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 …

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 …

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

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

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 …

Some people are cleverer than others. This everyday observation is the subject of an
academic field that is often portrayed as confused and controversial, when in fact, the field of …

General intelligence (g) and virtually all other behavioral traits are heritable. Associations
between g and specific single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in several candidate genes …

The concept and measurement of intelligence present a curious paradox. On the one hand,
scientists, fluent in the complex statistics of intelligence-testing theories, devote their lives to …

Not since the landmark publication of Handbook of Human Intelligence in 1982 has the field
of intelligence been more alive than it is today. Spurred by the new developments in this …

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