In response to Anastasi's (1958) long-standing challenge, the authors propose an empirically testable theoretical model that (a) goes beyond and qualifies established behavioral genetics paradigm by allowing for nonadditive synergistic effects, direct measures of environment, mechanisms organism-environment interaction, called proximal processes, through which genotypes are transformed into phenotypes; (b) hypothesizes estimates heritability (e.g., h2) increase markedly with magnitude...

Despite a century's worth of research, arguments surrounding the question whether far transfer occurs have made little progress toward resolution. The authors argue reason for this confusion is failure to specify various dimensions along which can occur, resulting in comparisons "apples and oranges." They provide framework that describes 9 relevant show literature productively be classified these dimensions, with each study situated at intersection dimensions. Estimation single effect size...
Abstract A growing interest in and concern about the adequacy fairness of modern peer-review practices publication funding are apparent across a wide range scientific disciplines. Although questions reliability, accountability, reviewer bias, competence have been raised, there has very little direct research on these variables. The present investigation was an attempt to study process directly, natural setting actual journal referee evaluations submitted manuscripts. As test materials we...
Explanations for women's underrepresentation in math-intensive fields of science often focus on sex discrimination grant and manuscript reviewing, interviewing, hiring. Claims that women scientists suffer these arenas rest a set studies undergirding policies programs aimed at remediation. More recent robust empiricism, however, fails to support assertions domains. To better understand its causes, we reprise claims their evidentiary bases. Based review the past 20 y data, suggest some are no...
Much has been written in the past two decades about women academic science careers, but this literature is contradictory. Many analyses have revealed a level playing field, with men and faring equally, whereas other suggested numerous areas which field not level. The only widely-agreed-upon conclusion that are underrepresented college majors, graduate school programs, professoriate those fields most mathematically intensive, such as geoscience, engineering, economics, mathematics/computer...
This is a review of the relationship between schooling, IQ, and cognitive processes presumed to underpin IQ. The data suggest that much causal pathway IQ schooling points in direction importance quantity one attains (highest grade successfully completed). Schooling fosters development performance on most tests. In western nations, conveys this influence cognition through practices appear unrelated systematic variation quality schools. If correct, could have implications for meaning attaches...
The empirical basis for the child sexual abuse accommodation syndrome (CSAAS), a theoretical model that posits sexually abused children frequently display secrecy, tentative disclosures, and retractions of statements was reviewed. Two data sources were evaluated: retrospective studies adults’ reports having been as concurrent or chart-review undergoing evaluation treatment abuse. evidence indicates majority do not reveal during childhood. However, fails to support notion denials,...
Significance The underrepresentation of women in academic science is typically attributed, both scientific literature and the media, to sexist hiring. Here we report five hiring experiments which faculty evaluated hypothetical female male applicants, using systematically varied profiles disguising identical scholarship, for assistant professorships biology, engineering, economics, psychology. Contrary prevailing assumptions, men members from all four fields preferred applicants 2:1 over...
Children's (N = 176) reported memories of a strange man's visit were studied. Three- to 6-year-olds interviewed repeatedly after the event in one following conditions: (a) control, which no interviews contained suggestive questions; (b) stereotype, children given previsit expectations about stranger; (c) suggestion, erroneous suggestions misdeeds committed by and (d) stereotype plus both pre- postvisit manipulations. Results from open-ended 10 weeks indicated that control participants...
In this article, the authors examined evidence for linkages among 3 variables: schooling, intelligence, and income. They concluded that intelligence schooling have a bidirectional relationship, with each variable influencing variations in other. Moreover, changes both influence economic outcomes. Although any single study of interdependency these variables can be criticized on grounds data are correlational--and consequently open to alternative interpretations--when viewed together, their...
In this paper we review the factors alleged to be responsible for creation of inaccurate reports among preschool-aged children, focusing on so-called "source misattribution errors." We present first round results from an ongoing program research that suggests source misattributions could a powerful mechanism underlying children′s false beliefs about having experienced fictitious events. Preliminary findings indicate all children ages are equally susceptible making misattributions. Data...
Despite impressive employment gains in many fields of science, women remain underrepresented requiring intensive use mathematics. Here we discuss three potential explanations for women's underrepresentation: (a) male-female mathematical and spatial ability gaps, (b) sex discrimination, (c) differences career preferences lifestyle choices. Synthesizing findings from psychology, endocrinology, sociology, economics, education leads to the conclusion that, among a combination interrelated...
Science is among humanity’s greatest achievements, yet scientific censorship rarely studied empirically. We explore the social, psychological, and institutional causes consequences of (defined as actions aimed at obstructing particular ideas from reaching an audience for reasons other than low quality). Popular narratives suggest that driven by authoritarian officials with dark motives, such dogmatism intolerance. Our analysis suggests often scientists, who are primarily motivated...
