What kinds of abilities does intelligence include? What position does it have in mental health?

Intelligence mainly includes observation, memory, thinking, imagination and attention, among which thinking is the core of intelligence and the main symbol to measure a person's intelligence, which is mainly manifested in the breadth, depth, speed and flexibility, pertinence and order of thinking. When parents help their children learn, they should not only let them master the basic knowledge, but also pay attention to developing their intelligence in the process of mastering knowledge: to make them become wise men with extraordinary wisdom. The law of brain development is "use in and waste out". The brain has great potential. As long as we follow its development law and develop its potential, children's intelligence can be fully exerted. The whole function of human brain is the basis of intelligence expression, and intelligence is closely related to the integration of whole brain bone marrow. Intelligence is the coordinated reflection of the pertinence, extensiveness, depth and flexibility of brain nerve activity in any nerve activity and its conscious psychological activities that cause and interact with each other. Educating and cultivating children with the greatest plasticity in childhood is an important condition for developing intelligence.
