摘要
Nature as well as nurture contributes to the development of individual differences in intelligence. Genetic research on intelligence has moved beyond this rudimentary nature-nurture question to make several exciting discoveries about intelligence by investigating developmental change and continuity, multivariate associations among cognitive abilities, and the developmental interface between nature and nurture. Advances in molecular genetics have led to the dawn of a new era for genetic research that makes it possible to identify specific genes responsible for genetic influence on cognitive abilities and disabilities.
