Relevance of education and intelligence at the national level for the economic welfare of people (2008, background): “Hanushek and Kimko (2000), Jones and Schneider (2006), Ram (2007), Weede and Kämpf (2002), Weede (2006) and Whetzel and McDaniel (2006) showed that correlations of cognitive ability with national wealth and economic growth persist in regression models controlling for other plausible macro-social…”
Are smarter groups more cooperative? Evidence from prisoner's dilemma experiments, 1959–2003 (2008, background): “Jones and Schneider (2006) survey the literature on how intelligence can be improved through better nutrition, healthier environments, and better education in the world's poorest countries.”
Are Any Growth Theories Robust (2008, background): “…growth variables which are associated with 7 broad growth theories: neoclassical growth theory (Mankiw et al. 1992; Solow, 1956), demography/health (Shastry and Weil, 2003; Weil, 2005), macroeconomic policy (Barro, 1996), religion (Barro and McCleary, 2003; Durlauf et al. 2006), geography (Sachs,…”
Intelligence and corruption (2012, methodology): “The direct positive effect of intelligence on economic growth (Jones and Schneider, 2006; Weede and Kämpf, 2002) is thus accompanied by an indirect effect working through the reduction of corruption.”
A systematic literature review of the average IQ of sub-Saharan Africans (2010, unknown): “…(2002, 2006) estimates of national IQ have featured in over twenty scientific studies (Barber, 2005; Dickerson, 2006; Gelade, 2008a,b; Jones & Schneider, 2006; Kanazawa, 2006, 2008; Kirkcaldy, Furnham, & Siefen, 2004; Lynn, Harvey, & Nyborg, 2009; Meisenberg, 2004; Morse, 2006; Ram, 2007;…”
Raven’s test performance of sub-Saharan Africans: average performance, psychometric properties, and the Flynn Effect (2010, unknown): “…an estimate of the average IQ of nations' inhabitants) have been used in at least twenty-five scientific studies (e.g., Barber, 2005; Dickerson, 2006; Gelade, 2008a,b; Jones & Schneider, 2006; Kanazawa, 2006, 2008; Ram, 2007; Rindermann, 2007, 2008a,b; Templer, 2008; Templer & Arikawa, 2006).”

The Assessment of 21st Century Skills in Industrial and Organizational Psychology: Complex and Collaborative Problem Solving (2015, background): “Furthermore, the constructs are also used as prominent and established markers to assess, analyze, and address HC issues on an individual level (e.g., Barrick &Mount, 1991; Hogan & Holland, 2003; Jones & Schneider, 2006; Seibert & Kraimer, 2001; Weede & Kämpf, 2002).”
Weighted‐Average Least Squares (WALS): A Survey (2016, methodology): “Finally, Schomaker et al. (2010) examined the properties of various FMA estimators in the presence of missing data and Kuersteiner and Okui (2010) used the MMA estimator of Hansen (2007) to construct optimal instruments in the context of linear models with endogenous regressors.”
