Depends on number of tests and number of factors extracted. Cattel: fluid vs. crystallized: as you age, fluid intelligence decreases and crystallized intelligence increases. Depends on the test you use to measure it. Depends on how you interpret the tests. Intelligence is what you measure and how you interpret it. Telling lies - breaking eye contact, filled pause um Non content aspects of speech: tone of voice, speed, amplitude, rise time/fall time, hesitations and pauses.
