“…Some have argued that the FE reflects an actual increase in cognitive abilities, due to either environmental changes such as nutrition (Lynn, 1998) or education (Blair, Gamson, Thorne, & Baker, 2005) or heterosis arising from changes in the ratio of heterozygous to homozygous genotypes (Mingroni, 2004). While at least some of the FE appears to reflect an actual increase in abilities (Shiu, Beaujean, Must, te Nijenhuis, & Must, 2013), many researchers have found that the FE is unrelated to general intelligence (g; e.g., Kane & Oakland, 2000;Must, Must, & Raudik, 2003;te Nijenhous & van der Flier, 2013;te Nijenhuis, van Vianen, & van der Flier, 2007), although some have found a rise in g (Shiu, Beaujean, & Wells, 2015).…”
