Caffeine improves performance on tests of logical reasoning and problem solving (Smith et al. 1994 Warburton 1995). However, this varies with the task, because no effects are objectively seen on Raven s Progressive Matrices, a test of nonverbal reasoning (Linde 1995)...

Lub/nskJ It s even more clear-cut than that I think. Anyone who just speaks one language is culture bound to being tested using that medium, if you re going to use a language-based vehicle. This is why a lot of cross-cultural research uses things like the Raven matrices, which are just pictorial.

Mackintosh I m aware that it is unfair to cite unpublishable data, but we have done a study ourselves in which we give various marker IQ tests for verbal ability, fluid intelligence and perceptual speed, and inspection time correlates with perceptual speed but not with the other two characteristics. When you do the partial correlations, the correlation of inspection time with Raven s is entirely attributable to its correlation with measures of perceptual speed and nothing else. Much the same conclusion is also suggested by the recent study of Burns et al (1999). 

Flynn With regard to the cross-cultural validity of IQ tests, the IQ gains over time data show that the Dutch gained 20 IQ points on Raven s over a 30-year period, and the Israeli s 9 points in 15 years. So the cultural distance a society travels over time seems to make IQ tests invalid as measures of...

Flynn I m talking about tests that haven t been altered. In the Israeli data, the same derivative from Raven s was used over the entire period. The Dutch was the same, so was the Norwegian and the French. For the Raven s data at least the test was invariant. Interestingly, you don t find a wildly different pattern between unaltered and altered tests. You do find some differences between nations. I m convinced that US gains on Wechsler IQ tests since World War II have been less...
