Raising the IQ: The Ramey and Haskins Study.

Jensen, Arthur R.

Intelligence, v5 n1 p29-40 Jan-Mar 1981

The Ramey and Haskins intervention experiment is examined. Narrow transfer of training from cognitive intervention techniques to IQ test performance in early childhood, rather than enhancement of the g factor itself, is hypothesized as a cause of the typical fadeout of early IQ gains in later childhood.
