[Xmca-l] Luria's Research and Flynn Effect

[Sungwoo Kim]

I would like to share a talk, where the speaker connects the Flynn Effect
with the increase and complexification in sociocultural and scientific
categories,
which have led us to use more classification systems, hypotheticals,
and syllogisms. This would not be a news to the community, but it was
interesting to me to see James Flynn citing Luria's research in Central
Asia as the major mechanism for explaining his own theory.

(Sorry for a possible double post of the talk.)
