在一项对141名年龄在18岁至69岁之间的成年人进行研究的背景下，评估了独立学习机会前后领域知识决定因素的能力（流动智力和结晶智力）和非能力（个性、兴趣、自我概念等）。所考虑的领域知识包括一系列财务问题，包括财务规划、退休计划、债务管理和教育储蓄账户。结晶智力对学习前领域知识的预测比流体智力更强，而非能力特征对学习前领域知识的预测效度显著增加。学习后，流体智力对领域知识的预测有显著提高，但最终相关性没有超过结晶智力。讨论了优化成人教育成功预测的意义。
The ability (fluid and crystallized intelligence) and nonability (personality, interests, self-concept, etc.) determinants of domain knowledge before and after an independent learning opportunity were evaluated in the context of a study of 141 adults between the ages of 18 and 69. The domain knowledge under consideration included an array of financial issues, including financial planning, retirement planning, debt management, and educational savings accounts. Crystallized intelligence was a stronger predictor than fluid intelligence of domain knowledge prior to learning, and nonability traits provided significant incremental predictive validity. After learning, fluid intelligence showed a marked increase in the prediction of domain knowledge, but the final correlation did not exceed that of crystallized intelligence. Implications for optimizing the prediction of educational success of adults are discussed.
