Brain-intelligence relationships across childhood and adolescence: A latent-variable approach

The analysis of the relationships between cortical and intellectual development is a complex matter. Greater brain plasticity in brighter individuals has been suggested, but the associations between developmental cortical changes and variations in the general factor of intelligence (g) across time a...
