The big picture ecological systems perspective of intelligence (and IQ tests): Is COVID disrupting and rearranging the hierarchy of ecological system influences on children's learning?
Understanding intelligence testing in the context ofBronfrenbrenner ' s ecological systems model--is COVID seriously damaging, rearranging, decoupling, etc. the major proximal and distal sources of influence on a child ' s learning, resulting in a need to look closer at non-cognitive (conative) variables...beyond IQ?This morning I revisited one of my favorite videos (of those I have posted), first posted in 2015, where I explained how intelligence testing needed to be understood in the context ofdistal andproximal influences in a child ' s environment.  I believe that a " big picture " understanding of the wide range ...

Decker provides cogent response to Dombrowski et al's " all there is is g " bifactor intelligence research
 https://doi.org/10.1177%2F0734282920977718AbstractThe current article provides a response to concerns raised by Dombrowski, McGill, Canivez, Watkins,& Beaujean (2020) regarding the methodological confounds identified by Decker, Bridges, Luedke, and Eason (2020) for using a bifactor (BF) model and Schmid –Leiman (SL) procedure in previous studies supporting a general factor of intelligence (i.e., " g " ). While Dombrowski et al. (2020) raised important theoretical and practical issues, the theoretical justification for using a BF model and SL procedure to identify cognitive dimensio...

No negative Flynn effect in France: Why variations of intelligence should not be assessed using tests based on cultural knowledge - ScienceDirect
Article link - IntelligenceAbstractIn 2015, Dutton and Lynn published an account of a decrease of intelligence in France (negative Flynn effect) which had considerable societal impact. This decline was argued to be biological. However, there is good reason to be skeptical of these conclusions. The claim of intelligence decline was based on the finding of lower scores on the WAIS-III (normed in 1999) for a recent sample, but careful examination of the data suggests that this decline was in fact limited to subtests with a strong influence of culture-dependent declarative knowledge. In Study 1, we re-analyzed the data used by...
