Understanding How Family Socioeconomic Status Mediates the Maternal Intelligence-Child Cognitive Outcomes Relationship: A Moderated Mediation Analysis Biodemography and Social Biology 59,2 (2013): 157-177.

Results reveal that the mediating impact of SES on the maternal intelligence–child cognitive outcomes relationship varies as a function of the level of maternal intelligence. The positive effect of higher SES on children's academic ability decreases as the cognitive ability of mothers increases, such that children in low IQ households benefit most from higher SES, while children in high IQ households benefit somewhat less. |
