The Cambridge Handbook of Intelligence (Cambridge Handbooks in Psychology)

"Written by the foremost experts in human intelligence. It not only includes traditional topics, such as the nature, measurement, and development of intelligence, but also contemporary research into intelligence and video games, collective intelligence, emotional intelligence, and leadership intelligence. In an area of study that has been fraught with ideological differences, this Handbook provides scientifically balanced and objective chapters covering a wide range of topics. It does not shy away from material that historically has been emotionally charged and sometimes covered in biased ways, such as intellectual disability, race and intelligence, culture and intelligence, and intelligence testing. The overview provided by this two-volume set leaves virtually no area of intelligence research uncovered, making it an ideal resource for undergraduates, graduate students, and professionals looking for a refresher or a summary of the new developments"--Publisher's description Cover......Page 1 The Cambridge Handbook of Intelligence......Page 2 Copyright......Page 3 The Cambridge Handbook of Intelligence - Title page......Page 4 Dedication......Page 5 Contents......Page 7 Figures......Page 12 Tables......Page 15 Contributors......Page 16 Preface......Page 21 Part I - Intelligence and Its Measurement......Page 23 1 - The Concept of Intelligence......Page 25 2 - A History of Research on Intelligence......Page 40 3 - A History of Research on Intelligence......Page 53 4 - An Alternative View on the Measurement of Intelligence and Its History......Page 69 5 - Factor-Analytic Models of Intelligence......Page 97 Part II - Development of Intelligence......Page 121 6 - Genetic Bases of Intelligence......Page 123 7 - Intelligence in Infancy......Page 146 8 - Intelligence in Childhood......Page 177 9 - Intelligence in Adulthood......Page 203 10 - Developing Intelligence through Instruction......Page 227 Part III - Intelligence and Group Differences......Page 261 11 - Intellectual Disability......Page 263 12 - Prodigies and Savants......Page 280 13 - Intellectual Giftedness......Page 313 14 - Sex Differences in Intelligence......Page 339 15 - Racial and Ethnic Group Differences in Intelligence in the United States......Page 368 16 - Race and Intelligence......Page 395 Part IV - Biology of Intelligence......Page 417 17 - Animal Intelligence......Page 419 18 - The Evolution of Intelligence......Page 450 19 - The Biological Basis of Intelligence......Page 473 Part V - Intelligence and Information Processing......Page 491 20 - Basic Processes of Intelligence......Page 493 21 - Working Memory and Intelligence......Page 526 22 - Intelligence and Reasoning......Page 550 23 - Problem-Solving and Intelligence......Page 575 24 - Intelligence and Decision-Making......Page 602 25 - Artificial Intelligence......Page 624 26 - Intelligence and Video Games......Page 648 Part VI - Kinds of Intelligence......Page 679 27 - The Theory of Multiple Intelligences......Page 681 28 - The Augmented Theory of Successful Intelligence......Page 701 29 - Emotional Intelligence......Page 731 30 - Practical Intelligence......Page 758 31 - Social Intelligence......Page 778 32 - Collective Intelligence......Page 802 33 - Leadership Intelligence......Page 824 34 - Cultural Intelligence......Page 842 35 - Mating Intelligence......Page 868 36 - Consumer and Marketer Intelligence......Page 893 Part VII - Intelligence and Its Role in Society......Page 913 37 - Intelligence in Worldwide Perspective......Page 915 38 - Historical Evolution of Intelligence......Page 938 39 - Secular Changes in Intelligence......Page 962 40 - Society and Intelligence......Page 986 41 - Environment and Intelligence......Page 1010 Part VIII - Intelligence and Allied Constructs......Page 1031 42 - Intelligence and Personality......Page 1033 43 - Intelligence and Achievement......Page 1070 44 - Intelligence and Motivation......Page 1083 45 - Intelligence and Creativity......Page 1109 46 - Intelligence and Rationality......Page 1128 47 - Intelligence and Wisdom......Page 1162 48 - Intelligence and Expertise......Page 1181 Part IX - Folk Conceptions of Intelligence......Page 1199 49 - Self- and Other-Estimates of Intelligence......Page 1201 Part X - Conclusion......Page 1223 50 - Speculations on the Future of Intelligence Research......Page 1225 Author Index......Page 1237 Subject Index......Page 1245 This is the most comprehensive and definitive account of what is known about human intelligence.
