Cognitive Correlates of General Intelligence: Toward a Process Theory of "g."

Larson, Gerald E.; Saccuzzo, Dennis P.

Intelligence, v13 n1 p5-31 Jan-Mar 1989

Experiments with 35 male/39 female college students and 220 male Navy recruits examined the nature of a general ability factor of intelligence--Spearman's "g." Patterns related to task complexity and reaction time variability were studied. "g" appears related to the ability to reconfigure working memory contents flexibly and consistently. (SLD)
