But you won't find much more in this, unfortunately. For the link (or lack thereof) between IQ and critical reasoning search for Stanovich, it's mostly his own research. For link between (parts of) critical reasoning and academic success look up Mischel's marshmallow experiment. Personally I never saw 0.8 correlations with IQ mentioned anywhere, so I'd be grateful for a pointer.
- thras 17y agoImpulse control is strongly linked with IQ. Also, which 0.8 correlation were you asking about?
- radu_floricica 17y agoCan you point me in a direction for source? Academic success and income, sorry.
- thras 17y agoHere's .8 for academic success: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6W4M-4JDN6DP-1&_user=10&_rdoc=1&_fmt=&_orig=search&_sort=d&_docanchor=&view=c&_searchStrId=1019133181&_rerunOrigin=scholar.google&_acct=C000050221&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=10&md5=d0b35c11d3cfc5adc9e36136d4b0f9f8 http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi... I'm sorry about the number for income -- everyone has it at a correlation of .3 to .6. I believe that I was thinking of Lynn's numbers for national incomes, which is correlated at .7 or so to average IQ.
