In this episode, Dr. Nader sits down with Dr. Robert Sternberg for a discussion on intelligence, love, cognitive styles, and creativity. Dr. Sternberg presents the triarchic theory of intelligence and the triangular theory of love, more commonly known as the Sternberg’s Theory of Love. In the context of interpersonal relationships, there are three components of love: intimacy, passion and commitment. The triarchic theory of intelligence focuses on a more "successful intelligence" composed of three elements: analytical intelligence, creative intelligence, and practical intelligence.

Dr. Robert Sternberg is a psychology professor at Cornell University and was ranked as the 60th most cited psychologist of the 20th century. He’s authored and co-authored over 1,500 publications including articles, book chapters, and books. He holds 13 honorary doctorates from 11 countries and has won more than two dozen awards for his work.
