    Question

    The leading neuroscience theories of intelligence is called:

    A.

    Parieto-Frontal interpolated theory

    B.

    Frontal-Occipital integration theory

    C.

    Parieto-Frontal integration theory

    D.

    Frontal-Parietal symbolic theory

    Correct option is C

    • Jung and Haier (2007) proposed the Parieto-Frontal Integration Theory (P-FIT) to explain intelligence through brain network connectivity rather than isolated brain regions.

    Information Booster: How P-FIT Relates to Intelligence?

    • Brain imaging studies (fMRI, PET scans) confirm that higher intelligence results from stronger frontal-parietal connections.
    • P-FIT explains individual differences in cognitive abilities, such as reasoning and problem-solving.
    • Both genetic and environmental factors influence intelligence by shaping neural efficiency.

    Key Aspects of P-FIT:

    ·         Frontal Lobes process problem-solving, decision-making, and working memory.

    ·         Parietal Lobes handle sensory input, spatial reasoning, and numerical ability.

    ·         Efficient Neural Connectivity enhances intelligence by strengthening communication between brain regions.

    ·         Integration of Information allows the brain to process, connect, and refine data across multiple regions for complex cognition.
