Age Differences in the Structure of Intelligence: Influences of Information Processing Speed.
Hertzog, Christopher; Bleckley, M. Kathryn
Intelligence, v29 n3 p191-217 2001
Administered a battery of psychometric ability tests to 211 undergraduates and 622 other adults ranging in age from 43 to 78. Findings were consistent with the view that speed of information processing can be an important correlate of individual differences in rates of intellectual aging and a performance-specific confound that distorts estimates of age-related change in psychometric ability tests.
