>reading makes you smarter
real shit????

>>10770040
how are brainlets like you still around?
the Flynn effect peaked years ago for the most developed nations, it's basically a training effect on test taking ability,

The Woodley effect is the Flynn effect's unpleasant big brother with a baseball bat saying we ought to be stopping dysgenic selection.

>>10770044
Damn, the very first sentence in that pic is a straight up lie (so are the 2nd and 3rd). It doesn't even explain the premise properly. Stop spreading propaganda.

>>10770060
>hurr durr dysgenic selection
the point is not that actual intelligence goes up or down with time; rather, the point is that IQ tests are for sure a broken metric that don't really measure anything, it's more like a standardized test for whatever psychologist professors sitting in their offices think is real science, when in reality they are completely scientifically and statistically innumerate.

back to >>>/pol/

>>10770083
no they do measure something because they produce a consistent distribution and correlate fairly well to performance in cognitively challenging tasks.

>>10770091
It's basically BMI for your brain. It only provides correlations.

>>10770091
>consistent
except the flynn effect shows it drifts dramatically over time, like 1-2 standard deviations per generation. so whatever it is you think it measures must be changing significantly at a generational level. and for sure "innate intelligence" / "g-factor" (i.e. bullshit words psychologists made up without any scientific basis) don't drift that rapidly with time. it for sure measures some meme crap, you know like some people are real good at sudoku but that doesn't mean they aren't fucking retarded at real life

zomg 53 minutes? tl;dr?

i skipped through and most of what i found was about "muh sex differences" and not what i was expecting for this thread (flynn effect/bell curve 'muh racial IQ' shit)

Flynn effect is dead and was built on sketchy understanding of IQ anyway

>>10770156
sauce? do you have a source for that? sources? you still have not provided a source. i am still waiting for a source? do you have a source?

>>10770153
yeah sorry wrong link, didn't copy properly.

>>10770168
and you don't post the correct link, to amend your fucked up post? are you drunk or something?

>another IQ thread

why is science so controversial if there is no link between race, income, gender and IQ then why should there be a problem with validating that hypothesis. some people say race is pseudoscience if thats true than research should reflect that.

It seems like all the remaining scientists who would dare to research this sacred area, are being hunted down by SJW "scientists". even nobel laureates like Francis crick aren't safe from these, lunatics who want to disrupt the scientific process.

>>10770223

Because people are afraid that it would justify discriminatory policies or other aspects.

Because normies can't differentiate in their heads between X and Y are not the same with X and Y both have the same rights.

Because most normies would gladly use any deficiency on your part to subjugate you and the only thing stopping them is either a rifle in your hands telling them to fuck off, or the sheer lack of concentrated political power to enforce it.

>>10770238
Most normies can’t even watch a science documentary without sleeping, how would they be able to read just 5 articles from Richard Lynn?

The whole idea is that scientists and other academics will leave earth and build a colony on the moon.

>>10770256
I got really high right now see you tomorrow

>>10770256

That's just it.

They don't have to internalize any information. They can just smoke a bowl watching blue planet and repost memes from le black science man and clap becaise they kinda watched something similar one time and they totally loved it.

A normie doesn't have to read pages of the the bell curve. They can just get the cliff notes of "black people are disproportionately retarded" and the rest writes itself bases entirely on their proximity, feelings, and convenience.

>>10770223
the fact is that race and “IQ” are what humanities majors think amounts to science, but unfortunately they are objectively just memes. psychologists are crappy scientists and so are their tests. the whole thing is an exercise in how to do bad science. just disregard all psychologist shit and their /pol/ tier “results”

>>10770268
how are race and IQ memes?

Is the IQ of /sci/ the highest or the lowest on 4chan/nel?

>>10770279
neither are well defined scientifically. IQ is based on some tests that consist of questions that are basically brain teasers that psychologists saw and went “oh shit only smart guys like us can solve that” so it’s entirely subjective and/or some cultural judgement

>>10770282

Completely average, but it has the largest difference between self report and reality.

>>10770286

>muh cultural meme

IQ has been paired down to account for cultural or other differences. It is effectively pattern recognition with increasing complexity on a time scale.

>>10770295
then explain the flynn effect, einstein

>>10770040
Yes and the more you run the faster you will get. People are still people who are naturally fast runners and people who are naturally slow runners..

>>10770040
The parts of the test that the Flynn effect contributes to are the least G-loaded. Flynn himself stated this. Flynn effect is basically measuring the fact that the IQ test is imperfect. In fact, by looking at reaction times from the 1800's compared to now, G has been decreasing over time. We've been losing 2 IQ points per decade since the Victorian era, but imperfect IQ measuring has been hiding it with the Flynn effect.
See Baron Michael Woodley's paper on it

If at this stage of your reading you believe this then I'm afraid you have so much more to learn
at the very least read lynn's work or the rushto jenson paper
https://www1.udel.edu/educ/gottfredson/30years/Rushton-Jensen30years.pdf

>>10770332
can you tl;dr it for me?

i find that, usually, reading psychology papers is a complete waste of time, since they typically have no conception of science and make lots of basic statistics errors

BTW a lot of poltard trolls come here and criticize science on sort-of methodological grounds, but then they go and cite psychologists, who have infintely worse methodological standards than those of the physicists that the /pol/tards are trying to troll (god knows why)

>>10770343
the jenson & rushton paper has weathered many storms unscathed, even the charles murray bell curve data has been checked many times.
if you want a TL:DR read the abstract and skim through the rest

>>10770352
i read a few sentences and it looks like typical psychology crap. do you have an argument of your own?

