“…Response accuracy and response speed were both higher for HA compared to LA participants. This pattern of findings is in line with the results obtained previously by Bazana and Stelmack (2002) and others using a backward masking paradigm (Raz & Willerman, 1985;Raz, Willerman, Ingmundson, & Hanlon, 1983). In broad outline, the current findings provide support for the view that performance efficiency, as indexed by accuracy and speed, is an important dimension of mental ability (Deary, 2000).…”

“…Reviews of IT studies indicate a consistent and remarkably high relation (i.e., r = − .50) linking HA and shorter target stimulus exposure times (Bates & Eysenck, 1993;Kranzler & Jensen, 1989;Nettlebeck, 1987). Although most of the work on IT was in the visual modality, there are several studies employing backward masking procedures that demonstrated comparable effects with auditory discrimination tasks (Bates, 2005;Raz & Willerman, 1985;Raz, Willerman, Ingmundson, & Hanlon, 1983). In the Raz et al work, the frequency and duration of the stimulus is held constant and the ITI is varied.…”

“…Among the different sensory modalities, the links between vision, audition and intelligence have been studied most often. At present, there are data documenting significant associations between intellectual functioning and basic indices of auditory and visual information processing, such as sensory speed (e.g., Deary, 1993;Deary, Caryl, Egan, & Wright, 1989;Deary, Head ,& Egan, 1989;Nettelbeck & Young, 1990;Raz & Willerman, 1985;Raz, Willerman, Ingmundson, & Hanlon, 1983), sensory discrimination (Irwin, 1984;Lynn, Wilson, & Gault, 1989;Raz, Moberg, & Millman, 1990;Raz, Willerman, & Yama, 1987;Watson, 1991) and sensory acuity (e.g., BaRes & Lindenberger, 1997;Lindenberger & Baltes, 1994;Salthouse, Hancock, Meinz, & Hambrick, 1996;Granick, Kleban, & Weiss, 1976). There is also some evidence for an increasingly strong connection between sensory and cognitive functioning as people age.…”

Since the 1970s there has been an reemerging interest in Galton's (1883) senses-intelligence hypothesis. The essence of this hypothesis is the conceptual link between fine-tuned sensory functioning and superior intellectual ability. Several studies have investigated the sensory-cognitive link within auditory and visual modalities. In this study, the intersystemic relationship between sensory and cognitive functioning was extended to the tactile modality by examining the associations between three measures of tactile information processing and intelligence in a heterogeneous sample of middle-aged adults (N = 179; age range = 30-51). Two of the three tactile tasks measured discrimination ability (i.e., roughness discrimination and part-whole matching), whereas the third task measured tactile pressure sensitivity. Results from a series of analyses indicate that sensory measures from the tactile morality are at least as highly correlated with intellectual ability (r = .18 to .33) as measures of auditory (r =. 15) or visual (r = .20) acuity. All together, the three tactile measures accounted for 20.8% of the total variance in intelligence. The two tactile discrimination measures were found to be better predictors of intelligence than measures of simple sensory acuity.Galton (1883) proposed a potential association between intellectual ability and "the avenues of the senses". His original argument was that the more perceptive the senses are of differences, the wider the field upon which an individual's judgment and intelligence can Direct all correspondence to:
