The below table contains the collected personal and personality details of test candidates and their correlations with high-range I.Q. test scores. In the fourth column is the weighted average of that correlate's correlations. The correlates are ranked by the absolute values of their average correlations. One may take the square root of this average as an estimation of the correlate's g loading, to be understood as the actual correlation of that correlate with general intelligence. The average correlation as such is an underestimation of the true correlation as a result of the error component in the test scores.
For better understanding, one should realize that, a priori, there is no reason whatsoever why these correlations should deviate significantly from zero, and that for high-range I.Q. tests themselves, this value — that is, the weighted average of the test's correlations with other high-range I.Q. tests — is mostly around .5 or higher.