>>10770361
that you don't know what you're talking about

>>10770375
maybe you “know” your psychology, but it’s bullshit. want to talk about how seratonin causes depression? or how mutilating genitalia cures your magic “gender dysphoria” syndrome? or how “attention deficit disorder” is to be treated with amphetamine?

your whole field is a meme

>>10770384
not my field but IQ is literally the most heavily data backed study they have

>>10770399
backed by “tests” consisting of brainteaser questions that a bunch of boomer psychbros free-associated in their offices like this:
“oh fuck that question is a real head scratcher, only smartguys like us could figure that out; it has like some leet hexagons, put it on the test”

>>10770413
if said tests are culturally standardised for a test group you will still get a fair distribution reflecting the G factor

>>10770413
What do you think Raven's progressive Matrices are?

>>10770435
they aren't.
and "g factor" is nonscientific. it is some hypothesized entity that exists only to exist as some unmeasurable thing that psychologists believe in despite it being in principle unmeasurable. a clear example of how psychologists are not really scientists

>>10770435
No, these things are literally just made up. Yes, we're performing measurements, but we only have a peripheral understanding of what is actually ending up measured.

>>10770446
look up neurobiological correlates g factor, genetics g factor, and neurobiology intelligence

>>10770449
>hurr durr we solved intelligence through biology and genetics
you wish. i am no bio expert or genetics expert, but i am fairly sure that anybody who says they can sequence a genome and use that to predict intelligence is a complete pseud

the physical tests that correlate strongly with IQ fascinate me
discerning sounds, hues, weights, or measuring working memory and reaction time amongst various others
these were invented and tested before IQ tests were even a thing and so pure they're unnaffected by any "Flynn effect"

>>10770456
that seems like an irrelevant argument like the genes for height

>>10770461
what are you even arguing any more?

i wish i could offer you some straws for you to grasp at bro

>>10770456
Why don’t you look at the literature suggested and think about it for a while before making strong claims from ignorance.

>>10770467
why don't you tl;dr it for me, or make an argument of your own?

or are just going to "i posted some article that i didn't read but i claim it makes me right nonetheless" like a real /pol/boss?

you could have finished reading the jenson paper by now anon

>>10770466
I was trying to draw a parallel between the multitude of genes that influence height and those that influence cognitive ability

>>10770470
because I don’t care about you lol

>>10770480
well conflating height with intelligence in the genetic sense is naiive. i am sure there are many many more (several orders of magnitude) genes that contribute to intelligence than that which contribute to height.

it’s like comparing the look of a person’s face to their shoe size

>>10770486

>The Woodley effect is the Flynn effect's unpleasant big brother with a baseball bat saying we ought to be stopping dysgenic selection.

It's most likely nutrient defficiencies - manganese, magnesium - impossible to measure its status in the body, so nobody cares about it, copper - got called toxic because a few people got mildly nauseated after drinking tea from an old copper teapot; the amounts in animal feed is limited by law because the optimal concentration of copper would make the manure contaminated with heavy metal according to the bizarre values set by law. Also too much iron, calcium and likely zinc. And whatever nutrients we do not know yet. We are getting royally fucked by our food habits.

>>10770623

>>10770627
or immigration

>>10770629
usually only drawing from exclusively native populations or elite groups

https://www.gwern.net/docs/iq/2016-dutton.pdf

seen in khartoum, brazil (if remembering correctly), iceland, norway, uk etc.

While immigrants are certainly lowering national iq the subpopulations experiencing reverse flynn effect should not be experiencing regression like this given living standards haven't dropped appreciably in the West for wealthy families (where the effect is most pronounced).

conjugal visits should be banned for all prisoners

>>10770627
>the best diets on Earth
All that applies to them as well.

>>10770674
in the studies done on these northern european populations they control for immigrants, essentially for non-whites, reverse flynn effect is happening among white european populations. It wouldn't make any sense at all if this weren't the case considering the inverted fertility of urbanized populations

fisher talked about this in the 1930's well before the phenomena had been observed in the way it has now. galton, spencer and malthus thought the exact same thing

>>10770674
I mean the issues with food apply to northern countries as well.

Especially the copper. I got a copper cup and drink from it regularly, beucause the time seems to be speeding up and I suffer lapses of perception when I don't. (I grew a habit of licking copper coins, which is how I found out)

The flynn effect is entirely caused by the fact that people started reading more. However now with the advent of video culture people read less. (i dont mean books or anything, just symbols in general)

that's right; intelligence is the one trait of mammals that isn't influenced by genetics. you can inherit a predisposition to addiction, you can inherit a predisposition to psychosis, you can inherit a predisposition to diabetes or multiple sclerosis or cancers, but intelligence is magically given out by the white privilege fairy, who also happens to hate all non-human animals

One of the questions of the study that found that racisrs have lower IQ was whether or not you believe that blacks are less intelligent.

