James R. Flynn presents an exciting new method for estimating the effects of family on a range of cognitive abilities. Rather than using twin and adoption studies, he analyses IQ tables that have been hidden in manuals over the last 65 years, and shows that family environment can confer a significant advantage or disadvantage to your level of intelligence. Wading into the nature vs. nurture debate, Flynn banishes the pessimistic notion that by the age of seventeen, people's cognitive abilities are solely determined by their genes. He argues that intelligence is also influenced by human autonomy - genetics and family notwithstanding, we all have the capacity to choose to enhance our cognitive performance. He concludes by reconciling this new understanding of individual differences with his earlier research on intergenerational trends (the 'Flynn effect') culminating in a general theory of intelligence."--|cProvided by publisher 588 0 Print version record. 650 0 Intellect|xGenetics. 650 0 Families. 650 0 Individuality. 650 0 Intelligence tests. 650 0 Genotype-environment interaction. 650 0 Social ecology. 650 0 Intellect. 650 0 Personality. 650 0 Sociology. 650 0 Social psychology. 650 0 Ability|xTesting. 650 0 Biology. 650 0 Social sciences. 650 0 Psychological tests. 650 0 Life sciences. 650 0 Physical sciences. 650 2 Social Environment. 650 2 Intelligence Tests. 650 2 Family. 650 2 Intelligence. 650 2 Individuality. 650 2 Genetics. 650 2 Personality. 650 2 Sociology. 650 2 Psychology, Social. 650 2 Aptitude Tests. 650 2 Biology. 650 2 Behavior and Behavior Mechanisms. 650 2 Social Sciences. 650 2 Psychological Tests. 650 2 Biological Science Disciplines. 650 2 Psychiatry and Psychology. 650 2 Anthropology, Education, Sociology and Social Phenomena. 650 2 Natural Science Disciplines. 650 2 Behavioral Disciplines and Activities. 650 2 Disciplines and Occupations. 650 7 human ecology.|2aat 650 7 sociology.|2aat 650 7 social psychology.|2aat 650 7 biology.|2aat 650 7 social sciences.|2aat 650 7 biological sciences.|2aat 650 7 physical sciences.|2aat 650 7 FAMILY & RELATIONSHIPS|xLife Stages|xGeneral.|2bisacsh 650 7 PSYCHOLOGY|xDevelopmental|xGeneral.|2bisacsh 650 7 PSYCHOLOGY|xDevelopmental|xLifespan Development.|2bisacsh 650 7 PSYCHOLOGY|xGeneral.|2bisacsh 650 7 Intelligence tests.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00975867 650 7 Genotype-environment interaction.|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00940233 650 7 Families.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01728849 650 7 Genetic psychology.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00940076 650 7 Individuality.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00970343 655 0 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aFlynn, James R.
