智商（IQ）、成绩和成就测试分数被广泛用作认知的衡量标准，但它们之间的相关性远非完美。这篇论文使用了各种数据集来证明性格和智商可以预测成就测试的成绩和分数。相对而言，性格在预测成绩方面比成就测试的分数更重要。相对而言，智商在预测成就测试成绩方面更为重要。在许多重要的生活结果上，性格通常比智商更具预测性。成绩和成就测试都比智商更能预测重要的生活结果。原因是两者都能捕捉到比智商更具有独立预测能力的人格特征。
Intelligence quotient (IQ), grades, and scores on achievement tests are widely used as measures of cognition, but the correlations among them are far from perfect. This paper uses a variety of datasets to show that personality and IQ predict grades and scores on achievement tests. Personality is relatively more important in predicting grades than scores on achievement tests. IQ is relatively more important in predicting scores on achievement tests. Personality is generally more predictive than IQ on a variety of important life outcomes. Both grades and achievement tests are substantially better predictors of important life outcomes than IQ. The reason is that both capture personality traits that have independent predictive power beyond that of IQ.
