Behavioral Style

Two junior high school English teachers estimated the intelligence and behavioral style of their 87 seventh-grade students. Teachers' estimates of pupils' intelligence correlated highly (.94) with measured intelligence. The correlation between behavioral style and measured intelligence was also high and positive (.62). The results were discrepant with those of previous research. Alternative explanations of the differences are discussed. It is concluded that the relation between behavioral style and measured intelligence is a result of a developmental interaction between the child's temperamental characteristics and the environment.
