[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Child may struggle due to his assumptions that other people’s minds work like his. [/b]Speaking with a friend about this we realized that we both have really strong memories and we can see pictures in our minds from our textbooks etc. [b]We both assumed everyone else can do this too[/b] which makes for some interesting moments in our study groups in high school, college etc. (me: “Just close your eyes. Now what do you see?” Them: um, nothing.)[/quote] If the high IQ is paired with impairment in theory of mind, then yes. This isn't inevitable, and for some people with high IQ it is perfectly obvious to them that others' minds aren't working the same way theirs do. This whole discussion is bizarre...yet another DCUM circle jerk about measurement of intelligence. [/quote]
