Theorists have invoked comparative intelligence studies as an arena for testing a'grand theory of intelligence/Current grand theories of intelligence fall down against comparative analysis. Based on insights from comparative intelligence studies, this paper proposes to 1) identify key problems that have plagued the search for a theory of intelligence 2) reassess the role of comparative intelligence in testing or constructing a theory of intelligence and 3) offer observations to guide intelligence theorists in an era of transition. Ultimately, this paper seeks to join the comparatist and the theorist in their mutual (albeit often competing) aspiration to understand intelligence.
