Barnes, Michael L.; Sternberg, Robert J.
Intelligence, v13 n3 p263-87 Jul-Sep 1989
The relationship between non-verbal decoding ability and social intelligence, defined as the ability to decode social information accurately, was studied using 40 adults. Results are discussed in the framework of R. J. Sternberg's triarchic theory of human intelligence. Decoding skills appeared to be an important part of social intelligence. (SLD)
