The Relation of Speeded and Unspeeded Reasoning with Mental Speed.

Wilhelm, Oliver; Schulze, Ralf

Intelligence, v30 n6 p537-54 2002

Studied the contribution of mental speed to task performance on reasoning tasks under timed and untimed conditions for 227 participants and for 90 participants working under time conditions. Results suggest that the use of speeded reasoning tests is likely to lead to overestimates of the relation between mental speed and reasoning ability. (SLD)
