2. Psychology
Intelligence is the capacity of a person to
adjust to new situations through the use
of what has been previously learned.
Objective of Intelligence
The fundamental objective of
intelligence is to ensure balanced and
timely decision-making.
Principles of Intelligence
1.General Principles are fundamental guides to action, broad
statements of truth from which others are derived.
2. Criteria
a. Universality of application it should apply to as many
phases and aspects of intelligence as possible. It should guide
not only the production of intelligence but also the related
activities essential to the process as well as the organization and
thought and actions of the individual composing it.
b. It must be broad truly a general rule. It should form
the basis for a formulation of results and subsidiary guides. It
must be important, indeed essential, to intelligence - If a guide is
truly important and essential, then its violations should bring its
own immediate penalties.
They must not be mutually exclusive; instead each should
complement the other.
3. Doctrine (rules)
Exists the essential of unity between
knowledge and action; that knowledge enhances the
effectiveness of action and minimizes the chances
of error.
The Principles
4. Objectivity
In Intelligence, only the well guided succeed.
It is a basic intelligence concept that there is unity
between knowledge and action. It follows therefore
that intelligence should interact and condition the
decision. Intelligence must be adapted to the needs
of the decision; it is both giver and taker. Action or
decision is planned by knowledge and guided by it
at every step.
5. Interdependence
Intelligence is artificially subdivided into components
elements to insure complete coverage, eliminate duplication
and to reduce the overall task or manageable sizes.
Nevertheless, each subdivision remains as essential part of
unity; contributes proportionately to the end result;
possesses a precise interrelationship; and interacts with
each other so as to achieve a balanced and harmonious
6. Continuity
intelligence must be continuous. It is necessary that
coverage be continuous so that the shape of what happens
today could be studied in the light of what was happened
before, which in turn would enable us to predict the shape of
things to come.
Communication
Intelligence adequate to their needs must be
communicated to all the decision makers in manner
that they will understand and form that will permit its
most effective use.
Usefulness
Intelligence is useless if it remains in the
minds, or in the files of its collectors or its
producers. The story must be told and it must be
told well. The story must be convincing and to be
convincing it must not only be plausible or factual
but its significance must be shown.
Selection
In intelligence should be essential and pertinent to the
purpose at hand. Intelligence involves the planning through a
maze of information, the considering and innumerable
number of means or of picking the most promising of a
multitude of leads. The requirement of decision-making
covers very nearly the entire span of human knowledge.
Unless there is selection of only the most essential and the
pertinent, intelligence will go off in all directions in one
monumental waste of effort.
Timeliness
Intelligence must be communicated to the
decision maker at the appropriate time to permit is
most effective use. This is one of the most important
and most obvious, for intelligence that is too soon or
too late are equally useless. Timeliness is one
principle that complements all the others.
