General intelligence is an important human quantitative trait that accounts for much of the
variation in diverse cognitive abilities. Individual differences in intelligence are strongly …

Intelligence, or general cognitive function, is phenotypically and genetically correlated with
many traits, including a wide range of physical, and mental health variables. Education is …

Intelligence is associated with important economic and health-related life outcomes 1.
Despite intelligence having substantial heritability 2 (0.54) and a confirmed polygenic …

Intelligence—the ability to learn, reason and solve problems—is at the forefront of
behavioural genetic research. Intelligence is highly heritable and predicts important …

Pedigree-based analyses of intelligence have reported that genetic differences account for
50–80% of the phenotypic variation. For personality traits these effects are smaller, with 34 …

Intelligence is a core construct in differential psychology and behavioural genetics, and
should be so in cognitive neuroscience. It is one of the best predictors of important life …

Intelligence is highly heritable and a major determinant of human health and well-being.
Recent genome-wide meta-analyses have identified 24 genomic loci linked to variation in …

It has been known since 1904 that, in humans, diverse cognitive traits are positively
intercorrelated. This forms the basis for the general factor of intelligence (g). Here, we …

Variance in IQ is associated with a wide range of health outcomes, and 1% of the population
are affected by intellectual disability. Despite a century of research, the fundamental neural …

Individual differences in intelligence (cognitive abilities) are a prominent aspect of human
psychology, and play a substantial role in influencing important life outcomes. Their …
