Religiosity Is Associated with a More Feminine Intelligence Profile: Evidence from the National Longitudinal Study of Youth, 1979 Personality and Individual Differences 173 (April 2021): 110640. Also: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0191886921000155 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Elsevier Keyword(s): Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB); Gender Differences; I.Q.; Intelligence; Religious Influences Many studies have found a small negative correlation between religiousness and intelligence measured by IQ tests, and many others have found that females are more religious than males. Still other studies have demonstrated that the IQ profile of females is different from that of males, with females tending to be higher than males in some abilities and lower in others. This raises the intriguing question of whether religiousness may be correlated with a more stereotypically female intelligence profile. We tested whether this was the case using the NLSY 79 (N = 12,686). The NLSY shows that religiousness, using the proxy of regular church attendance, is not only higher among females but is also associated with a female profile of abilities even among males (r = 0.92). We argue that this is potentially consistent with evidence that Autism Spectrum Disorder is negatively associated with religiosity. |

Sinistrality Is Associated with (slightly) lower General Intelligence: A Data Synthesis and Consideration of Secular Trend Data in Handedness HOMO: Journal of Comparative Human Biology 69,3 (May 2018): 118-126. Also: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0018442X18300246 Cohort(s): NLSY79, NLSY97 Publisher: Elsevier Keyword(s): Cross-national Analysis; Handedness; I.Q.; Intelligence; NCDS - National Child Development Study (British) The relationship between the general factor of intelligence (g) and handedness is investigated using a combined sample of 23511 respondents from three large databases: the NLSY'79 (US), NLSY'97 (US) and NCDS (UK). Dextrals -- those who use their right hands -- were found to be 1.22 IQ points higher than sinistrals (left handers) after controling for sex and age and correcting for sources of measurement error. |
