Faith is Not Enough: A Response to the Baltes-Schaie Claim That Intelligence Does Not Wane

Horn, John L.; Donaldson, Gary

American Psychologist, 32, 5, 369-73, May 77

Concludes "that the one seemingly serious effort of Baltes and Schaie to contest the points of the Horn-Donaldson criticisms only brings us around to the same sad conclusion: that no matter how one looks at the Schaie data, it suggests that, on the average, there is age decline in many important abilities of intelligence."
