Universal positive correlations between different cognitive tests motivate the concept of "general intelligence" or Spearman's g. Here the neural basis for g is investigated by means of positron emission tomography. Spatial, verbal, and perceptuo-motor tasks with high-g involvement are compared with matched low-g control tasks. In contrast to the common view that g reflects a broad sample of ma...

What makes one person more intellectually able than another? Can the entire distribution of human intelligence be accounted for by just one general factor? Is intelligence supported by a single neural system? Here, we provide a perspective on human intelligence that takes into account how general abilities or "factors" reflect the functional organization of the brain. By comparing factor models...

The present study investigates how working memory and fluid intelligence are related in young children and how these links develop over time. The major aim is to determine which aspect of the working memory system – short-term storage or cognitive control drives the relationship with fluid intelligence. A sample of 119 children was followed from kindergarten to second grade and completed multip...

What is agent? Just like Artificial Intelligence (AI), there are multiple definitions to it, however not a single definition could be agreed upon by all researchers and developers in the world. We could view Agent and Agent Oriented Software Engineering (AOSE) as a new programming paradigm that has evolved itself from Object Oriented Software Engineering (OOSE). AOSE has placed greater emphasis...

INTRODUCTION INTERACTION with the real world is of great importance for the advance of human intelligence. Now that the Net has spread worldwide and IT (information technology) is available everywhere, a new kind of social intelligence is about to be born. We need to overhaul the technologies that will be used to connect this new intelligence to the real world. In particular robotics technologi...
