Virtual intelligence
(As we move through the network)

Several years ago, specifically in 1996, it appeared a real hit editorial “Emotional Intelligence” by Daniel Goleman. This book became quickly into a bestseller worldwide.

For those who have not read it basically tell us that it is not just enough to have a high intelligence average (IQ) to have success in life. According to Goleman, there are many factors involved in the fate of people and the emotional intelligence, or how to interact with the world, is one of the most determining factors when we manage our existence in favor or against oneself. Therefore, according to the writer, many people still have a lower IQ are much happier and succeed in a meaningful life, because they have high emotional intelligence and backwards.

Ten years later Goleman also wrote another book, it was not so successful, “Social Intelligence”, which was saying something similar but in the context of society. He says that we are programmed to connect with others and that our relations have a direct impact on our lives, directly influencing our body cells for better and for worse ... it can create bad influences or real diseases.
And then: what is the relationship all this with new technologies?

Well, from the point of view of new technologies, there is a certain gap in the study of relationships and especially compared to Goleman studies, the type of "intelligence" that we use in the new communication. Ultimately how we move through this network called the Internet, the network of networks.

Certainly we are seeing a new way of relating in recent years, very different, and it is properly to wonder about some issues. In this investigation I found something on "Psychology in the network" but nothing about the type of intelligence that is used on the Internet. So, this issue is quite interesting.
How could we call it? Well as it is clear, as its main feature is the lack of physical contact and is managed through a

    In this article written by Daniel M. Wegner, the author speaks of a new age problem in which people are now losing connection with each other due to the fact that the internet is easier to look something up on the internet than finding a friend that knows the information that they are looking for. Throughout the article, it gave examples of different studies that compared the people that had knowledge of a topic to those that had to look up the topic. The results were that the people that looked it up did worse than the people that didn’t use the internet, but they reported feeling smarter despite not knowing that they did worse. The author states that with the rapid growth in technology that it has begun to” blur the lines between mind and…

Mary Rowlandsons Captivity Narrative contradicts William Bradford’s in his Of Plymouth Plantation. This is shown by Bradford only thinks they are barbarians and Rowlandson has grey area in her time spend with the Indians.…

    The quote “The bravest of individuals is the one who obeys his conscience” was once said by a man named J.F. Clark. Many situations will be faced by many people, but the bravest ones are the ones who listen to their conscience. It takes real courage to stand up for what’s right and no to support what is wrong. The novel To Kill a Mockingbird, written by Harper Lee, is great example to help prove this point. J.F. Clark’s idea can help be proven true after one examines two things. After reading To Kill a Mockingbird there are many characters that can help support his idea. Atticus and “Boo” Radley are the two characters that best support the quote presented.…

    Joyce Carol Oates wrote, “reading is the sole means by which we slip, involuntarily, often helplessly, into another’s skin, another’s voice, another’s soul.” This quote more or less sums up the sole main purpose of why many people read fiction. The reasons why a reader likes or dislikes a work of fiction may seem to be random, or even shallow, such as its ability to grab attention or keep a reader hooked with on stereotypical drama. However, when a work is actually examined further, deeper levels of understanding can be discovered. There are always conscious decisions made by authors of fiction in order to captivate the reader, in connecting to help them to connect to the characters, being intrigued to create intrigue by the narration itself, and being romanced to romance them by the style of writing. By reacting to these conscious artistic decisions, a reader can decide whether or not they are emotionally pierced or struck by a specific work. One way this attachment is achieved by the author is by creating an archetype, or something that many people can recognize or relate to. This can be in the ‘type’ of fiction the novel or story falls into, or the characteristics one can notice in a stereotypical character type. (Question: Why would an author want to mask real meaning in something that repels reader?) When this recognized archetype is looked at initially, or on a surface level, it can cause a bad negative reaction in the reader. ; Archetypes are very likely to result in a dismissal of the story because the reader feels that they have already ‘been there, read that.’ They are repelled by the work due to its boring nature and repetition. This makes it all the more powerful when an author can use the illusion of archetypes to mask the deeper meaning of a story or depth of a character. When they are looked at in further detail, and examined very more closely, certain illusions of an archetype created intentionally by the author can be very useful. By breaking…

    Emotional Intelligence

    In the book Emotional Intelligence by Daniel Goleman, the central thesis that he tries to point out is that emotional intelligence may be more important than I.Q. in determining a person's well being and success in life. At first I didn't know what Goleman was talking about when he said emotional intelligence, but after reading the book I have to say that I agree completely with Goleman. One reason for my acceptance of Goleman's theory is that academic intelligence has little to do with emotional life. To me, emotions can be just as intelligent as your I.Q. In this essay I hope to provide sufficient evidence to show why I agree with Goleman's thesis on emotional intelligence.…
