Subject: [tips] heritability again? 










Just checked my snail mail box and thought I was done with H .. but in my new 
copy of Psych Science, Kan et al .. "On the nature and nurture of Intelligence 
and ...". It gives H estimates for a variety of cognitive abilities and .. low 
and behold .. H estimates are higher with more culture-laden tests like 
Information, Vocabulary, Spelling and Arithmetic than more culture tests such 
as similarities, perceptual speed, memory and inductive reasoning. I would have 
predicted a zero correlation (never a negative), but not necessarily positive!
