After removing or suppressing a portion of genetic material, scientists can look for changes in intelligence. Identical twins, whether reared together or apart, tend to score very similarly on standardized measures of intelligence. Genes are an important source of individual variations in intelligence test scores. Stimulating environments result in faster learning and enhanced brain development. Meditation reduces the number of unnecessary axons in the frontal lobes: research on nootropic drugs shows that these drugs can produce increases in intelligence. Module 10. 1: physical development from conception through infancy. Quick quiz 10. 1a: methods for measuring developmental trends: the effects of language deprivation during infancy and childhood is irreversible.
