But what I would say the major contribution here is the ability model which positions EI as a standard intelligence that has its own unique set of mental abilities, four fundamental emotional related abilities that support problem solving.
但我想说的是，这里的主要贡献为能力模型，这种模型将情商定位为一种标准智力，有自己独特的心理能力，有四种基本的情感相关能力，能帮助解决问题。
What are those four?
这四种能力是什么?
Yeah, the four are perception and expression of emotion. Using EI to facilitate thinking. The understanding of emotions. And the management of emotions.

And so, Dan, you came across their article in your work as a science journalist at the New York Times.

Why did it stand out to you? Why did you want to write about it?

And when I found that rather obscure article that Mayer and Salovey had written, I thought, “This is the name of the book.”
