For over a century, scientists have sought to uncover the neurological correlates of intelligence. With recent advancements in neuroimaging technology, neuroscientists have been converging upon the neurological correlates of intelligence. This review compiles the most current and relevant evidence, from all perspectives, concerning the manifestation of intelligence in the brain. A network-based approach to intelligence was utilized during this review, relying on the flexible interactions between the intrinsic connectivity networks to explain intelligence. Indeed, the brain's most important intrinsic connectivity networks were the frontoparietal control network and the cingulo-opercular network, the brain's two control networks. The review begins with understanding the neural correlates of intelligence task processing and intelligence differences. Then, the final section of this review reveals the two most important threads connecting the various perspectives on intelligence: neural networks and neural flexibility. Through these threads, this review attempts to identify the neurological core of intelligence, opening the door for convergence upon a holistic approach to intelligence in the near future.
