Infant Intelligence
IQ tests at an early age can not accurately predict the IQ that an infant
will have later in life.
Adolescent Intelligence
The ability for an adolescent is also greatly increased over this time.
Executive Functioning
Intellectual disabilities can show them self at this age and effect
executive functions. Things like ADHD and dyslexia directly affects
ones ability to use their executive functions.
Adult Intelligence
Numeric ability and perceptual speed decline the most the older you
become while things like verbal ability and memory decline the least
amount.
Not many intellectual disabilities will develop at this time since the
brain has finished developing. Any problems will arise from emotional
or physical trauma.
