I have not yet read of any means of actually measuring g , has anyone here got any references?

There's no way to "actually measure g", because g has no operational definition beyond statistical analyses of IQ.

There have been some attempts to link calculated g with neural transmission speeds and how easily brains can cope with given problems, but there's been little success.
