Product Information

This text provides a comprehensive treatment of one of the major constructs of behavioural science - general mental ability - labelled the g factor by its discoverer, Charles Spearman.

The author explains the psychometric, statistical, genetic and physiological basis of g , as well as the major theoretical challenges to the concept. For decades a key construct in researchers in the brain sciences as well as education, sociology, anthropology, evolutionary psychology, economics, and public policy is clearly evident in this treatment of g .
