Intelligence can be defined as a general mental ability for reasoning, problem solving, and
learning. Because of its general nature, intelligence integrates cognitive functions such as …

Evidence from neuroimaging studies suggests that intelligence differences may be
supported by a parieto-frontal network. Research shows that this network is also relevant for …

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 …

Now that the human genome has been sequenced there exists the possibility of identifying
specific genes that affect human cognition. In this article, recent studies that have found …

Individuals vary in their cognitive performance. While this variation forms the foundation of
the study of human psychometrics, its broader importance is only recently being recognized …

Empirical data suggest that there is at most a very small sex difference in general mental
ability, but men clearly perform better on visuospatial tasks while women clearly perform …

Research into the biological bases of human intelligence differences is surveyed. Work on
brain event-related potentials (ERPs) suggests that people with high IQ test scores:(1) show …

Adolescence represents an important period during which considerable changes in the
brain take place, including increases in integrity of white matter bundles, and increasing …

Two competing philosophical paradigms characterize approaches to the evolution of the
human mind. One postulates continuity between animal and human behavioral capacities …

We hypothesized that individual differences in intelligence (Spearman's g) are supported by
multiple brain regions, and in particular that fluid (gF) and crystallized (gC) components of …
