Is Speed of Processing Information Related to Intelligence and Achievement?

Speigel, Mona R.; Bryant, N. Dale

Journal of Educational Psychology, v70 n6 p904-10 Dec 1978

Mean response times and slope of response times were correlated with intelligence and achievement for 94 sixth-graders. Mean response time reliability was greater than that of slope, and correlated significantly with IQ and achievement. Speed of processing information generalized across experimental tasks and reliably indicated intellectual ability. (Author/RD)
