What is Intelligence? Beyond the Flynn Effect James R. Flynn, University of Otago, New Zealand

October 2007

978-0-521-88007-7 Hardback c. £14.00

An unrivalled and thought-provoking examination of dramatic increases in IQ gains over the twentieth century.

About the Author

James R. Flynn is Professor Emeritus at the University of Otago, New Zealand and a recipient of the University’s Gold Medal for Distinguished Career Research.

For more information please visit: www.cambridge.org/flynn

By one of the most creative and influential psychologists in the field of intelligence comes an unrivalled ‘must-read’. The ‘Flynn Effect’ refers to Professor James Flynn’s renowned research into the massive increase in IQ test scores over the course of the twentieth century, but do rising IQs actually mean rising intelligence? Flynn gives a surprising and illuminating answer that makes an important contribution to our understanding of human intelligence.

Advanced Praise

The ‘Flynn effect’ … caught the imagination of most people, but also raised controversy through its challenging of several accepted ideas. This highly engaging, and very readable, book takes forward the Dickens and Flynn model of intelligence, but does so in the form of asking yet more provocative questions, whilst simultaneously indicating how their hypotheses might be tested. It is essentially a book in which the originators of an important set of ideas think aloud and seek to get everyone else thinking critically and constructively. A most unusual book, but one that holds the reader’s attention and leaves behind concepts and ideas that force us to rethink all sorts of issues.

Do smiles and frowns mean the same thing when shown by a man or a woman, a manager or an employee, members of different ethnic groups? Although research has extensively studied the social context factors that

influence the expresser’s facial display, the perceiver was considered passive. This up-to-date study focuses on recent development that recognizes that the perceiver is also subject to the same social rules and norms that guide the expresser’s behavior. Psychologists and specialists in non-verbal behaviour, communication, sociology, linguistics, ethology and ethnology will find this of interest.Studies in Emotion and Social Interaction

The Future of GenderEdited by Jude BrowneUniversity of Cambridge

Over recent decades the concept of gender has been used to classify people and to explain their behaviour in social rather than biological terms. This book provides a major new assessment of the effectiveness of the concept. International experts from a range of academic disciplines consider how gender might be conceived in contemporary terms, reflecting radical technological developments, the failures of feminist discourse, the changing nature of inequality between the sexes and female disadvantage in social, legal, and political spheres.

‘The Future of Gender draws together eminent scholars from diverse academic disciplines to interrogate

the conceptual efficacy of ‘gender’ – evaluating whether, and in what ways, ‘gender’ provides a useful category of analysis and a productive basis for an emancipatory politics. This is an original and stimulating collection with high quality essays that challenge existing orthodoxies, and one another, in interesting and provocative ways.’Judith Squires, Professor of Political Theory, University of Bristol

What is Intelligence?Beyond the Flynn EffectJames R. FlynnUniversity of Otago, New Zealand

Professor James Flynn is one of the most creative and influential psychologists in the field of intelligence. The ‘Flynn Effect’ refers to the massive increase in IQ test scores over the course of the twentieth century and the term was coined to recognize Professor Flynn’s central role in measuring and analyzing these gains. For over twenty years, psychologists have struggled to understand the implications of IQ gains. Do they mean that each generation is more intelligent than the last? Do they suggest how each of us can enhance our own intelligence? Professor Flynn is finally ready to give his own views. He asks what intelligence really is and gives a surprising and illuminating answer. This book bridges the gulf that separates our minds from those of our ancestors a century ago. It is a fascinating and unique book that makes an important contribution to our understanding of human intelligence.

• The style is simple and direct and yet even experts will find their understanding of intelligence enhanced

• Boxes and figures make IQ trends easy to comprehend

• Tables have been reserved for an Appendix but experts will find the data of great value

‘The ‘Flynn effect’ (i.e. the rise in IQ over time) caught the imagination of most people, but also raised controversy through its challenging of several accepted ideas. This highly engaging, and very readable, book takes forward the Dickens and Flynn model of intelligence, but does so in the form of asking yet more provocative questions, whilst simultaneously indicating how their hypotheses might be tested.

