>low IQ matters, but actually there's no difference between average IQ and high IQ, look at this data of car crash risk by IQ

Ok but for most things there's both a difference between low IQ and average IQ, and between average IQ and high IQ

For example high IQ perdicts better outcomes occupation, job performance , academic performance
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G_factor_(psychometrics)#Practical_validity
And does so better than any other psychological factor
IQ predicts upward economic mobility, for example it explains all of the black-white gap in upward economic mobility, i.e. a poor black kid is as likely to improve his socioeconomic class as a poor white kid as long as they both have the same IQ (btw exactly the opposite of what you would expect to observe if the differences in black and white outcomes are due to black people being treated unfairly which makes it more difficult for them to succeed than a white person of the same ability)
https://www.pew.org/~/media/legacy/uploadedfiles/pcs_assets/2012/empreportsupward20intergen20mobility2008530pdf.pdf-%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B%E2%80%8B page 30, figure 13

Even within high IQ people, being very high IQ predicts better outcomes
For example in the SMPY study of mathematically precocious youth, they looked at a cohort of children in the top 1% of mathematics ability, and even within that 1 % the children in the top quarter of that 1% had substantially better life outcomes than the children at the bottom of that top 1%

You are now going to get the cosmologist treatment.
What scientific experiment was performed to confirm the statement that IQ is explained through other significant factors?
Can you name a single one of those factors and trace down the confirmation? You see any sociological factor is immediately untestable. You can't control any variable. So your ilk turn to the hope that noise is cancelled out through sufficient sample sizes, but IQ is already a population level phenomenon. By disconfirming IQ you demonstrate the approach is not universally valid so now you need some extended argument.
What is the form of that argument?

I hope you aren't the same retard, because it is embarrassing for someone who pretended to be so confident to not know this.
IQ effect is correlative, a statistical phenomenon. If you were to sample the population, the higher IQ individuals would have a higher probability of hitting more successful rates. Equally supportive, and even more so because of the nature of the current methodologies, low IQs get terrible results because they are retarded.

Success is tied to the metric at hand. If its income, an individual in the higher IQ group is more likely to have higher income. If its academic performance, he would be more likely to get higher grades.
Professions are not exactly a valid metric for better or worse without getting circular, but there is tendency for higher IQ individuals to wind up in certain fields. They even end up on different basketweaving forums.
If you don't like the word success because it is biased against you, then you can think of it in the paradigm of privilege, like the rest of the left hand of the curve.

Well, that's just obviously wrong since the person with the highest income (probably elon musk) is obviously not the person with the highest iq. Same for high grades. It sounds like you've learnt to repeat a few religious slogans about the validity of iq without putting much thought into what you're saying. Learn to use your brain better please.

You don't even know how to read. A population level phenomenon is not determined by a single measurement of a particular individual. The existence of someone outside of a statistical norm is expected, nobody has 2.5 children of course - unless you count siamese some kind of special way.

Let's help you think through this one.
Consider an individual with an iq higher than elon musk. What is the probability that their income is higher than the income of elon musk, an individual with lower iq? Now think about how this contradicts your statement that "an individual in the higher IQ group is more likely to have higher income"
Anonymous No.16705696 >>16705697

What is Musk's IQ? How many people are at that IQ? What is the average of the income at that IQ? What is the average income of people higher than that IQ? I am assuming you have all of these details.
Income isn't the term you want to use anyways, because there is tax gamification at play and his accumulated wealth is far beyond the income figures - but then many people are born into wealth which also works to nullify a particular effect.
You really shouldn't be pressing this point. You are looking less and less privileged.

Did I bring up Musk?
No, that was you. Also, I rebutted the general claim and you are still trying the particular. As for people with the same IQ as Musk, as far as I am aware IQ is still on a per point basis, so the resolution of equals is pretty good unless Musk is in what? 5-ish sigma?* And that is accepting IQ testing discussed here is valid out that far.

*Chance of elon musk having non-negligible effect on IQ ranking where per population basis is low enough that he is skewing the curve. I am guessing that $1000 deviation is within norm while somewhere between $10k and $100k is the cutoff line. 1 in 10^5 in a population group that is approximately 70000 and averaged out puts Musk income of say 1 billion, resulting in a skew of ~15k. While over some sufficient sample size would put this line at 6 SD.

It's not about standard deviations. iq is by definition a ranking system and musk would have a particular unique rank in the system. It's not surprising that iq worshippers like you don't know this, because you were probably pulled into the cult by pictures of bell curves which are a propaganda tool to fool gullible morons into thinking that iq has some real empirical basis.

poorly veiled race baiting thread
IQ tests and tests like the ACT/SAT reflect differing cultural than pure knowledge. Besides, is this guy citing any particular studies or is he just talking, we don't know so why would we just assume what he's saying is correct? One reason is reference to authority, but even leading minds of a time can be wrong about many things. Possibly also because it supports a world view some of you already have and many of you already have a perception smeared with racism so that is understandable. Every person on earth is capable of the same kind of cognizance and understanding/computing the same stuff. Saying otherwise is demonstrably wrong.

