Tim:
I found the following story on the NPR iPhone App:
"Smart Teenage Brains May Get Some Extra Learning Time"
by Shankar Vedantam
NPR – September 23, 2013
John Hewitt is a neuroscientist who studies the biology of
intelligence. He’s also a parent. Over the years, Hewitt has
periodically drawn upon his scientific knowledge in making
parenting decisions….

Tim:
This was presented in the context of epigentics.
Young brains are more adept at picking up, for example,
language. This diminishes around adolescence, or so we
thought. Now there are findings that higher IQ show an
extended period of adeptness at learning. Due to a increased
sensitivity to the environment.
Could be that genes that lead to higher IQ also lead to
extended learning period.
Mike:
Regarding a relationship (if one exists) to IQ and young
brains:
Look at the graphic below:
The curve of intelligence (whatever form I suspect) diminishes
with age (IQ) and our experience is scaffolded by crystalized
rather than fluid intelligence resulting in a scaffolding of
more or less wisdom — although in my case, it must be
questioned, hehe…
There might be a reason for this…
The older we get the more contained our potential in
values… seems to be, which would vector our potential, thus
limiting perspective, through the filter and biases which
emerge and gain density and frequency based on inborn
motivation…
I’m not sure that thought has entered the meme-sphere… yet
I plan to discuss this in ValuDYNAMICS a little later on in
the year…
However, this can be all modified by another DYNAMIC and that
would, or may exist in concert with, or addition to,
values… capability… and then of course the myriad other
effects such as content, context, conditions, code, culture,
and core that extend themselves into every situational
container.
When you join ValuDynamic @F-L-O-W
in the "References" you will have access to:
– the report: Researchers Debunk the IQ Myth,
– IQ, SES, and Education,
– Intelligence, Judgment & Economic Performance,
a 75 page document
