- Role of Intelligence in Society (AmericanScientist.org - Hunt)
"Are social changes dividing us into intellectual haves and have-nots? The question pushed aside in the 1970s is back, and the issues are far from simple."
"The results of these independent analyses were quite consistent. Skipping over some details, human intellectual competence appears to divide along three dimensions. Following Raymond Cattell (1971) and John Horn (1985), I shall refer to these dimensions as fluid intelligence (Gf), crystallized intelligence (Gc), and visual-spatial reasoning (Gv). Cattell and Horn describe them as follows:"
"Fluid intelligence is the ability to develop techniques for solving problems that are new and unusual, from the perspective of the problem solver."
"Crystallized intelligence is the ability to bring previously acquired, often culturally defined, problem-solving methods to bear on the current problem. Note that this implies both that the problem solver knows the methods and recognizes that they are relevant in the current situation."
"Visual-spatial reasoning is a somewhat specialized ability to use visual images and visual relationships in problem solving, for instance, to construct in your mind a picture of the sort of mental space that I described above in discussing factor-analytic studies. Interestingly, visual-spatial reasoning appears to be an important part of understanding mathematics." 12-03
