Implicit theories of intelligence refer to the beliefs individuals hold about the nature of intelligence. Individuals tend to see intelligence as something that is a fixed and immutable entity (entity theory or entity belief) or as a malleable dimension that can be changed or improved upon (incremental theory or incremental belief).

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
