I don't think there's a strong correlation with people of "extremely
high intelligence" but definitely there's a correlation from around 75
IQ up to high intelligence (to the around the upper 5% of the
distribution), after which the correlation would attenuate as it tends
to do with other variables. Among the highly intelligent keep in mind,
too, that a "strong sense of humanity" gets a lot more philosophically
convoluted and there's a lot of disagreement as to what constitutes
"good" especially when you get into the power realms where what
applies to those below doesn't always apply to those at the top (of
xyz organizational hierarchy).
