Stability of Intelligence from Preschool to Adolescence: The Influence of Social and Family Risk Factors.
Sameroff, Arnold J; And Others
Child Development, v64 n1 p80-97 Feb 1993
For 152 children, intelligence scores were assessed at 4 and 13 years of age, and the number of factors out of 10 social and family risk factors was counted. The presence of multiple risk factors in children's lives explained up to half the variance of children's IQ scores at 4 and 13 years. (MDM)
