Chinese-American and Anglo-American school children were compared on a nonverbal test of intelligence (Raven's Progressive Matrices) and on twelve chronometric variables which measure the speed with which basic information processes (e.g. stimulus apprehension, decision, and discrimination) can be carried out. All of these tasks are correlated with psychometric intelligence. The two groups differed significantly on most of the variables, but the differences appear to be multidimensional and are not simply due to a group difference in psychometric intelligence, equivalent to about 5 IQ points in favour of the Chinese-Americans. The results are compared with those of Lynn and his colleagues on Bristish, Japanese, and Hong Kong children, and both consistencies and inconsistencies are found.
对华裔美国儿童和英裔美国儿童进行了一项非言语智力测试(瑞文渐进矩阵测验)以及十二项计时变量测试,这些变量衡量的是基本信息处理(如刺激感知、决策和辨别)能够执行的速度。所有这些任务都与心理测量智力相关。两组在大多数变量上存在显著差异,但这些差异似乎是多维度的,并非仅仅是由于心理测量智力上的群体差异,华裔美国儿童在心理测量智力方面比英裔美国儿童高出约5个智商点。将这些结果与林恩及其同事对英国、日本和香港儿童的研究结果进行了比较,发现既有一致性也有不一致性。
