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 …

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

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 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 …

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

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

Individual differences in human intelligence, as assessed using cognitive test scores, have a
well-replicated, hierarchical phenotypic covariance structure. They are substantially stable …

Education, socioeconomic status, and intelligence are commonly used as predictors of
health outcomes, social environment, and mortality. Education and socioeconomic status …

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 …