Why Life Speeds Up As You Get OlderHow Memory Shapes our PastDouwe DraaismaRijksuniversiteit Groningen, The Netherlands

Translated by Arnold Pomeransand Erica Pomerans

Where do the long, lazy summers of our childhood go? Why is it that as we grow older time seems to condense, speed up, elude us while in old age significant events from our past can seem as vivid as what happened yesterday? In this enchanting book (shortlisted for the 2005 Aventis Prize), Douwe Draaisma, author of the internationally acclaimed Metaphors of Memory, explores the nature of autobiographical memory and extraordinary phenomena such as déjà-

vu, the memory feats of idiot-savants or the effects of extreme trauma on memory recall.

‘It is a joy to read with chapters on déjà vu, savants, trauma and first to last memories, providing a fresh and cogent look at how and why we remember.’Publishing News

Contents: 1. ‘Memory is like a dog that lies down where it pleases’; 2. Flashes in the dark: first memories; 3. Smell and memory; 4. Yesterday’s record; 5. The inner flashbulb; 6. ‘Why do we remember forwards and not backwards?’ 7. The absolute memories of Funes and Sherashevsky; 8. The advantages of a defect: the savant syndrome; 9. The memory of a grandmaster: a conversation with Ton Sijbrands; 10. Trauma and memory: the Demjanjuk case; 11.

Human-Machine ReconfigurationsPlans and Situated ActionsSecond editionLucy A. Suchman

This book provides a new way of understanding how human actions and technological artifacts are intertwined. Through examples of robots, web-based software agents, and a range of other contemporary projects in computer system design, the author shows how leading edge technologies can rest on very old-fashioned assumptions, while more modest initiatives suggest innovative approaches to technology design and use. These new developments not only change how we think about machines, but also transform our sense of what it means to be human.2007 228 x 152 mm 326pp 15 tables 978-0-521-85891-5 HB £45.00 978-0-521-67588-8 PB £17.99

Creativity and Reason in Cognitive DevelopmentEdited by James C. KaufmanCalifornia State University, San Bernardino

and John BaerRider University, New Jersey

To what extent do creativity and imagination decline in childhood? What factors might influence a decline? Is there something about the development of one kind of thinking that undermines imaginative and creative thinking? Is it perhaps the process of schooling itself, with its focus on the acquisition of knowledge and the production of correct (rather than imaginative) answers, which promotes this decline? This book explores these questions from a variety of perspectives. Essays from psychologists and educators from diverse backgrounds discuss the relationships among creativity, reason, and knowledge.2006 228 x 152 mm 388pp 978-0-521-84385-0 HB £45.00 978-0-521-60504-5 PB £18.99

Imitation and Social Learning in Robots, Humans and AnimalsBehavioural, Social and Communicative DimensionsEdited by Chrystopher L. NehanivUniversity of Hertfordshire

and Kerstin DautenhahnUniversity of Hertfordshire

This book studies models and mechanisms of social matching behaviour and marks an important step towards the development of an interdisciplinary research field, consolidating and providing a valuable reference for the increasing number of researchers in the field of imitation and social learning in robots, humans and animals.

‘Imitation and Social Learning in Robots, Humans, and Animals advances our understanding of the diversity of “imitations” and how much is to be learned from comparing them across species as diverse as parrots, butterflies, and even a male cuttlefish impersonating a female in a breeding pair – and thence to humans and their primate cousins and the brain mechanisms which support imitation and social learning. This book offers a rich set of processing strategies of importance to key areas of computer science, like robotics and embodied communication – and this new understanding factors back into novel theories of human social interaction and its disorders.’Michael Arbib, University Professor, Fletcher Jones Chair in Computer Science and Professor of Biological Sciences and Biomedical Engineering, University of Southern California

