Multiple Bases of Human Intelligence Revealed by Cortical Thickness and Neural Activation

The finding that fluid and crystallized components of intelligence are related to brain function and structure with a distinct profile of association across brain regions is validated by generating a neurometric prediction model of intelligence quotient (IQ) that explained 50% of variance in IQ in an independent sample.

Distributed neural system for general intelligence revealed by lesion mapping

It is suggested that general intelligence draws on connections between regions that integrate verbal, visuospatial, working memory, and executive processes to reflect the combined performance of brain systems involved in cognitive tasks or draws on specialized systems mediating their interactions.

Neural mechanisms of general fluid intelligence

Multiple regression analyses indicated that lateral prefrontal and parietal regions may mediate the relation between ability (gF) and performance (accuracy despite interference), providing constraints on the neural mechanisms that support gF.

Differential patterns of cortical activation as a function of fluid reasoning complexity

Evidence is provided for neural differences in facing reasoning complexity among subjects with different gf level that are mediated by specific patterns of activation of the underlying fronto‐parietal network.

The Parieto-Frontal Integration Theory (P-FIT) of intelligence: Converging neuroimaging evidence

It is proposed that the P-FIT provides a parsimonious account for many of the empirical observations, to date, which relate individual differences in intelligence test scores to variations in brain structure and function.

Human intelligence and brain networks

A new key phase of research is beginning to investigate how functional networks relate to structural networks, with emphasis on how distributed brain areas communicate with each other.

An integrative architecture for general intelligence and executive function revealed by lesion mapping.

The observed findings support an integrative framework for understanding the architecture of general intelligence and executive function, supporting their reliance upon a shared fronto-parietal network for the integration and control of cognitive representations and making specific recommendations for the application of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale and Delis-Kaplan Executive Function System to the study of high-level cognition in health and disease.

Models of Working Memory: Mechanisms of Active Maintenance and Executive Control

This paper presents a meta-analyses of working memory from the perspective of the EPIC architecture for modelling skilled perceptual-motor and cognitive human performance and discusses the role of language, attention, and inhibitory mechanisms in this performance.
