Quebec has the highest non graduation rate in Canada. The personal and social consequences are numerous, with long term repercussions. Even if a low intelligence quotient (IQ) is an important risk factor of school dropout, some factors may influence this association. purpose study to investigate moderating effect student-teacher relationship on association between IQ dropout using data SIAA (St...

OBJECTIVE Body mass index (BMI) and intelligence quotient (IQ) are associated. We examined whether this association varied by birth cohort. METHODS Among 37,414 Danish conscripts, the association between BMI and IQ overall and by birth cohort was examined. IQ was measured by the Børge Prien's Prøve (BPP) group intelligence test score. RESULTS Compared with men of normal BMI, mean difference...

Although some scholars maintain that education has little effect on intelligence quotient (IQ) scores, others claim that IQ scores are indeed malleable, primarily through intervention in early childhood. The causal effect of education on IQ at later ages is often difficult to uncover because analyses based on observational data are plagued by problems of reverse causation and self-selection int...

The intelligence quotient (IQ) is typically associated with the architecture of gray and white matter in specific brain regions, and this association appears to be genetically based. However, specific sources of genetic variation for the association have not been studied extensively. Using diffusion tensor imaging in 15 mental retardation patients and 80 healthy volunteers, we studied the assoc...

In this study, some executive function measures (Wisconsin Card Sorting Test [WCST], verbal fluency, and Trial Making Test [TMT], Form A and Form B) were correlated with Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Revised (WISC-R) scores. Fifty 13- to 16-year-old normal children were selected. It was found that verbal fluency tests correlated about 0.30 with Verbal Intelligence Quotient (IQ) and F...

introduction: children with cochlear implants (cis) may experience few opportunities for positive musical experiences, and musical perception is therefore often not sufficiently developed. this paper investigates and discusses the relationship between intelligence quotient (iq) and musical ability in children with cis compared with children with normal hearing.                                  ...

Emotional Intelligence (EI) theory has stirred up interest of researchers and policy makers. As opposed to mere reliance on Intelligent Quotient (IQ) as contributing to success in education, proponents of EI theory emphasize its fundamental role in different aspects of academic achievement. Therefore, the present study aimed to explore the relationship between EI and writing ability of Iranian ...

A total of 217 mentally retarded people in auxiliary schools and sunshine homes took the action test implemented by self-developed testing tools. The results of statistical treatment indicates as follows: there is no significant difference in projects featuring imitation between the moderate or severe and the mild mentally retarded people; The relationship between intelligence quotient (IQ) and...

Background: Waning controversy over fluoride and water fluoridation is rekindling with the findings released from certain fluoride studies which reported an inverse association between fluoride exposure and intelligence. Objective: To assess the relationship between exposure to different drinking water fluoride levels and children's Intelligence Quotient (IQ) among 13-15 year old school childre...