Don't say that. It can't conceptually rank anything without some manifestation. There are some IQ tests that are ranked, but the most common forms do not. The tests:
1. don't specifically rank what they measure most effectively, the scores are densely packed;
2. aren't capable of effectively measuring the top ranks; and
3. as a population level phenomenon, such ranks wouldn't make sense in the first place.

Neuroscientists find that the brain and human consciousness still contains many mysteries. Human development is also a factor. How can a student even take an IQ test without access to education?

For these two reasons, the limitation or our understanding of the human mind and the environmental factors at work, IQ is not a definitive measure of intelligence.

Does it provide some insight into human intelligence? Sure. Is the comprehensive measure of intelligence? I don't think so. There are many statistical outliers and colonialism has a role in human development.

Access to education, the quality of this education, nutrition, many other environmental factors are at work.

The controversial political question is whether intelligence is determined by genetics or by the environment, by nurture or nature.

Perhaps both, perhaps not, we simply do not understand the mind well enough at this point. Through the application of fields like machine learning and neuroevolution, we may even be able to develop an artificial superintelligence beyond the capabilities of any human being.

well it depends but it's like 10,000% bullshit. like, it couldn't be more wrong kind of bullshit. the connection between biology and behavior is really complicated and hazy but entirely undeniable, and there's certainly path-sensitive feedback (e.g. environment) that shapes development, but by and large the paths that exist depend 100% on biology (and obviously, too, it's crazy this is even a debate)

the "it depends" is mostly just what exactly you mean by tabula rasa. if you trained everyone to control their mind to the degree a 40 year old buddhist monk could, then people are a tabula rasa since neural connections are modifiable, but that obviously requires a kind of institutional rigidity that is tyrannical

If you are working with large groups then it greatly affects the ease with which you can optimally distribute scarce resources.
Maybe you can distinguish below 85 from above 115 without difficulty but 70% of the population are in that gap. How would you select candidates for a degree programme or filter job applicants?

An interview? It's really not hard to tell if someone's more or less competent. I'd even go so far as to bet that if you gave me a pool of 100 people to pick 5 from, all in the 85-115 range, without telling me the IQs, my best interview tranche would outperform the 5 highest IQs (if they were different).

From what I recall IQ tests were employed to profile undifferentiated applicants such as military drafts. They allowed rough categorisations since they correlated well enough with task fitness, recursion and abstraction apparently have iq thresholds below which they're either impossible or much more challenging.
They aren't a perfect tool but various forms have been developed that provide an analysis of various cognitive tasks, with the more intense involving such tools as reaction boards. While there is a degree of task specialisation the evidence supports a general factor or G factor those who are good at one task also tend to excel at another dissimilar task (I think the original term was spearman's general factor of cognitive discrimination).
IQ tests are perhaps one of the best tests devised to try and estimate G, obviously a single number is much too simplistic to qualify your ability at a specific task but that would be where more specialised tests are best applied.
Although you can practice IQ tests to bump your scores higher there's a limit to your ability to raise your iq score and the results aren't persistent over time. Also the trainability of certain test components is variable with those more g loaded subtests being far harder to raise (for a wider issue with that see the problem of the so called Fllynn/Lynn effect).
Sorry for the digression I can't put what I wish to say into clear enough words.
If I you'll forgive me I can suggest a metaphor: It's like asking what's the value in measuring peoples' heights systematically when you can clearly see who's taller by looking at them. This numerical data might be more relevant to some than others such as clothing manufacturers, who will also require more detailed measures of body size and shape to meet their market demands.

The confusion here, possibly introduced by the height metaphor is that IQ results are relational, following approximately a bell curve distribution.

A 102 is not some objective measure like you would get from a measuring someone's height with a tape. It's a sampling distribution where just over half of people in the population sampled are going to be less brainy. This leads to an inherent fuzziness but.
More objective figures can be found in tests such as colour differentiation or reaction speed, and because they're more objective they produce distributions similarly to height.
Their purpose as I think has been stated before is to assess the potential of large groups, your fixation on face to face interviews seems to be intentionally ignoring the value of standardised tests. I find this stubbornness intentionally frustrating as if you are conveniently ignoring the very large polkadot elephant in the room.

It's simutaniously true that the average IQ of races vary and that racism is a low IQ trait.
Variance within a race is greater than between races. Every other white person is a drooling <100 IQ moron which is why most intelligent people aren't loyal to their race. Operating at the level of race only benefits the lower half of races. If we can determine the genetic intelligence potential of individuals then we should work at the level of individuals instead of clinging to categories based on 18th century understanding of genetics.

Christians reject the religion of evolutionism because it's pants-on-head retarded, never been proven with the scientific method, and contradicts God's Word. It's not just the Bible, it's the Bible and what we see in the real world. Your dishonesty is simply par for the course when it comes to you low IQ evolutioncultists, but also shows the utter ignorance of the debate, data, and arguments around the issue and it's a willing ignorance on your part.

