Racial difference in the age at which children can pass the mirror test have nothing to do with racial IQ differences, the age difference (18 months for whites, 6 years for blacks) is strictly a cultural phenomenon.

I hate studies like this because there are always small differences in things like the age distribution of the different samples. Anyway, TLDR the rankings:
>USA: 3% of kids just freeze when they see their reflection
>Canada: 8%
>St Lucia: 8%
>Peru: 33%
>Grenada: 40%
>Fiji: 88%
>Kenya: 97.5%

Interestingly the USA sample is from Atlanta so they are almost certainly negroid. The Canada sample is from a small community in Nova Scotia, meaning maybe whites, or maybe red Indians. Either way, it is surprising to see the Atlanta negroids outperform them. On the other hand, it is also surprising to see the American negroids perform diametrically opposite from their African cousins.

Racist sisters… were we wrong about the mirror test? Maybe it’s just testing two variables (X) are you old enough, and (Y) have you seen a mirror before.

While middle income blacks do exist in Atlanta, most of the black population is low income. Since the study in Atlanta was on middle income children, there's a good chance they were non-black.
My guess is that they conducted the study at Emory University as Harvard researchers would likely have connections there. If that's the case, pulling children from the surrounding area where families of those working at Emory or the CDC live would net mostly white and Asian children (and possibly some Jews from Druid Hills). But that's a guess so we really don't know the racial makeup of the test subjects.

Did anyone in this thread actually read the methodology? There's no control for education or opportunity that the children have had. In the brief for Experiment 1 (Kenya) it explicitly calls out that while children are required to attend school at 3-4 years of age there is significant economic disparity.

>It may be important to note the general use of mirrors in each of the cultures. Although we did not include an independent measure of the extent and nature of mirror experience in these cultures, the experimenters visited many homes in these various communities. Although mirrors are present in most non-Western and all Western homes, their use varies considerably. It is more conspicuously and frequently used in the West, compared to any of the other cultures considered here. Western children are more likely to have shared mirror exposure with others or to have seen themselves in a mirror in the presence of others, a situation presumably unfamiliar to the nonWestern children we tested.

Classic leftist purity spiraling to invalidate anything they find offensive. No study is infinitely pure and free from flaws, so you can disprove every fact this way by pointing to some nonsense flaw.

The question for non-retarded humans is: does this realistically impact the outcome much? Does socioeconomic status make your brain so retarded you pass the mirror test 5 years later? Highly unlikely, unless you are a leftist cultist trying to defend your holy cow.

>Experiment 1—Kenya
>In Experiment 1, we tested children from Kenya for self-referencing behaviors in the mark test following the procedure described above.
>Participants and Setting
>Eighty-two children ranging from 18 to 72 months of age
...
>Results and Discussion
>Of the 82 children tested, only two demonstrated any of the defined self-oriented behaviors when facing their “marked” image in the mirror (one-tailed binomial test, p < .001, with a .60 probability threshold). Of these two children, one removed the mark and one touched but did not remove the mark (both were 48 months of age; one male and one female).
This study observed 6 year old Kenyans who did not pass the Mirror test, but it observed two 4 year olds who (mostly) did. So that's either better or worse depending on how you look at it.