I suppose they are looking at the iq issue from the wrong perspective.

Did you knew that pigs are labeled as smarter than dogs?

That happens because pigs sense of smell is better, iq is directly related the information processing being language smart means you are good at processing audible information that also means you are good at music apreciation.

Being visually smart means you are also good at art apreciation and so on, if they stopped with the one iq meassure to fit them all and did dedicated tests things would be a lot different.

>>10770920

While I agree the gaps aren't soley environmental it cannot be ignored that Iodine deficiency/consumption alone can equate to a -12/+8 IQ point loss or gain during prenatal/early childhood nutrition.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/m/pubmed/15734706/

It also can't be ignored that high cortisol levels brought by external stress can cause low/very low birth weight, behavior changes and lower IQ by 5 points in babies during pregnancy.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2786250/

These two factors alone can result in a 17 IQ point total loss or a 8 point gain.

>>10770920
Most of the worlds IQ will reach a point where the gap is negligible once countries start to reach a more developed state and improvements OT healthcare. Hell the (select) East Asian vs "white" gap is not even htat big.

>>10773178
and maternal and pre-natal healthcare, daycare, schools that can pick out gifted kids and provide other kids with issues like dyslexia a way to tackle their problem. Then there's the biggest issue of language.

You see in many places they love to dick suck European languages. So much that they enact linguistic polices that make no sense and lead to worse educational outcomes. In many African states they don't use native languages at all, the minute you enter school you are dropped right into English or French. With no gradual bilingual or gradual shift so those kids have to tackle topics in a language they don't know how to speak and use terms they don't know in their mother tongue. Thus you have pupils who are shit at say Swahili AND English who can't perform well in either.

>Thomas Bouchard (1979)
Studied Identital twins, same genes, but separated at birth. Most ended up in the same middle-class families, and ended up having similar IQ. In the few cases where the separated twins were put into differing social classes and education levels, there were huge disparities in IQ - in one case a 20 point gap; in another, 29 points (the difference between dullness and superior intelligence).

>Moving from individuals to populations

>Flynn Effect
IQ has changed dramatically, projecting back 100 years, yet people have not changed genetically since then. Some populations are more exposed to abstract logic than others, which is why their average IQ scores differ. Thus any difference was environmental.

Among Kenyan children, a rise of 26.3 points in 14 years between 1984 and 1998 due to nutrition, health, and parental literacy improvements.

>Ashkenazi Jews super-intelligence
>They have also scored below average - it hasn't been as dominating as Pinker-bro thinks.
The first two decades of the 20'th century routinely showed Ashkenazi Jews in America scoring below average. American Soldier IQ tests during WWI found Nordics scoring well above Jews. Carl Brigham, Princeton professor, "our figures would rather tend to disprove the popular belief that the Jew is highly intelligent." In WWII, the IQ was above average.

Among the rest of the jewish (as well as the chinese and blacks).
Jewish older generation IQ: 92.8 Younger generation: 101.3
Chinese: 97 in 1948 and 109.6 in 1990.
The gap between white and black Americans narrowed by 5.5 points between 1972 and 2002.
There cannot be any genetic explanation in a generation or two for this.

Craig Venter, American biologist who led the private effort to decode the human genome, "There is no basis in scientific fact or in the human genetic code for the notion that race will be predictive of intelligence."

For Kenya I'd like to say something about the history of it. It was only in 1963 that Kenya began a campaign for free primary education after independence in 1963. Before that primary education was not free at all.

>>10771054
All people stereotype and make snap judgments, smart or not.

The difference is intelligent people are aware of the limitations of this kind of reasoning; they don't buy stereotypes based on hearsay or insufficient evidence, and they don't overuse them.
For example an intelligent person can rationally stereotype an Indian as a curry-eater since an overwhelming majority of Indians eat curry on a regular basis. But he won't stereotype a black as a violent criminal since <0.1% of blacks have violent crime convictions (according to BJS statistics).

>>10775049
The response is that it's not purely environmental, and they would be right.
it ends up being a rather old (and useless) debate between nature vs nurture.
however that still doesn't lead to race to be predictive of intelligence.
it's basically a dead-end idea which is why no-one studies it.
Besides, it's not like anyone (white or black or whatever) has any control over who they were born as, anyway. So it's all pointless.

HIGH IQ PEOPLE HAVE 0% CHANCE OF HAVING HEROIN ADDICTED BABIES. LOW IQ PEOPLE BEING RESPONSIBLE FOR THE BULK OF MISERY ON THIS PLANET. KNOWING THE IQ OF A GIVEN GROUP OF PEOPLE ALLOWS YOU TO MAKE STRONG PREDICTIONS ABOUT THEIR WELL BEING, PRODUCTIVITY AND HEALTH, OUTPERFORMING SOCIO-ECONOMIC BACKGROUND, RACE AND RELIGION. READ FUCKING BOOKS INSTEAD OF MAGAZINES. YOUR PEERS LIKELY HAVE SIMILAR IQ AS YOU, MAKING IQ LESS IMPACTFUL ON YOUR DIRECT SURROUNDINGS.

