Stern’s rubber-band hypothesis helps explain the relationship between inherited and environmental factors in determining intelligence.

According to him, the genetic endowment for any trait can be compared to a rubber band and when the rubber band is stretched by environmental forces, the length of rubber band is referred to the trait itself.
