Research byte: Investment traits and intelligence - meta-analytic review

I am a huge fan of the aptitude work of Richard Snow which has influenced the work of the likes of Dr. Phil Ackerman and his PPIK model of adult intelligence. All of this work fits within the "Beyond IQ" series of posts I have made for many years.  

Today I was pleased to see a new meta-analytic review by von Stumm and Ackerman that investigated the relations between "investment traits" and intelligence. A preview of the article is below. [Click on images to enlarge]

g (generl intelligence) t-shirt

I was picking and poking around the intelligence web today and re-visited the London School of Individual Differences web page.  I found they had a few t-shirts for sale.  One is a simple "g" (general intelligence) shirt.  Maybe a nice B-day or XMAS gift for your favorite IQ nut or psychometric quantoid.
