Background: The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC) employs a hierarchical model of general intelligence in which index scores separate out different clinically-relevant aspects of intelligence; the test is designed such that index scores are statistically independent from one another within the normative sample. Whether or not the…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is increasingly being used in education, but mostly to support individual teaching and learning. However, there are good reasons to think that thinking together and solving problems together, Collective Intelligence (CI), is also a valuable outcome of education. Accordingly, our main research question is: How can AI be…

The role of intelligence and personality traits in explaining school achievement is crucial. However, their mutual impact on academic success remains unclear due to ambiguous results--the synergistic hypothesis versus the compensatory hypothesis. Additionally, there is a lack of research on representative samples, particularly concerning the…

Children with gifted intellects often earn lower scores on measures of processing speed than their nongifted counterparts. However, neuropsychological research indicates such a profile of scores is likely not due to a true innate neurocognitive processing speed deficit but is rather a statistical artifact resulting from the interference of common…

Sternberg's Theory of Successful Intelligence proposes a broader and more comprehensive view of intelligence beyond traditional measures like IQ. The theory consists of three main components: analytical, creative, and practical intelligence. The theory suggests that gifted individuals have more developed analytical, creative, and practical…

Intellectual functioning impacts defendants' competence to stand trial, though research on this population remains limited. This study replicated and advanced prior work, focusing on defendants' demographic, clinical, cognitive, and criminal justice variables and their association with length of hospitalization and restoration determinations.…

Art generated by artificial intelligence (AI) programs resembling human creative outputs profoundly challenges cultural, social, and psychological conceptions of creativity and its value. Defining creativity within the psychological literature amid the rise of AI poses limitations and highlights the significance of the Expressive Therapies…

This study examined and compared how the trajectories of two types of implicit theories (IT; general intelligence and emotional intelligence EI) evolve over the 3-year period of the Portuguese secondary school period. The effects of students' gender, academic achievement, and EI on the developmental path of IT were also explored. Two hundred…

This study explores the intersection of human intelligence and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to design knowledge-in-use science assessments for supporting students' deep science learning. In the context of evolving educational paradigms, it seeks to harness AI tools (GPT), to enhance knowledge-in-use assessment design, ensuring equitable…

The comprehension of connectives is crucial for understanding the discourse relations that make up a text. We studied connective comprehension in English to investigate whether adult comprehenders acquire the meaning and intended use of connectives to a similar extent and how connective features and individual differences impact connective…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has threatened higher education (HE). In doing so it has granted a portal that makes visible the dominant paradigm that has long defined what "intelligence" is and the narrow set of knowledges and literacies sanctioned for its pursuit. In this paper, we orient our thinking from this clarifying moment, asking:…

The present study aimed to explore the association between creativity, intelligence, and personality. The study recruited sixty healthy volunteers in the age range of 20-40 years from Bengaluru city (formerly Bangalore), South India, and administered tests for fluid intelligence (Raven's Standard Progressive Matrices), personality (Big Five…

Research consistently reports a moderate to a strong relationship between intelligence and academic performance. For about a century, the concept of intelligence has often been used in the definition of giftedness and the identification of gifted students along with other data sources, although some experts are against it. An understanding of…

This article explores the diverse epistemic perspectives on intelligence, tracing its conceptual evolution across early Indian philosophy, Western philosophical thought and contemporary computational theories. Intelligence is examined as a dynamic, multifaceted phenomenon that transcends mere cognition, extending into embodied, ecological and…

This study addresses the investment hypothesis of fluid on crystallised abilities onto academic achievement (Gf [right arrow] Gc [right arrow] "Achievement"), which might hold to a greater extent at earlier than at latter educational stages. We compared this prediction with two independent groups of secondary (n = 192, 113 females) and…
