Intelligence and Teachers' Ratings as Predictors of Abstract and Concrete Learning.

Dean, Raymond S.; Kundert, Deborah King

Journal of School Psychology, v19 n1 p78-85 Spr 1981

Experimental results indicated that verbal intelligence was the best predictor of childrens' overall performance on a paired-associate learning task. Teachers' ratings provided a surprising degree of predictive efficiency for abstract recall which was redundant with verbal intelligence. (Author/JAC)