You're just in denial about this religion of yours because it's state-funded and taught in "science" classes, but you were never bright enough to question it; or rather, you love to believe the lie since it lets you live your current lifestyle. Your entire faith system would collapse and die if not for state-funded indoctrination, which is why you cultists refuse to admit you have to believe in the big bang (violates laws of science), life from nonlife (violates laws of science), and evolutionism of kinds (never observed or proven with the scientific method) with a leap of faith in spite of science.

>>16713317
The Bible teaches God created after their kind, which is what science actually supports, there being different kinds that can only ever create after their kind even if there are variations within a kind, they never become a new kind.

It's why evolutionist evangelists will so adamantly refuse to use the term "kind" since they can only point to variations within a kind and they claim that proves life from a common ancestors and that bananas are our cousins and monkeys and fish are our ancestors; it's a massive leap of blind faith in spite of all the science we actually see, and it shows a failing to understand basic logic and burden of proof that so many of them so readily believe such a deception. Evolutionists are low IQ but think they're smart b/c they were told smart people believe.

I kind of understand what you're implying with evolution/materialism (though I am not a materialist yet believe in evolution).
The communism part is backwards though. Communism assumes materialism, true, but it's not its only assumption (the most important assumption of leftism is blank slatism/equality), and one can certainly believe in a purely material universe without being a communist.

What kind of proof do you require? It is about as "proven" as science can ever prove anything. You're proving my point: you claim it hasn't been proven, you say it's retarded but provide no proof and it's obvious that the thing that's really causing you to oppose evolution so vehemently is the Bible part. The vitriol in your post is yet more evidence for this.

>You're just in denial about this religion of yours because it's state-funded and taught in "science" classes, but you were never bright enough to question it; or rather, you love to believe the lie since it lets you live your current lifestyle.
What is my "lifestyle"? What do you know about me, an anonymous user of this Zimbabwean mudhut building forum? I used to be a fundamentalist Christian myself (so I have, in fact, questioned the theory of evolution) but realized that God doesn't seem to be answering my prayers and that I could find a lot of the same thought patterns in fundamentalist Christians as I did in rabid leftoids: both convinced that they're right, it's just that pesky things like "science", "reality" or "people who disagree" get in the way. My belief in evolution is not religious, I don't feel offended or hurt by you not believing it, I just think it's silly, somewhat like flat earthers. Speaking of which, they use a lot of the same arguments as you do, with a lot of the same fervor.

Slavery was abolished for good like 900 years ago and anyone claiming there are still racists today or that there exists any system let alone systems that disenfranchise some to the betterment of others is just being a nasty SJW.

Accomplishments, especially academic ones, highly correlate with intelligence and are in an of themselves intelligence tests.
Intelligence is so easy to measure that almost everything that can be connected to a person can be used to measure their intelligence because intelligence correlates so heavily with everything a human being does under the control of their brain.

you can define it as genetic clusters.

every single argument against racial IQ gaps is a denial of reality. it's never a first principles argument. it's some sort of emotional refutation that is never applied anywhere else.

you say "There isnโ€™t an empirical physical racial definition." yet you never apply the same standard to other species. I know, everyone knows you wouldn't unironically argue subspecies don't exist in other animals.

Science is in an endless cope cycle where it defangs itself because it has no defense of its premises. The evolutionary claims do not support species as categories. There is no basis for an intransient form. Your ancestors was a banana. Yes, they belive this.
The mundane materialistic assumptions also offer no grounding for somiotics. Everything is a just tiny particles bumping and farting, because of this all claims fundamentally lack truth value and meaning. What is a woman? Why bother with someone that cant answer such a basic question.
If this wasn't enough, they wretch over in a corner about science as useful but then their reddit avengers do everything in their power to uphold some babble about string theory or black holes and staged moon landings. None of which has ever done anything.
It is incoherent as a whole and only exists because of government indoctrination and political skullduggery. Oh, and they dont get paid as mich as football coaches. Sad. Many such cases.

People or Human agents have instincts, and neural networks that are trained, like LLMs are trained, including by the "school of life". Sociology is the science of how those agents interact.

"As a cornerstone", Tabula Rasa is a decent approximation of that for a field like Sociology, since most Human agency is trained. LLMs are trained. They are, effectively, Tabula Rasa before being trained on a corpus.

Evenso, there are no schools of Sociology that view humans as 100% tabula rasa, not that I'm aware.

I think the main issue is that if you have an hypothetical gigabrain african tribesman called Yakub and you show him an IQ test and you tell him "solve it in under 1 hour" he will probably have no idea what the fuck it means, and maybe score 90 or lower.
Conversely, a midwit redditor who can't even distinguish casual relationships in the events of a superhero flick may score an adequeate 110 IQ.
all simply because the very concept of an IQ test is deeply rooted in contemporary western culture.

Ironically the main criticism being levied behind the word "bigot" is that you've irrationally prejudged a category of person based on your own emotions and you're unwilling to change your mind in the face of new information. Actually it's a double irony. Because not only do they emotionally conclude all races are equal in all aspects and dismiss evidence to the contrary, but they are bigoted against people who believe the facts are different or are willing to present the evidence.

It's funny because the slide doesn't say it isn't true though, it just claims you're immoral if you believe it.
