Protzko is more optimistic than I am about IQ gains from envir. interventions, but we agree that they need to do large, pre-reg studies.pic.twitter.com/Qf6fmuauTN

I'm an armchair IQ junkie, so I don't know too much about it, but besides the n-back studies (which i've heard are dubious at best), are -

- there any studies that look promising for raising IQ in healthy adults?
-
Raising IQ is easy, just re-take the test. Raising general intelligence is hard, maybe not possible. Reading might work somewhat.
-
It makes much more sense to try to raise practical skills, such as programming ability, than essentially static traits like GI.
-
Ah, yes. I should have been more specific: raising the underlying construct IQ measures! And I see. So, do you think increasing g would -

- not have a substantive transfer effect on one's general ability to solve novel problems?
-
It certainly would, if only we knew how to raise it. Lack of transfer is good evidence that we aren't raising it at all.
