There's a pattern that predicts who does well on IQ tests: people who spend more time on hard problems.
New work w/ @samisaguy extends a 40 year old finding about the role of effort in IQ testing, showing why these tests aren't bare measures of "intelligence."
Just under one week to apply for the Primate Cognition and the Child Development Lab Manager Positions!
