there’s a section in here that talks about differences between crystalized intel and fluid intel.
Not sure u know anything abt this does remind me of the 3 kinds of memory in recent piece

Yup, crystallised and fluid intelligence are core components of IQ research. Good catch!

(IQ research happens to be a big interest of mine, but I don’t usually write about it — mostly because it’s useless for the individual practitioner).

How so? And does the two intel type any relation to the three memory type? If so how?

Can’t speak definitively about the relation of the 3 types of memory to the differences in intelligence.
But IQ research in general doesn’t map well to individual outcomes. It’s a population level statistical predictor. Not useful to pay attention to it as a practitioner.

So as a practitioner, you look at memory research. What criteria you use to look at fields useful for practitioner? From the above, I can only form 1 criteria which is don’t look at population level statistical predictors

Actually, look at learning research. Memory research can be very very distracting.
What I've learnt is that you *shouldn't* read neuroscience. You want the right level of abstraction. So: neuroscience is too low level, whereas brain function is often useful.

“The right level of abstraction” is *great* advice.
On my own I did find the chunking model via Barbara Oakley work. Which I believe u covered somewhere.
Any other examples of brain function research?
2
What's the practical implication of chunking btw? Any links?
hmm I thought u're already aware of chunking since u cited the magical number 7+-2 and 4+-1 research in ur article on memory.
I'm still figuring out the practical aspects tho as a explanatory model, I find it interesting. /1

Here's a link journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/a where there are *even* more links in the "Introduction" section pointing to chunking in language processing, visual perception, habit learning, & motor skills.