Not a chance. Its like with height, people are considerably taller on average than 100 years ago, but the difference stays. North Europeans are still taller than south Europeans. East Asians are shorter than Europeans with any kind of nutrition. And no matter the amount of milk and honey you give a Pygmy when hes young, he will never be tall. Same with other highly heritable traits like intelligence.

>>10776356

the fall of rome was due to a massive mismanagement of their economic structure, because "the high priests" were price fixing. enough so that barbarians from the north (which where significantly less technologically advanced) could easily take over the country.

Often times, "more intelligent" is synonymous with "white people" with these arguments.

Anthropology says no.
Agriculture, towns, and alphabets first emerged in Mesopotamia, a region not known for environmental stresses. There is ample scientific evidence of modern intelligence in prehistoric sub-saharan africa. Christopher Henshilwood argues that these Africans were intelligent, creative people.
This pushes back the date when modern thinking was developing.

>The Minnesota Transracial Adoption Study examined the IQ test scores of 130 black or interracial children adopted by advantaged white families. The aim of the study was to determine the contribution of environmental and genetic factors to the poor performance of black children on IQ tests as compared to white children. The initial study was published in 1976[1] by Sandra Scarr and Richard A. Weinberg. A follow-up study was published in 1992[2] by Richard Weinberg, Sandra Scarr and Irwin D. Waldman. Another related study investigating social adjustment in a subsample of the adopted black children was published in 1996. The study found that "(a) putative genetic racial differences do not account for a major portion of the IQ performance difference between racial groups, and (b) black and interracial children reared in the culture of the tests and the schools perform as well as other adopted children in similar families."

>there are identifiable racial differences based on gene clustering is fairly well accepted

The problem is you're confusing simple structures vs complex structures.
It's perfectly clear that there are going to be people of different color, predispositions to diseases, and simple things like lactose tolerance. These are all simple structures of single gene mutations which can spread easily among any population.

However complex structures, like the brain, involve a multi-complex network of thousands of genes, which most likely takes 100 millennia to evolve appreciably.

>However complex structures, like the brain, involve a multi-complex network of thousands of genes, which most likely takes 100 millennia to evolve appreciably.

Single genes tend to vary in more or less clinal manner. It is exactly when taking into account hundreds of genes and more, when clustering clearly appears. Hence polygenic or omnigenic traits like intelligence is where human genetic clustering is likely especially relevant.

>>10774997
The Nazis own tests show Germans with average IQ at around 100, compared to Ashkenazis with average of 115.

Also, just because one twin study shows that class also has plays a role, doesn't mean that it isn't in some part genetic.

Of course they're not going to say these differences are because of race, if they claimed that "these differences might be because of race" (let alone saying it's likely because of race) their lifes would get would completely ruined, see James Watson for example.

Intelligence varying across races is the only explanation of these results.

>>10779891
>It is exactly when taking into account hundreds of genes and more, when clustering clearly appears.
Our "starting point", mitochondrial Eve, lived around 200,000 years ago. Since this is recent (evolutionarily speaking), human beings share a remarkably high proportion of their genes compared to other mammals. For example, chimpanzee's that live in central africa has significantly more genetic variation than does the entire human race.
Geneticists have long claimed that all human beings, regardless of race, share about 99 per cent of their functional genes. And this suggests that, despite obvious differences in how members of different races look, race is only skin deep.

what? That's the guy I'm responding to. And I'm talking about IQ tests done in Germany by the Nazi Regime. Not USA post-WWII.

Also to add, the reason for this discrepancy is likely the result of the professional opportunities of Jews in Germany. They weren't allowed to be in agriculture or most other artisanal professions, so they gravitated towards banking, media and science. This led to the more intelligent Jews having more children, as they had the economic prerequisites for both having them and preventing death at young ages.

Unlike arguments directed at low IQ individuals, showing cause and effect and usually extrapolating this to larger social arena for policy, this is purely an ad hominem attack. If you are going to call me an underachiever, then I won't contribute to society at all, ever, my entire life. You can pay my welfare for the rest of your pathetic existence, while I sit back with my big brain, which could have been used for garnering greatness to oil the gears sustaining society, I will use it, purely for myself. And I will not be in the wrong at all, as why should I, someone with an IQ of 159, help prop up a rotten system that advantages midwits such as yourself, yet allocates nothing to the few who could have made a difference from the start. Bon voyage, midwit and midwit society, your ship has sailed and without competent operators such as myself, it will inevitably crash. And when it does, you'll get no help from me. I will be sitting on the sidelines, and when things get rough, I will still be sitting there. When you ask for my help, I will still be sitting. Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of midwits, and hast eaten of the tree of dysgenics and medocrity: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life.

>This led to the more intelligent Jews having more children, as they had the economic prerequisites for both having them and preventing death at young ages.
I mean this statement is illogical, because they didn't have any economic prerequisites - they were poor and lived in isolated German ghettos. Which is the reason WHY they had so many kids. You increase the opportunity cost of having kids (i.e. become more productive), you will see fewer kids. If you decrease the opportunity cost of having kids (i.e. become less productive), you will see more kids. This is why rich families tend to have relatively less kids than poor families.
And it's been also said that the rapid "evolution" was possible because they were forbidden to marry outside of the Jewish community - which leads to the "don't cross-breed" /pol/ meme.
The claim was also made as a factor behind the disproportionate prevalence in Ashkenazi Jews of genetic diseases such as Tay-Sachs and Gaucher’s, which Pinker-bro et. all claimed were a byproduct of natural selection for higher intelligence.
Those carrying the gene variants, or alleles, for these diseases were said to be smarter than the rest.