Discursive Research in PracticeNew Approaches to Psychology and InteractionEdited by Alexa HepburnLoughborough University

and Sally WigginsUniversity of Strathclyde

Over the past few decades a new sophisticated analytic approach to social action has been developed, combining conversation analysis with the fresh treatment of epistemology, mind, cognition and personality developed in discursive psychology. This text is the first to promote this newly developed method of discursive research in practice. Featuring contributions from a range of international academics, both pioneers in the field and exciting new researchers, this book illustrates an approach to social science issues that cuts across the traditional disciplinary divisions to provide a rich participant-based understanding of action.2007 228 x 152 mm 464pp 1 line diagram 5 half-tones 978-0-521-84929-6 HB c. £60.00 978-0-521-61409-2 PB c. £21.99 Publication June 2007

and Stephen MatthewsThe Chinese University of Hong Kong

This book presents a series of case studies in early bilingual development involving a so far largely unstudied and divergent pair of languages, Cantonese and English. This intimate account is presented through the author’s dual perspectives as parent-researchers continuously observing and participating in their own children’s bilingual experience, and demonstrates how childhood bilingualism develops naturally in response to the two languages in their environment. This interdisciplinary work will be of interest to scholars and students of psycholinguistics, developmental psychology and bilingualism.Cambridge Approaches to Language Contact

Language Development and AgeJulia HerschensohnUniversity of Washington

Professor Herschensohn examines whether early childhood is a critical period for language acquisition after which individuals cannot learn language as native speakers. First language is largely susceptible to age constraints, showing major deficits past age twelve. Second language acquisition also shows age effects, but with a range of individual differences.2007 228 x 152 mm 270pp 12 line diagrams 7 tables 978-0-521-87297-3 HB c. £55.00 Publication August 2007

Metaphor in CultureUniversality and VariationZoltán KövecsesLoránd Eötvös University, Budapest

Cognitive linguists have done important work on universal aspects of metaphor, but they have paid much less attention to why metaphors vary both interculturally and intraculturally as extensively as they do. In this book, Zoltán Kövecses proposes a new theory of metaphor variation.

‘The book is … thorough and provides a good overview of existing theories before going on to develop these. … an informative, readable and at times entertaining overview of metaphor and culture.’Psychologist

Handbook of East Asian PsycholinguisticsVolume 2: JapaneseEdited by Mineharu NakayamaOhio State University

Reiko MazukaDuke University, North Carolina

and Yasuhiro ShiraiUniversity of Pittsburgh

General Editor Ping LiUniversity of Richmond, Virginia

A large body of knowledge has accumulated in recent years on the cognitive processes and brain mechanisms underlying language. Much of this knowledge has come from studies of Indo-European languages, in particular English. Japanese, a language of growing interest to linguists, differs significantly from most Indo-European languages in its grammar, its lexicon, and its written and spoken forms – features which have profound implications for the learning, representation and processing of language. This handbook, the second in a three-volume series on East Asian psycholinguistics, presents a state-of-the-art discussion of the psycholinguistic study of Japanese. With contributions by over fifty leading scholars, it covers

topics in first and second language acquisition, language processing and reading, language disorders in children and adults, and the relationships between language, brain, culture, and cognition. It will be invaluable to all scholars and students interested in the Japanese language, as well as cognitive psychologists, linguists, and neuroscientists.

Discourse and IdentityEdited by Anna De FinaGeorgetown University, Washington DC

The relationship between language, discourse and identity has always been a major area of sociolinguistic investigation, which in recent years has been revolutionized by some pioneering models and approaches. By applying these new analytical tools and concepts, Discourse and Identity shows how we build images of ourselves through language, how society moulds us into different categories, and how we negotiate our membership of those categories. Drawing on numerous interactional settings, genres, and communities, this revealing volume sheds new light on how our social

Emotions and MultilingualismAneta PavlenkoTemple University, Philadelphia

How do bilinguals experience emotions? Do they perceive and express emotions similarly or differently in their respective languages? Pavlenko challenges the monolingual bias of modern linguistics and psychology by bringing together insights from the fields of linguistics, neurolinguistics, bilingualism, psychology, anthropology, psychoanalysis, and literary theory. Thought provoking with wide appeal.

‘Aneta Pavlenko’s book is a welcome and enriching addition to the field of bilingualism and multilingualism, addressing the topic of the relationship between emotions and multilingualism. As a first attempt to bring together these two fields,

this book must be applauded as an important addition to the study of multilingualism. … this book is well-written … an updated, interesting, and integrated account of the state of the art on the interface between affect and multilingualism … as is true of every good scholarly volume, her book raises more questions than it answers and should therefore be read by all scholars of multilingualism.’Journal of Cognitive Education and Psychology
