“…The intelligence quotient (IQ) tends to remain relatively stable across development (Deary and Whalley et al, 2000;McArdle and Ferrer-Caja et al, 2002) and the estimation of IQ by means of psychometric tests is an index of relative intelligence that measures how well an individual performs in a cognitive domain with respect to a reference group of the same age. Previously it has been used to correlate low-level sensory discriminations with intelligence (Melnick and Harrison et al, 2013), developmental cognitive abilities with task performance (Pangelinan and Zhang et al, 2011;Smits-Engelsman and Hill, 2012), and neural correlates of specific cognitive abilities (Margolis and Bansal et al, 2013). It is also suggested that the cognitive motor abilities and intelligence may share the same neural substrates (Jung and Yeo et al, 2000;Duncan, 2005;Stevens, 2009).…”
