Abstract: This study investigated Taiwanese Chinese conceptions of intelligence. Two studies were conducted. In the first study, people were asked to characterize an intelligent person. In the second study, people were asked to rate the attributes compiled from the first study according to the frequency or importance of the attribute. Five factors emerged from the ratings of frequency: general cognitive ability, interpersonal intelligence, intrapersonal intelligence, intellectual self-promotion, and intellectual self-effacement. Four factors emerged from the ratings of importance: interpersonal and intrapersonal intelligence, intellectual enjoyment, intellectual self-assertion, and general cognitive ability.
