[00:-1.00]It turns out that a scientist can see the future
[00:-2.00]by watching four-year-olds interact with a piece of candy.
[00:-3.00]The researcher invites the children, one by one,
[00:-4.00]into a plain room and begins the gentle torture.
[00:-5.00]You can have this piece of candy right now, he says.
[00:-6.00]But if you wait while I leave the room for a while,
[00:-7.00]you can have two pieces of candy when I get back. And then he leaves.
[00:-8.00]Some children grab for the treat the minute he\'s out the door.
[00:-9.00]Some last a few minutes before they give in. But others are determined to wait.
[00:10.00]They cover their eyes; they put their heads down; they sing to themselves;
[00:11.00]they try to play games or even fall asleep.
[00:12.00]When the researcher returns,
[00:13.00]he gives these children their hard-earned pieces of candy.
[00:14.00]And then, science waits for them to grow up.
[00:15.00]By the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened.
[00:16.00]A survey of the children\'s parents and teachers found
[00:17.00]that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control
[00:18.00]to hold out for the second piece of candy generally grew up to be better adjusted,
[00:19.00]more popular, adventurous, confident and dependable teenagers.
[00:20.00]The children who gave in to temptation early on were more likely to be lonely,
[00:21.00]easily frustrated and inflexible.
[00:22.00]They could not endure stress and shied away from challenges.
[00:23.00]When we think of brilliance we see Einstein,
[00:24.00]a thinking machine with skin and mismatched socks.
[00:25.00]High achievers, we imagine, were wired for greatness from birth.
[00:26.00]But then you have to wonder why, over time,
[00:27.00]natural talent seems to waken in some people and dim in others.
[00:28.00]This is where the candy comes in.
[00:29.00]It seems that the ability to delay reward is a master skill,
[00:30.00]a triumph of the logical brain over the irresponsible one.
[00:31.00]It is a sign, in short, of emotional intelligence.
[00:32.00]And it doesn\'t show up on an IQ test.
[00:33.00]For most of this century,
[00:34.00]scientists have worshipped the hardware of the brain
[00:35.00]and the software of the mind;
[00:36.00]the messy powers of the heart were left to the poets.
[00:37.00]But brain theory could simply not explain the questions we wonder about most:
[00:38.00]why some people just seem to have a gift for living well;
[00:39.00]why the smartest kid in the class will probably not end up the richest;
[00:40.00]why we like some people virtually on sight and distrust others;
[00:41.00]why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles
[00:42.00]that would sink a less resistant soul.
[00:43.00]What qualities of the mind or spirit, in short, determine who succeeds?
[00:44.00]The phrase "emotional intelligence"
[00:45.00]was coined by researchers five years ago to describe qualities like understanding
[00:46.00]one\'s own feelings, sympathy for the feelings of others
[00:47.00]and "the regulation of emotion in a way that enhances living".
[00:48.00]This notion is about to bound into the national conversation,
[00:49.00]conveniently shortened to EQ, thanks to a new book,
[00:50.00]Emotional Intelligence by Daniel Goleman.
[00:51.00]Goleman has brought together a decade\'s worth of research
[00:52.00]into how the mind processes feelings.
[00:53.00]His goal, he announces on the cover, is to redefine what it means to be smart.
[00:54.00]His theory: when it comes to predicting people\'s success,
[00:55.00]brain capacity as measured by IQ may actually matter less
[00:56.00]than the qualities of mind once thought of as "character".
[00:57.00]At first glance, there would seem to be little that\'s new here.
[00:58.00]There may be no less original idea than the notion that our hearts have authority over our heads.
[00:59.00]"I was so angry," we say, "I couldn\'t think straight."
[-1:00.00] Neither is it surprising that "people skills" are useful,
[-1:-1.00]which amounts to saying it\'s good to be nice.
[-1:-2.00]But if it were that simple,
[-1:-3.00]the book would not be quite so interesting or its implications so controversial.
[-1:-4.00]This is no abstract investigation.
[-1:-5.00]Goleman is looking for methods to restore
[-1:-6.00]"politeness to our streets and caring in our community life".
[-1:-7.00]He sees practical applications everywhere
[-1:-8.00]for how companies should decide whom to hire,
[-1:-9.00]how couples can increase the odds that their marriages will last,
[-1:10.00]how parents should raise their children and how schools should teach them.
[-1:11.00]When street gangs substitute for families
[-1:12.00]and schoolyard insults end in knife attacks,
[-1:13.00]when more than half of marriages end in divorce,
[-1:14.00]when the majority of the children murdered in this country
[-1:15.00]are killed by their parents,
[-1:16.00]many of whom say they were trying to discipline the child
[-1:17.00]for behavior like blocking the TV or crying too much,
[-1:18.00]it suggests a demand for basic emotional education.
[-1:19.00]And it is here the arguments will break out.
[-1:20.00]While many researchers in this relatively new field
[-1:21.00]are glad to see emotional issues finally taken seriously,
[-1:22.00]they fear that a notion as handy as EQ invites misuse.
[-1:23.00]"People have a variety of emotion,"
[-1:24.00]argues Harvard psychology professor Jerome Kagan.
[-1:25.00]"Some people handle anger well but can\'t handle fear.
[-1:26.00]Some people can\'t take joy. So each emotion has to be viewed differently.
[-1:27.00]" EQ is not the opposite of IQ.
[-1:28.00]Some people are blessed with a lot of both, but some with little of either.
[-1:29.00]What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together;
[-1:30.00]how one\'s ability to handle stress, for instance,
[-1:31.00]affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use.
[-1:32.00]Among the ingredients for success,
[-1:33.00]researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%;
[-1:34.00]the rest depends on everything from social class to luck.
