Correlations among Cognitive Abilities Are Lower for Higher Ability Groups.
Legree, Peter J.; And Others
Intelligence, v23 n1 p45-57 Jul-Aug 1996
A sample of 9173 noninstitutionalized youth who took the 1980 Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) was divided into five ability levels. Analysis supports the assertion that cognitive abilities are less correlated in higher ability groups and implies that greater classification effects can be associated with more intelligent groups.
