      The Flynn Effect is not g-loaded (even Flynn himself now admits this); and the g factor is the most heritable component of IQ scores. There's some evidence that g is even decreasing. The cause of the FE is unknown but is plausibly due to practice effects and the like.

      Any papers I can read on that? Also, is there a standard method for decomposing IQ into something more directly correlated with g vs. other factors? And if so, why bother talking about IQ rather than this more informative derived quantity?

      General background on g - Jensen's "The g factor." Flynn's "What is Intelligence" for more on FE. Papers by Linda Gottfriedson are good for more on g. Non-technical example here ->https://www.cato-unbound.org/2007/11/08/linda-s-gottfredson/shattering-logic-explain-flynn-effect …

      For arguments on declining g, see the work of Michael Woodley. https://www.amazon.com/At-Our-Wits-End-Intelligent/dp/184540985X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1541277030&sr=8-1&keywords=Michael+Woodley …

      g is typically computed from Principle Components Analysis (which I am in no way an expert of) from a psychometric test consisting of a battery of subtests. Each subtest's loading on this general factor can then be computed.

      The Flynn Effect is on sub-tests which have very little g loading. Highly g-loaded subtests (like vocabulary and arithmetic) show virtually know change.

      I don't know a lot about calculating heritability beyond the basics. Perhaps others can fill in some technical details. cc: @NoamJStein @pnin1957 @KirkegaardEmil

      Alex, the most prolific researcher on trying to figure out the mysterious of the Flynn effect and its related temporal correlates/causes is Michael Woodley. His output is enormous, so there is plenty to read. Skim his RG for relevant stuff.https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Michael_Woodley_Of_Menie/research …

      I found "The social and scientific temporal correlates of genotypic intelligence and the Flynn effect", which afaict is just gibberish pseudoscience -- I feel like I've wandered into a weird space that's not really legit academia.

      Hey @hardsci & @kph3k -- can you point me to a more legit summary of the current understanding of intelligence measurement, its heritability, Flynn effect, and whether there's any robust method for measuring "g"?
