Intelligence research may seem a lonely career choice. The public understanding of intelligence has fallen so far that all and sundry have a gut-full of disparagement to offer, and not much in the way of reasoned evidence.
Indeed, the capacity of fools to regard themselves as founts of wisdom was well studied by one of the four I will discuss below.
In a very refreshing change, four intelligence researchers have been singled out for honours. The American Psychological Association has listed the following in their Rising Stars of 2015
BAILEY, DREW H.
University of California, Irvine
Bailey studies the contributions of domain-general cognitive abilities and children’s specific mathematical skills to children’s mathematical development.

RITCHIE, STUART J.
University of Edinburgh
Ritchie's research contributes significantly to the understanding of the causes of cognitive differences and their real-life impacts.

VON STUMM, SOPHIE
Goldsmiths College, University of London
Von Stumm innovates assessment methods in the behavioral sciences and produces original knowledge on life-span cognitive development.
WOODLEY OF MENIE, MICHAEL
Vrije Universiteit, Brussels
Woodley of Menie developed the best-supported theory in explaining positive and negative Flynn effects.
So, three out of the four rising stars had already been featured in “Psychological Comments” and I will repair my apparent omission of Drew Bailey as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, use their names in the search bar and the many mentions of their work will pop up for you to read.
The one who looked at people’s judgements about their own intelligence?

In terms of Tetlock’s superforecasters, on the narrow front of upcoming intelligence researchers I proudly claim a 75% success rate. (Long discursive meditations about predictive accuracy metrics to follow in due course).
