>You can tell that because remember the first study I, I mentioned where I said Jews were only 1 percent smarter, right? On average, when you considered all of the [00:14:00] information. So what that meant. If you were going to get a like a standard deviation higher, that meant on some tests they had to be scoring unusually good.
>Yeah. And on some tests they had to be scoring unusually poorly. Yeah. They were scoring unusually poorly on the nonverbal reasoning test. Yeah, so in other words, Jews appear to be word cells and not shape rotators in internet parlance of like three years ago. But anyway, so this guy then comes in, right?
>It doesn't exactly break down into words, because for example, they do better on math, but then they're bad on so it's a little complicated. But the point being is that they're, they're appears to be some areas in which Jews excel and some areas in which Jews do uniquely poorly. Yeah. So then this guy comes in and he's basically like, I can't believe that there are some areas where Jews do uniquely well and some areas where Jews do uniquely poorly.
>So how about we just look at the areas where they do well? Yeah, let's do, redo the battery. But only include the test where I know from the [00:15:00] previous data that they're doing well. Problem solved, Malcolm. Problem solved. Of course you came up with him appearing about a standard deviation higher than I do.
>Eureka! So, so that's what he was doing. So for people who haven't fully worked this all out in your head as to how he manipulated the data. And it's, it's like really obvious when you look at it, but we'll get into this more as you keep reading. Right. You, you write in the book, if Lin's goal was to truly prove the claim that Jews do actually have a higher general IQ, he would have focused on the nonverbal reasoning facets of intelligence investigated by Backman in 1972, where Jews were deficient, not where they had an advantage.