DNA research by other scientists has shown that Ashkenazi Jews are far less genetically isolated than Pinker-bro's paper argued.
On the claims that Ashkenazi diseases were caused by rapid natural selection, further research has shown that they were caused by a random mutation.
There is no evidence that those carrying the gene variants for these diseases are any more or less intelligent than the rest of the community.
>There is no "intelligence" gene.
There are no isolated genes which are tied to intelligence. The system is too complex. There are no neatly packaged intelligence genes.

>>10782254
if I remember correctly the jewish tendency to only breed within their community was somewhat weaker among german jewish population than it was further towards the east due to social and economic reasons

>>10782254
First of all they weren't poor, the Ashkenazi population was often wealthy in Germany. Second, the "rich families have less kids than poor" is only true today. Because mortality among children was very high, poor people had comparatively less children than rich and middle class. That is a recent development.

And as for the "Ashkenazi genetical purity/there is a single intelligence gene" thing, that's not part of my argument.

>The response is that it's not purely environmental

Wrong, there is nothing environmental about intelligence, its mostly genetics. Genetics is the framework, and you're denying the role of genetics so you can continue to preach your environmental determinism. You just don't flat out say that environment determines 100% of intelligence, but that's what your saying.

good job you IQ denying fuckwad. First sentence and you are already in disagreement with the majority of scientists. I mean, just listen to yourself. Genetics are responsible for 100% of the brain structure that facilitates cognition, behavior and personality. We KNOW that's true for animals, yet here you are saying, that all those genes are meaingless, and intelligence is some unquantifiable and magical dust

>it ends up being a rather old (and useless) debate between nature vs nurture.

There is no such thing as nature vs nurture. Its a non-existent dividing line that, again, modern research on the field doesn't preach. Let me demonstrate it with an easy example. Reading books to your child increases their verbal IQ, the problem, is that the environment that causes this, is because a person with certain genetic traits CHOOSES to create this environment for their child. So you cannot separate this "environmental effect" from genetics. Likewise, there is also the Wilson effect, the heritability of IQ increases with age. And one reason for this, is that as a person ages, the environment they choose becomes a reflection of the genetics that drives them to make such choices. It's like how you can force a child to read, and he may become a better reader, but he'll drop the book the moment the pressure is gone.

>doesn't lead to race to be predictive of intelligence.

Wrong shithead, you can literally chose ANY type of population, and using averages, make predictions of intelligence. This is what IQ and race deniers don't get. I don't need race to prove black people are less intelligent.

>>10779311
No leftists shithead. If you're gonna deny science, you may as well deny IQ. You should also deny genetics, because leftists have a problem with the science of genetics because of the implications of inherited characteristics. Never forget that leftists developed the pseudoscience Lysenkoism and murdered a bunch of geneticists because they hate genetics.

Race science is alive and well too you dipshit, you do know that right? It just has a different name, its called population genetics and even the science of making predictions just from appearances is making a comeback, because, no shot phenotype would correlate with behavior, both are influenced by genetics! but its the descendants of all previous research on race, and may I add, provides the greatest proof for race being a valid taxonomical category.

Not that you need race to prove that racial equality is pseudoscience, black people are a legit threat to civilization because their genes cannot handle it, and that there are moral reasons to treat race differently. That's somethign the retarded left and the moronic narcissistic black poster doesn't really get, but they don't understand genetics, so they don't understand that all population genetics can make valid predictions about said population. Race is just a red herring we use on leftists to make sure they get distracted while we do our research. Once the truth gets out, the implications will be the same.

>>10782254

Holy shit, you don't know anything about genetics, you anti-/pol/ fucktard. In fact, if you believe
1) In racial equality pseudoscience
2) Denying that IQ has predictive validity
3) That intelligence, behavior and personality are built on a genetic framework

Then there is no reasoning with you. All of these points have been validated, and yet you far left anti-/pol/ fucks bring up your retarded politics, and think that's enough to validity your environmental determinism over genetic science. I'm not gonna listen to the people, who have murdered thousands of people thanks to this racial equality nonsense. It's even more mind bogglyingly when some of you actual admit that IQ is legit, but then say that "racial differences in IQ" is pseudoscience. Well dipshit, then how do you explain the findings of IQ that suggests there are racial differences that have been both consistent and heritable?

>There are no isolated genes which are tied to intelligence. The system is too complex. There are no neatly packaged intelligence genes.

Pure nonsense drivel that can only come from someone who doesn't even understand genetics. Well you anti /pol/ fucktards, why don't you just deny genes? I mean, what even is a gene? It's just a human social construct that we randomly assign to long segments of DNA. I mean, where does a gene for hair begin and end? HUR DUR HUR DUR

>And it's been also said that the rapid "evolution" was possible because they were forbidden to marry outside of the Jewish community - which leads to the "don't cross-breed" /pol/ meme.

