  2. The g Factor: The Science of Mental Ability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_g_Factor:_The_Science...

    The book argues that the g factor shows considerable practical validity. It is related to a large number of economically, educationally, and socially valued attributes. It is a particularly good predictor of academic and job-related outcomes. [2] It stresses the difference between g and what it calls vehicles of g.

  3. g factor (psychometrics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G_factor_(psychometrics)

    The g factor [a] is a construct developed in psychometric investigations of cognitive abilities and human intelligence.It is a variable that summarizes positive correlations among different cognitive tasks, reflecting the assertion that an individual's performance on one type of cognitive task tends to be comparable to that person's performance on other kinds of cognitive tasks.

    where F is the gravitational force acting between two objects, m 1 and m 2 are the masses of the objects, r is the distance between the centers of their masses, and G is the gravitational constant. The first test of Newton's law of gravitation between masses in the laboratory was the Cavendish experiment conducted by the British scientist Henry ...

  5. g-factor (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-factor_(physics)

    The spin magnetic moment of a charged, spin-1/2 particle that does not possess any internal structure (a Dirac particle) is given by [1] =, where μ is the spin magnetic moment of the particle, g is the g-factor of the particle, e is the elementary charge, m is the mass of the particle, and S is the spin angular momentum of the particle (with magnitude ħ/2 for Dirac particles).

  6. Gravitational constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_constant

    It is also known as the universal gravitational constant, the Newtonian constant of gravitation, or the Cavendish gravitational constant, [a] denoted by the capital letter G. In Newton's law, it is the proportionality constant connecting the gravitational force between two bodies with the product of their masses and the inverse square of their ...

  7. Generalizability theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generalizability_theory

    Generalizability theory, or G theory, is a statistical framework for conceptualizing, investigating, and designing reliable observations. It is used to determine the reliability (i.e., reproducibility) of measurements under specific conditions. It is particularly useful for assessing the reliability of performance assessments.
