The children were tested at 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 12, and 16 years of age using standard intelligence tests. Results show that the adopted children resembled their adoptive parents slightly in early childhood but not at all in middle childhood or adolescence. In contrast, during childhood and adolescence adopted children become more like their biological parents, and to the same degree as children and parents in control families. Although these results were found for other specific cognitive abilities such as spatial ability, speed of processing, and recognition memory. These findings indicate that, within this population, genes that affect cognitive abilities in adulthood do not all come into play until adolescence and that environmental factors that contribute to cognitive development are not correlated with parents\u2019 cognitive ability.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Below is the adapted abstract of a published research paper.
