Individual differences in phonological awareness are determined by early pre-school linguistic experiences (e.g. exposure to reading, nursery rhymes, etc.) and one’s genetic endowment. However, phonological awareness is independent of intelligence! A person may be highly intelligent and still lacking in phonological awareness.
