Ronnlund, Michael; Nilsson, Lars-Goran – Intelligence, 2008
To estimate Flynn effects (FEs) on forms of declarative memory (episodic, semantic) and visuospatial ability (Block Design) time-sequential analyses of data for Swedish adult samples (35-80 years) assessed on either of four occasions (1989, 1994, 1999, 2004; n = 2995) were conducted. The results demonstrated cognitive gains across occasions,…

Odd-Man-Out and Intelligence.

Diascro, Matthew N.; Brody, Nathan – Intelligence, 1994
The relationship between odd-man-out reaction time tasks and intelligence was examined in 2 experiments involving 79 college students. The two experiments indicate that tasks that assess the ability to perceive relationships among stimuli rapidly are good measures of general intelligence. (SLD)

Reaction Time and Movement Time as Measures of Stimulus Evaluation and Response Processes.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Houlihan, Michael; And Others – Intelligence, 1994
Three studies involving 16 college students explored cognitive processes reflected by reaction time (RT) and movement time (MT). The hypothesis that correlations of RT and MT with measures of intelligence are due to effects on a common stage of information processing cannot be rejected on the basis of study findings. (SLD)
