- danieltillett 9y agoYes g is abstract, but it is more a summary of all the different factors that go into intelligence. It explains the otherwise very puzzling fact that if you measure one aspect of intelligence (say speed at which someone can do simple arithmetic) you can predict well how well they will do on something totally different (say identifying grammatical errors in a text).
