	Raymond Cattell - Psychology Wiki - A Wikia wiki
		Raymond Bernard Cattell (20 March, 1905 - 2 February, 1998) was a British and American psychologist who theorized the existence of fluid and crystallized intelligences to explain human cognitive ability.
		In keeping with his devotion to rigorous scientific method, Cattell was an early proponent of the application in psychology of factor analytical methods, in place of what he called mere "verbal theorizing." One of the most important results of Cattell's application of factor analysis was the derivation of 16 factors underlying human personality.
		Cattell was also criticized by Rutgers professor William H. "Bill" Tucker, a friend and associate of Mehler's to whom Mehler "generously opened both his files and his home".

	Human Intelligence: Raymond B. Cattell
		Raymond Bernard Cattell’s substantial contributions to psychology fall into three areas: He is credited with developing an influential theory of personality, creating new methods for statistical analysis, and developing the theory of fluid and crystallized intelligence, which was later elaborated by his most renowned student, John Horn.
		Raymond Cattell held a hereditarian view of intelligence, arguing that the weight of the statistical evidence supports the idea that intelligence is largely determined by genetics.
		Cattell responded with an open letter the American Psychological Association (APA), asserting that some of the offending statements had been made when he was a young man in the 1930s, and that he had amended them in later years.

	Raymond Bernard Cattell - R. B. Cattell - Raymond Cattell
		Cattell long lamented that this sector of mathematics, which is standard fare for mathematicians, physicists, chemists, and biologists, is considered by psychology students and textbook publishers, not to mention some psychology department education directors as recondite, demanding, disciplined, but optional and less titillating than the “humanistic” theories of behavior.
		Cattell observes that it would be a useful study of scientific ideas themselves to cover the absorption, criticism, modification, and sheer unawareness that have met the mathematical model concepts, trait measures, and applied diagnostic work arising from his laboratory.
		Cattell conjectured that the solution may be the breakaway from what may continue to be called, “psychology of, on the one hand, psychonomic and multivariate experimentalist societies, united in scientific objectivity if not in ancestry, and, on the other hand, of so-called humanistic psychology.

	Raymond B. Cattell and the Fourth Inquisition
		Cattell first outlined his `evolutionary ethic' based on natural selection in Psychology and Social Progress (1933), and that "Cattell's first monograph on the topic was, A New Morality from Science: Beyondism (Cattell, 1972), followed by Beyondism: Religion from Science" (Cattell, 1987).
		Cattell is guilty of being a scientist with an interest in the causes of individual differences.
		Cattell is only guilty of advocating a version of secular humanism incorporating aspects of morality and ethics that would be informed by knowledge from modern science.

	The Racist Past of the American Psychology Establishment (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		First, throughout his life Cattell adhered to a claim common in the first quarter of the twentieth century — that the biological union of individuals from different racial backgrounds would produce genetic disharmonies in the offspring.
		However, for Cattell, the most important reason for rigid segregation was his view of race as the unit of evolutionary progress.
		Thus, the Cattell controversy leaves the puzzling question of why the postponement of his award elicited such outrage when the case for doing so was so compelling.

	INTERVIEW WITH RAYMOND B. CATTELL
		CATTELL: I agree with Carl Bajema's suggestions in the Fall '83 issue--the only way to progress is to enter political controversies, to set up programs for research in the area, to support the Eugenics Special Interest Group, and in general to stir up people's thinking by critical observations.
		CATTELL: I agree that the only reasonable thing is to be noncommittal on the race question--that's not the central issue, and it would be a great mistake to be sidetracked into all the emotional upsets that go on in discussions of racial differences.
		CATTELL: One might suppose that all one had to do to overcome this opposition was to point to striking research in behavior genetics.

	Cattell's Sixteen Personality Factor Model
		Cattell's scholarly training began at an early age when he was awarded admission to King's College at Cambridge University where he graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry in 1926 (Lamb, 1997).
		Cattell and colleagues responded to the critics by maintaining the stance that the reason the studies were not successful at replicating the primary structure of the 16 Personality Factor model was because the studies were not conducted according to Cattell's methodology.
		Cattell's 35 clusters of personality traits were further limited by Fiske, who used a subset of only 22 clusters and ran a factor analysis.

	SparkNotes: Personality Traits: Cattell, Eysenck, and the Big Five
		In this section, we discuss two of the founding figures in trait theory, Raymond Cattell and Hans Eysenck, both of whom conducted their seminal research in the 1940's and 1950's.
		Using this method, Cattell came up with a list of sixteen factors of personality (each a continuum from one extreme to the other), and developed a questionnaire that could be used to measure each of these factors in an individual or a group.
		Since Cattell and Eysenck, many researchers have conducted many studies to determine whether there are sixteen traits, as Cattell argued, or two, as Eysenck argued, or whether the truth is somewhere in between.

	Fluid and crystallized intelligence - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In psychometrics, fluid and crystallized intelligence (abbreviated gf and gc, respectively) are factors of intelligence test scores originally identified by Spearman as eductive and reproductive ability and subsequently misleadingly re-named by Raymond Cattell.
		For instance, the known fact of IQ decline in seniors at age 50 and higher (Schaie 1983; Hertzog and Schaie) may be attributed to decline in Gf but not in Gc.
		One endeavor, the creation of the Cattell Culture Fair IQ test attempted to quantify the concept of fluid intelligence which in some ways resembles the Raven Progressive Matrices which was based directly on Spearman's work.