This kinda highlights your inability to understand genetics. See, you realize that even if humans were near 100% genetically identical, then it would still be possible for populations of said human to show genetic differences in cognitive traits right? You do know why that would be possible right? You are aware that "genetic drift" makes it 100% impossible for populations to be genetically equal, right?

What's with that passive aggressive response you little bitch?

Leftists are so retarded that they actually think you can't make valid predictions from just a person genetics. Well dipshit, if that were true, how come polygenic scores are a thing, and they have been successfully implemented? You think intelligence is some impossible to quantify construct, when it's obviously just a biological output of a brain constructed by genetics and the processes that occur in it. That is why certain genetic disease will cause problems with intelligence, and why some genetic disorders, like William Syndrome, have been known to produce consistent behavioral changes, and the ONLY reason they behave differently is because of the loss of those 27 genes. That is not some super complex thing.

Let us some up far leftists stupidity:

1) The only reason why deny IQ and race and genetics, is because of your far left religion and your belief in racial equality pseudoscience. Anyone centrists, moderate, rational and sane will see there is a justifiable reason to believe there are cognitive differences between races. You force a standard on this research. Race and IQ is WAY more falsifiable then Dark Matter, but I don't see you far leftists screeching about how those "/pol/ babies support dark matter even though its not real, here are all the scientists that reject it!", because dark matter isn't heresy.
2) They don't understand genetics. The biggest proof is that they scream about the danger of the implications, yet for some reason, accept genetic principles because their too focused at people correctly saying blacks are stupid...but then they say population genetics is legit or that genetic drift or that IQ IS influenced by genetics is true. Well then if you accept that, you do realize that genetic drift means that its impossible for genetic equality to exist in population. You don't need race to prove that people from African genetics are behaviorally and cognitively unequal

The question remains. What's a good reason why a westerner with a BSc (aka brainlet) level IQ shouldn't move to a lower IQ region of the planet and exploit the lower IQ people and fuck their women?

3) It's wrong to call these racial equality pseduoscientists only race and IQ deniers. They don't just deny race and IQ. They deny the very basis of genetics. That's why they get deeply uncomfortable whenever someone points out that the mainstream consensus is that intelligence is HEAVILY genetic. Not "influenced by environment", but that genetics ITSELF shapes intelligence, and it forms the genes form the framework of intelligence, not the other way around. Every single one of them has written nonsense and a compete lack of understanding of genetics. Which is why the people who think black people don't have a lower IQ, are writing the dumbest environmental determinist shit, or this complete and utter nonsense:

>There are no isolated genes which are tied to intelligence. The system is too complex. There are no neatly packaged intelligence genes.

What bullshit. I bet I can trick racial equalitarians that there is no such thing as genetics, they are uneducated on the subject. Hence why they spout Lewontin fallacy bullshit, numbers that are utterly meaningless in context, but for the uneducated, they think "wow 99% high number

Another thing that makes them retarded, is that, notice how they focus so much on race? I don't get it, aren't they afraid of the implications? You realize a world were people understand that IQ is ALL genetics and that it differs between population is true and you are just delaying the inevitable? But they focus on race, and think that pretending black people aren't real well destroy the implications. No they won't. You don't need race to prove racial differences. Why are leftists so fucking stupid that they don't understand this?

Also, genetic drift, allele frequency and fixation makes it entirely possible for populations to exhibit extreme differences in average trait even if they are genetically the same, simply out of random chance!

There is evidence for racial unequality.

I just read your post twice and can't understand what you are trying to say.

Who is "they"?

The question is: Why don't the 100 IQ people who get cucked by the 120+ IQ people in the West not move to a low IQ country where the IQ is <80 and slide straight into the top positions in their hierarchies?

>>10785340
>They get scared and can't handle the environment let alone natives on par with them. That's why the only move when they move for work and a company covers expenses.

That is the most delusional insecure brown people cope shit I've ever read. The past 2 centuries are built of high IQ races dominating and controlling the low IQ races to great benefit, and its still happening with China. Fucking white Europeans outcompeted the Abos on their harsh homeland and built a first world nation. South Africa was able to be a nuclear power, and it only did so because it successful did everything in its power to strip Africans any right to damage their society.

In fact, Central America recent history is just a bunch of American fruit company exploiting those mestizos bad governance.

So yes, a westerners SHOULD take advantage of low IQ nations. Big fish in a small pond? I would advise against Africa. The genetic problems with Africans aren't even their IQ, but their aggression, their shitty behavior and their narcissism, all of which are genetic too.

