Parental estimates of their own and their relatives' intelligence. A Spanish replication

Self estimates of general, crystallized, and fluid intelligences in an ethnically diverse population

“…The Hispanic American modesty bias is consistent with past research conducted on Hispanic cultures. The mean self-estimated intelligence scores for Spanish individuals reported by both Chamorro-Premuzic, Gomà-i-Freixanet, Furnham, andMuro (2009) andPérez et al (2010), for example, are lower than most of the reported means for British participants (e.g., Furnham, 2001). Furnham and Chamorro-Premuzic (2005) found that Argentinians gave lower self-estimates than did Britons.…”

“…This finding corresponds with Furnham's work (e.g., 2001) showing that men rate themselves higher on academic-related intelligences, and such intelligences are better predictors of overall intelligence rating. Perhaps, as has been suggested, women have a more distributed notion of overall intelligence (Pérez, González, & Beltrán, 2010).…”

Gender differences in self-estimates of general, mathematical, spatial and verbal intelligence: Four meta analyses

“…This effect has replicated cross culturally with one recent study comparing twelve nations from four continents (Von Stumm, Chamorro-Premuzic, & Furnham, 2009). It is an area of research that has continued to attract attention and replication in many different countries (Furnham & Shagabutdinova, 2011;Kudrna, Furnham, & Swami, 2010;Perez, Gonsalez, & Beltran, 2010;Stieger et al, 2010;Yousefi, 2009). It relates partly to the literature on lay conceptions of intelligence (Neto, Mullett, & Furnham, 2009;Sternberg, Conway, Ketron, & Bernstein, 1981) and the question of the correspondence between the lay and scientific literature.…”

Implicit theories of intelligence in STEM education: perspectives through the lens of technology education students

“…More recently, the methodology utilised by Sternberg et al (1981) was adopted in a study where the prototypical characteristics of intelligence were framed through the theory of multiple intelligences (Gardner 1983). The aim of the study was to investigate gender differences in intelligence estimation and with results corresponding to those of other studies confirming the hypothesis that females make lower self-estimates then males (Pérez et al 2010). Finally, the prototypical paradigm of investigation has been adopted in studies which examine constructs other than those of intelligence.…”
