the Social Intelligence Scale (TSIS) with individual subtests of the R. Amthauer Intelligence Structure Test was revealed. Conclusion: Our study established a statistically significant relationship at the significance level of 0.05 between IQ and social intelligence, particularly social consciousness (understanding), which allowed us to connect social intelligence and general (psychometric) intelligence.