Thus, ALL race and IQ deniers are just gene deniers, and the reason they deny GENETICS is SOLELY because of their far left religion. Have these race and IQ deniers never made a post without screeching about MUH /pol/ like the insecure pissbabies they are?. I mean, you need to understand, these retards unironically believe that human personality, behavioral traits, and cognitive traits aren't just as genetics as a person's skin color and hair color. In fact, these people have a strange understanding of genetics. Apparently, genes only affect superficial physical appearance and that's it. Everything else is influenced by environmental magic, and they believe it because part of the appeal the far left religion has, is the belief that they have total control over humans because of their belief in infinite malleability. It's what communism is built on. It's why Stalin hated genetics and had it banned, and ruined Soviet genetics, and why a person like Lysenko was able to preach his bullshit and why leftists activists got angry at E.O Wilson that they attacked him for "sociobiology". There is evidence of rapid evolution in humans, population differentiation, and that all traits are genetic, so objectively, you cannot dismiss the heredetarian hypothesis other then politics

These people are dinosaurs and they will die out as the practical aspects of genetic intelligence/behavioral research comes out. But since they are zealots, they won't change. You cannot reason with them, how often has OP been attacked and BTFO for his stupid beliefs? Not enough. And he even does dumb shit like reply to his own post pretending he's another person agreeing with him

Whenever I see some dipshit screech about /pol/, I filter them. The only thing they deserve is for their head to be split on the sidewalk, or maybe be hooked up to this machine as the greatest irony.

You can coach anyone with enough money and time and stability to take and pass IQ tests and their variants at any time.

>>10785560
>Studies of clustering reopened a debate on the scientific reality of race, or lack thereof. In the late 1990s Harvard evolutionary geneticist Richard Lewontin stated that "no justification can be offered for continuing the biological concept of race. (...) Genetic data shows that no matter how racial groups are defined, two people from the same racial group are about as different from each other as two people from any two different racial groups. This view has been affirmed by numerous authors and the American Association of Physical Anthropologists since. A.W.F. Edwards as well as Rick Kittles and Jeffrey Long have criticized Lewontin's methodology, with Long noting that there are more similarities between humans and chimpanzees than differences, and more genetic variation within chimps and humans than between them. Edwards also charged that Lewontin made an "unjustified assault on human classification, which he deplored for social reasons". In their 2015 article, Keith Hunley, Graciela Cabana, and Jeffrey Long recalculate the apportionment of human diversity using a more complex model than Lewontin and his successors. They conclude: "In sum, we concur with Lewontin’s conclusion that Western-based racial classifications have no taxonomic significance, and we hope that this research, which takes into account our current understanding of the structure of human diversity, places his seminal finding on firmer evolutionary footing."

>>10785713
>Genetic clustering studies, and particularly the five-cluster result published by Rosenberg's team in 2002, have been interpreted by journalist Nicholas Wade, evolutionary biologist Armand Marie Leroi, and others as demonstrating the biological reality of race. For Leroi, "Race is merely a shorthand that enables us to speak sensibly, though with no great precision, about genetic rather than cultural or political differences." He states that, "One could sort the world's population into 10, 100, perhaps 1,000 groups", and describes Europeans, Basques, Andaman Islanders, Ibos, and Castillians each as a "race". In response to Leroi's claims, the Social Science Research Council convened a panel of experts to discuss race and genomics online. In their 2002 and 2005 papers, Rosenberg and colleagues disagree that their data implies the biological reality of race.

>In 2006, Lewontin wrote that any genetic study requires some priori concept of race or ethnicity in order to package human genetic diversity into a defined, limited number of biological groupings. Informed by genetics, zoologists have long discarded the concept of race for dividing groups of non-human animal populations within a species. Defined on varying criteria, in the same species a widely varying number of races could be distinguished. Lewontin notes that genetic testing revealed that "because so many of these races turned out to be based on only one or two genes, two animals born in the same litter could belong to different 'races'".

>>10785654

>>10785718
>Studies that seek to find genetic clusters are only as informative as the populations they sample. For example, Risch and Burchard relied on two or three local populations from five continents, which together were supposed to represent the entire human race. Another genetic clustering study used three sub-Saharan population groups to represent Africa; Chinese, Japanese, and Cambodian samples for East Asia; Northern European and Northern Italian samples to represent "Caucasians". Entire regions, subcontinents, and landmasses are left out of many studies. Furthermore, social geographical categories such "East Asia" and "Caucasians" were not defined. "A handful of ethnic groups to symbolize an entire continent mimic a basic tenet of racial thinking: that because races are composed of uniform individuals, anyone can represent the whole group" notes Roberts.

>>10785740
>King and Motulsky, in a 2002 Science article, state that "While the computer-generated findings from all of these studies offer greater insight into the genetic unity and diversity of the human species, as well as its ancient migratory history, none support dividing the species into discrete, genetically determined racial categories". Cavalli-Sforza asserts that classifying clusters as races would be a "futile exercise" because "every level of clustering would determine a different population and there is no biological reason to prefer a particular one". Bamshad, in 2004 paper published in Nature, asserts that a more accurate study of human genetic variation would use an objective sampling method, which would choose populations randomly and systematically across the world, including those populations which are characterized by historical intermingling, instead of cherry-picking population samples which fit a priori concepts of racial classification. Roberts states that "if research collected DNA samples continuously from region to region throughout the world, they would find it impossible to infer neat boundaries between large geographical groups."

>Anthropologists such as C. Loring Brace, philosophers Jonathan Kaplan and Rasmus Winther, and geneticist Joseph Graves, have argued that while it is certainly possible to find biological and genetic variation that corresponds roughly to the groupings normally defined as "continental races", this is true for almost all geographically distinct populations. The cluster structure of the genetic data is therefore dependent on the initial hypotheses of the researcher and the populations sampled. When one samples continental groups the clusters become continental; if one had chosen other sampling patterns the clustering would be different.

