Bouchard and McGue (1981) found that intelligence must be at least partially inherited because ....

MZ (identical twins) raised apart have higher correlated IQ scores (0.72) than fraternal (DZ) twins raised together (0.60)

DZ (fraternal twins) raised apart have higher correlated IQ scores (0.72) than identical (MZ) twins raised together (0.60)

All twins have similar intelligence

What is heritability?

the degree that a trait is due to genetic factors (rather than the environment) within a population

The environment that an individual is raised

What is the cumulative deprivation hypothesis?

The idea that prolonged exposure to a deprived environment will result in IQ score decreasing

The opposite of an enriched environment

The idea that a deprived environment will result in a poorer IQ score than someone from an enriched environment

This image demonstrates the idea of Reaction Range. What is Reaction Range? What side of the debate does RR support?

interaction; The idea that genes set limitations on individual intellectual potential and that the environment then determines where they fall within this range

nurture; the idea that genes set limitations on individual intellectual potential and that the environment then determines where they fall within this range

nature; The idea that genes set limitations on individual intellectual potential and that the environment then determines where they fall within this range

What did Turkheimer (2003) find in regards to the heritability of IQ?

That people from low SES communities had a lower heritability of IQ than people from high SES communities

That a deprived environment resulted in lower IQ scores

That people from low SES communities had a higher heritability of IQ than people from high SES communities

The nature (genetic) argument relies on what supporting evidence?

twin/adoption studies, heritability

Reaction Range and Turkheimer's (2003) findings

adoption studies, deprived/enriched environment studies, The Flynn effect

What is the Flynn effect? When was it proposed?

the idea that IQ scores have increased over generations; 1998

the idea that IQ scores have increased over generations; 1970

the idea that IQ scores have decreased over generations; 1998

the idea that IQ scores have decreased over generations; 1970

What did Scarr and Weinberg (1976) find in their study of African American children?

That when children were removed from disadvantaged circumstances and placed into middle- and upper-class adoptive homes, IQ scores improved by 10-12 due to environmental enrichment

That when children were removed from disadvantaged circumstances and placed into middle- and upper-class adoptive homes, IQ scores improved by an average of 29 points due to environmental enrichment

that when children were adopted into middle and upper-class homes, they showed no improvement in their IQ scores

What is the formula used to calculate IQ? format: (_/_) x _

(mental age/chronological age) x 100

Which of the following critiques the idea that intelligence is the ability to think logically?

Thinking logically omits important skills such as body-kinesthetic abilities and spatial abilities

Thinking logically involves problem solving and critical thinking

Logical thinking equals intelligence, therefore, there is no critique.

The idea that intelligence is more than logical thinking but also includes important skills such as verbal abilities and musical talent causes critics to think which of the following...

Critics suggest these "intelligence" are really just talent and skills

Critics think 8 types of intelligence is way too many

Critics think verbal abilities and musical talents are learned behaviors

What is the definition of intelligence?

The “… capacity to act purposely, to think rationally, and to deal effectively with the environment”

The "... ability to do well in school"

The “… capacity to deal effectively with the environment”

Which of the following is a limitation of twin studies?

The samples are not representative.

It is not possible to really know if a twin is monozygotous or dizygotous

It is difficult to find samples.

A high heritability correlation for intelligence suggests that:

heredity has a large influence on an individual's mean IQ score.

heredity has no influence on an individual's mean IQ score.

heredity has little influence on an individual's mean IQ score.

heredity has the same influence on an individual's mean IQ score as environment does.

Environmental influences that may enhance an individual's intellectual ability include:

good educational opportunities, a healthy living environment and family who actively interact with children.

good educational opportunities, poverty and family who actively interact with children.

good educational opportunities, a healthy living environment and limited talking in the home during early childhood.

limited educational opportunities, a healthy living environment and family who actively interact with children.

Two of the most commonly used intelligence tests are the:

Stanford-Binet and Wechsler's intelligence scales.

Terman-Binet and Wechsler's intelligence scales.

Simon-Binet and Wexler's intelligence scales.

Simon-Binet and Wechsler's intelligence scales.
