Buckley, Jeffrey; Seery, Niall; Canty, Donal – Educational Psychology Review, 2018
An abundance of empirical evidence exists identifying a significant correlation between spatial ability and educational performance particularly in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). Despite this evidence, a causal explanation has yet to be identified. Pertinent research illustrates that spatial ability can be developed and…

Gustafsson, Jan-Eric. – Intelligence, 1984
This study was designed to test the reliability of five major models of the structure of cognitive abilities. A battery of 16 tests was administered to 1000 Swedish sixth graders. Based on the results, a three-level hierarchical LISREL-based model (the HILI-model) is suggested. (Author/EGS)

Dunst, Carl J. – Intelligence, 1978
An historical overview of investigations concerned with delineating the structure and composition of infant intellectual activity is presented. Earlier conceptualizations characterized infant intelligence as a unitary trait or factor. Recent studies contend that infant intellectual activity is comprised of varied sets of relatively independent…

Tal, Joseph S. – 1985
This review of the relevant literature in the area of numerical facility attempts to clarify the construct of numerical facility and provide guidance for items tapping this ability. The review is presented in five parts. The first section introduces two approaches that can be used to investigate numerical facility, including factor analysis.…

Laurent, Jeff; And Others – Psychological Assessment, 1992
Validity studies conducted with the Stanford Binet Intelligence Scale: Fourth Edition (SB:FE) are reviewed. Results support its validity as a measure of general mental ability and that it can distinguish between groups of youngsters with differing intellectual abilities. Recommendations are made for use of the SB:FE. (SLD)

Humphreys, Lloyd G. – Intelligence, 1979
The construct of general intelligence is discussed in the context of factor models, differential validity of tests, Piagetian tasks, heritability, social class, and race. The general factor is an abstraction resulting from genes, environmental pressures, and neural structures involved in cognitive or intellectual human behavior. (Author/RD)

Diamond, Stephen R.; Royce, Joseph R. – Multivariate Behavioral Research, 1980
Factor analytic studies suggest that there are six replicable second order cognitive factors. These six factors lend themselves to being interpreted as aspects of Royce's three ways of knowing: conceptual, perceptual, or symbolical. This view provides a unified explanation of the second and third order factors. (Author/CTM)

Ekstrom, Ruth B.; And Others – Multivariate Behavioral Research Monographs, 1979
This summarizes a study designed to provide a basis for researchers who study measurable areas of human performance or attempt to conceptualize and develop a theory and structure of abilities. Specifically, this study was directed toward the identification of tests that can serve as markers for well established cognitive factors. (Author/CTM)
