Criteria for
Multifaceted Capability [futureskills]
[hyperhumanskills]
Highlights:
► We propose that human intelligence
is composed of multiple independent components
► Each behavioral component is
associated with a distinct functional brain network
► The higher-order
g
factor is an artifact of tasks recruiting multiple
networks
► The components of intelligence
dissociate when correlated with demographic variables
Summary
What makes one person more intellectually able than
another? Can the entire distribution of human
intelligence be accounted for by just one general
factor? Is intelligence supported by a single neural
system? Here, we provide a perspective on human
intelligence that takes into account how general
abilities or
factors
reflect the functional organization of the brain. By
comparing factor models of individual differences in
performance with factor models of brain functional
organization, we demonstrate that different components
of intelligence have their analogs in distinct brain
networks. Using simulations based on neuroimaging
data, we show that the higher-order factor
g
is accounted for by cognitive tasks corecruiting
multiple networks. Finally, we confirm
the independence of these components of intelligence
by dissociating them using questionnaire variables. We
propose that intelligence is an emergent property of
anatomically distinct cognitive systems, each of which
has its own capacity.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_(cognitive
Perspective in theory of cognition is the choice
of a context or a reference (or the result of this choice)
from which to sense, categorize, measure or codify
experience, cohesively forming a coherent belief,
typically for comparing with another. One may further
recognize a number of subtly distinctive meanings, close
to those of paradigm, point of view, reality
tunnel, umwelt, or
weltanschauung.
To choose a perspective is to choose a value system
and, unavoidably, an associated belief system. When we
look at a business perspective, we are looking at a
monetary base values system and beliefs. When we look at a
human perspective, it is a more social value system
and its associated beliefs.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subject%E2%80%93object_problem
So what is the
"subject-object relationship"? It is a fundamental
distinction in the way that we make sense of our
experience—a distinction that shapes our thinking, our
feeling, our social relating, and our ways of relating to
internal aspects of ourselves. The subject-object
relationship is not just an abstraction but a living thing
in nature. What I mean by "object" are those aspects of
our experience that are apparent to us and can be looked
at, related to, reflected upon, engaged, controlled, and
connected to something else. We can be objective
about these things, in that we don’t see them as "me." But
other aspects of our experience we are so identified with,
embedded in, fused with, that we just experience them as
ourselves. This is what we experience subjectively—the
"subject" half of the subject-object relationship. –Robert

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loevinger’s_stages_of_ego_development
Loevinger describes the ego as a process, not a thing.
The ego is viewed as the frame of reference (or lens) one
uses to construct and interpret’s one’s world. This
contains impulse control and character development, with
interpersonal relations, and with cognitive
preoccupations, including self-concept. Sullivan (1958)
‘had proposed four levels of "interpersonal maturity and
interpersonal integration" each of which represents a
progressively more complex way of perceiving oneself in
relation to the world. Every stage provides a frame of
reference to organize and give meaning to experience over
the individual’s life course. ‘Since each new ego stage or
frame of reference builds on the previous one and
integrates it, no one can skip a stage.
As the adult ego develops, Loevinger considered, a
sense of self-awareness emerges in which one becomes aware
of discrepancies between conventions and one’s own
behavior. For some, development reaches a plateau and does
not continue. Among others, greater ego integration and
differentiation continue.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language
Language is the human capacity for acquiring and
using complex systems of communication, and a language
is any example of such a system of complex communication.
The scientific study of language is called linguistics.
Human language is modality-independent. When used as a
general concept, "language" may refer to the cognitive
ability to learn and use systems of complex communication,
or to describe the set of rules that makes up these
systems, or the set of utterances that can be produced
from those rules.
Human language is unique among the lifeforms of Earth
because its complex structure affords a much wider range
of possible expressions and uses than any known system of
animal communication, all of which are generally closed
systems, with limited functions and mostly genetically
rather than socially transmitted. In contrast to non-human
communication forms, human language has the properties of
productivity, recursivity, and displacement. Human
language is also the only system to rely mostly on social
convention and learning.
Language is thought to have originated when early
hominins first started cooperating, gradually changing
their primate communication systems as they acquired the
ability to form a theory of other minds and shared
intentionality.
Humans acquire language through social interaction in
early childhood, and children generally speak fluently
when they are around three years old. The use of language
is deeply entrenched in human culture. Therefore, in
addition to its strictly communicative uses, language also
has many social and cultural uses, such as signifying
group identity, social stratification, as well as for
social grooming and entertainment.
All languages rely on the process of semiosis to relate
signs with particular meanings.
Oral and sign languages contain a phonological system
that governs how symbols are used to form sequences known
as words or morphemes, and a syntactic system that governs
how words and morphemes are combined to form phrases and
utterances.

Hierarchical task analysis (HTA) is an underused
approach in user experience, but one you can easily apply
when either modifying an existing design or creating a new
design.
http://www.uxmatters.com/mt/archives/2010/02/hierarchical-task-analysis.php
The model of hierarchical complexity is a
framework for scoring how complex a behavior is. It
quantifies the order of hierarchical complexity of a task
based on mathematical principles of how the information is
organized and of information science. This model has been
developed by Michael Commons and others since the 1980s.
Every task contains a multitude of subtasks (Overton,
1990). When the subtasks are carried out by the
participant in a required order, the task in question is
successfully completed. Therefore, the model asserts that
all tasks fit in some configured sequence of tasks, making
it possible to precisely determine the hierarchical order
of task complexity. Tasks vary in complexity in two ways:
either as horizontal (involving classical
information); or as vertical (involving
hierarchical information).
"…each adult individual possesses a certain number of
fixed universal personal-character attributes, defined by
the authors as "Personal Themes" which in combination
effect the individuals tendency to develop certain skills
more easily and excel in certain fields while failing in
others." –

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensemaking
Sensemaking is the ability or attempt to make sense
of an ambiguous situation. More exactly, sensemaking is
the process of creating situational awareness and
understanding in situations of high complexity or
uncertainty in order to make decisions. It is "a
motivated, continuous effort to understand connections
(which can be among people, places, and events) in order
to anticipate their trajectories and act effectively. –
Gary Klein
…embodied in materiality and soaring across
time-space …a body-mind-heart-spirit living in time-space,
moving from a past, in a present, to a future, anchored in
material conditions; yet at the same time with an assumed
capacity to sense-make abstractions, dreams, memories,
plans, ambitions, fantasies, stories pretences that can
both transcend time space and last beyond specific moments
of time space.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentiment_analysis
Sentiment analysis or opinion mining
refers to the application of natural language processing,
computational linguistics, and text analytics to identify
and extract subjective information in source materials.
Generally speaking, sentiment analysis aims to
determine the attitude of a speaker or a writer with
respect to some topic or the overall contextual polarity
of a document. The attitude may be his or her judgment or
evaluation (see appraisal theory), affective state (that
is to say, the emotional state of the author when
writing), or the intended emotional communication (that is
to say, the emotional effect the author wishes to have on
the reader).
