Feel free to post iq test results here anytime if you feel that confident.


IQ tests aren't very reliable. See my post #28.

So your feelings are the only valid measure of intelligence?

The heritability estimates for IQ are pretty bad last I checked. If your references are from before ~2015 you can more or less throw them out. After that I'm not sure, but before 2015 when I did my lasts deep dive they were basically garbage.

Interesting point.

So what, to you, would be a valid measure of intelligence?

i wonder how some of pards members feel about there being black people with phds and shit

does the fact that the race you so despise is literally no different than your own despite the skin color difference enrage you that much, whitey?

It is interesting that she infers that black people may be getting better at taking tests to explain the iq gap closing.. those same tests we have been taking for a hundred years.

So? That doesn't mean anything.

It wasn't until recently that white liberals started to really focus on helping black people do better on IQ tests, for ideological reasons (they want to prove the racists wrong). If left on their own, black people probably have little motivation to want to do well on these tests.
