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

This article provides an overview of the biometric and molecular genetic studies of human
psychometric intelligence. In the biometric research, special attention is given to the …

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

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 …

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 …

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 …

Nature as well as nurture contributes to the development of individual differences in
intelligence. Genetic research on intelligence has moved beyond this rudimentary nature …

Neuroscience is contributing to an understanding of the biological bases of human
intelligence differences. This work is principally being conducted along two empirical fronts …

More is known about the genetics of intelligence than about any other trait, behavioral or
biological, which is selectively reviewed in this article. Two of the most interesting genetic …

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 …
