Clarifying process versus structure in human intelligence: Stop talking about fluid and crystallized
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 29 (2):136-137 (2006)
| Abstract | Blair presumes the validity of the fluid-crystallized model throughout his article. Two comparative evaluations recently demonstrated that this presumption can be challenged. The fluid-crystallized model offers little to the understanding of the structural manifestation of general intelligence and other more specific abilities. It obscures important issues involving the distinction of pervasive learning disabilities (low general intelligence) from specific, content-related disabilities that impede the development of particular skills.