>Weiss and Fullerton have noted that if one sampled only Icelanders, Mayans and Maoris, three distinct clusters would form and all other populations could be described as being clinally composed of admixtures of Maori, Icelandic and Mayan genetic materials. Kaplan and Winther therefore argue that seen in this way both Lewontin and Edwards are right in their arguments. They conclude that while racial groups are characterized by different allele frequencies, this does not mean that racial classification is a natural taxonomy of the human species, because multiple other genetic patterns can be found in human populations that cross-cut racial distinctions. Moreover, the genomic data under-determines whether one wishes to see subdivisions (i.e., splitters) or a continuum (i.e., lumpers). Under Kaplan and Winther's view, racial groupings are objective social constructions (see Mills 1998 ) that have conventional biological reality only insofar as the categories are chosen and constructed for pragmatic scientific reasons.

>Not an actual fallacy. Called that by people who disliked that argument which wasn't fallacious at all.

It's a fallacy, because Lewontin was a Marxist who invented this argument to attack the "racists" but the argument is a fallacy. It's not an argument that has had ANY impact on the field of genetics. Only on anti-racists and far left sociologists. It's also a fallacy because it's a nonsensical argument that only works out of context, but with context, does not debunk the notion that race is a valid taxonomical concept. You can use this fallacy to even debunk any other "taxonomical concept", but Lewontin fallacy is only applied to race because of their politics, not of an objective scientific stance.

>Not an actual recognized effect. A poor sport of trying to mimic the hype being Flynn effect with way less supported studies

You do know that the Flynn effect was coined, not by Flynn, but by Charles Murray in the Bell Curve right? If not him, I think he popularized it. You do know that right? Don't you find it odd that the one thing from the Bell Curve the left believes is the Flynn effect, it speaks to how their politics and not reason is what drives their pseudoscience in this debate.

Anyway, yes dipshit, the Wilson Effect is real, search it.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23919982

You know, I guess its just a coincidence that IQ gets more heritable with age, and has nothing to do with the fact that intelligence is genetic. I mean, that type of phenomena is seen with numerous other genetic traits (such as how as a young child, you can have light blonde hair, but as you age, the hair gets browner, matching your parents)

Could race and IQ deniers make it more obvious that they hate the entire field of genetics? Stop pretending you don't deny genetics too. Your entire argument only makes sense if you deny aspects of genetics too.

Hi ChapoTrapHouse and far left retards from reddit, you are INHERENTLY human garbage.

Listen here retard. Genetics influences everything, to the point that I know that the subhumans here who deny even the possibility that your DNA, which is the reason why you even have physical form in this universe, could have a substantial impact on the brain and how it processes the universe, that this denial all stems from a personality problem caused by your genes. Trying to change you and convince you that you are wrong its pointless, just like how trying to force blacks to enjoy reading is a utterly pointless exercise and why all social programs that tried it, failed. You aren't changing them. They don't want to listen.

Every single one of you retards clearly do not understand much about genetics, yet here you are trying to lecture us about how race and IQ isn't real, when you don't even know concept likes genetic drift, or even the g-construct which makes IQ a valid thing.

The point isn't to convince you. The point is to remind anyone sane reading this, that the people who deny race and IQ LITERALLY DENY THE POSSIBILITY THAT GENETICS INFLUENCES HUMANS. There is a reason why there doesn't exists a person who denies race and IQ, but at the same time, believes that genetics influences human cognitive, behavioral and personality trait. To believe the latter, but to deny the possibility of the former will just cause serious cognitive dissonance issues. You should check out HARDTALK with Robert Plomin to see what I mean. Not a single mention of race and IQ, but the very research of genetics and intelligence makes these leftists activists uncomfortable and aggressive.

Funny, that is ezactly what happened years later, se here:

>>10779891

Collect genomes from hundreds of people that adequately sample global population, analyze hundreds of genetic loci instead of a handful, and you get neat clustering that quite corresponds to both geographical features and old ideas about race (tough sometimes the clusters overlap slightly).

Those denying this fact are still stuck in an era before cheap whole genome sequencing became possible. That is why they cite mostly old studies from early 2000s and earlier, like this poster. Meanwhile real science marches on.

If you genuinely believe that you can:
>Define race clinically
>Define Intelligence via IQ testing
>Show a causal link between a gene that codes and correlates for a particular IQ score and racial definition and it's role in a particular environment
Then you clearly need help in comprehension and scientific discourse.
Perhaps it is your own IQ that needs testing?

Statistically, in the UK, the private school system shows categorically the influence of social environment and early years teaching along with diet as directly correlating with testing that would give an indication of yourgod like devotion to IQ.
This does not in of itself confer a test of "Intelligence." Many of these pupils that turn to adults regularly pass your IQ tests, come from wealthy backgrounds but are far from intelligent.
Case in point; look at the Brexit debate.

Again, can you cannot define tangibly race and intelligence. Neither do your extrapolations ever include anything about environment, diet, social class and social systems.
And no, I don't believe sex or genes are a "social construct" but fucking hell,interactions at all levels are indeed social constructs and influence a myriad of outcomes and opportunities and measures of what is intelligence.
