To get realistic results you must compare the races within a social class.

If blacks from the ghetto are in average dumber than whites and asians from the ghetto, and if blacks from the middle-class are in average dumber than whites and asians from the middle class, and if blacks from the upper class are in average dumber than whites and asians from the upper class, then you have proven a point.

But then a question still remains; what are you trying to achieve with it? Should blacks have less rights and not so many opportunities? This would be very unfair to the talented, smart blacks, and would favor a stupid white person without any obvious reason.

"Early in life, shared environmental factors are the dominant influence on IQ, but gradually genetic influence increases, with the effects of shared environment dropping to near zero (see the twin studies in Table 1). Although not reported here, adoption studies of (a) unrelated individuals reared together and (b) adoptive parents and their adopted offspring have reported similar results—increasing genetic influence on IQ with age and decreasing shared environmental influence. Results from two twin studies of IQ in old age (over 75) are reported in Table 1. Both studies found a substantial level of genetic influence and little shared environmental influence. The results do, however, suggest some decline in heritability when compared with results for earlier ages. There is no evidence for sex differences in heritability for IQ at any age."

I don't think anyone is advocating that black individuals should be treated differently based on their race. They are arguing against the hurricane of rhetoric that comes from the left, to the tune of: "blacks have lower achievement on average, which is evidence of racism, therefore the government should make extraordinary efforts to help them in order to correct for the racism." The "help" comes in the form of affirmative action, extra spending on inner-city schools, regulations that force the government to favor minority-owned businesses for contracts, etc. If the average black IQ is lower, then all of these efforts are expensive attempts to force the economy into an irrational situation (where blacks are equally successful on average despite not being equally capable on average).

Accepting that average IQs are different would stop such statistics-based attempts to prove that there's horrible racism happening, and we could accept that different races will have different average levels of success at different things. Then people, businesses, and societies would only be accused of racism if they're actually racist (real racism is discriminating against a more capable black INDIVIDUAL because he's black).

Blackanon here

Most people assume disparities and differences in performance arise from environmental differences. Racists assume disparities and differences in performance arise from genetic differences. Neither these positions are "proveable", but it's idiotic that one is taboo and held to arbitrarily higher standards of scientific rigor than the other. This should be a question of open inquiry, hurt feelings or not.

the human race is blessed with tools and technology so adaptation is no longer needed. This is why some mistakenly claim some races are better than others in general

its the same argument with animal fights, what's better a lion or a tiger?
neither they are both suited to different situations

but what if you put them in a neutral place?
there is no such thing, every environment is an environment

Stating that one race is superior to another takes a stance that one race's qualities are superior, which is rooted in bias.

Objectively, no race is superior to another, and no species is superior to another, no matter how much more evolved. Not until you introduce the identifying and comparing of an ability are you able to compare the differences of each species against another. But doing so means you have just made a bias that that chosen ability is something of merit.

But I'll take being smart over being athletic. Plenty of people may disagree with me. I'm a fairly average athlete (started for HS football team, but that's about it), but I scored in the 99th percentile on my ACT/SAT.

I think it all comes down to adaptations to environments. Africans developed differently as a direct result of environmental aspects, and as a result many people of african descent have genetics that are favorable to an athletic build, but place less emphasis on intelligence. It simply wasn't selected for. Smart non-athletes were devoured by the animals. Quick idiots survived. And smart athletes survived, but few are blessed with both qualities. The exact opposite took place in Europe, where natural selection was more dependent on intelligence because society developed much faster.

TL;DR, stereotypes exist because of the majority and are true because of the environments which cultivated the phenotype originally. However, exceptions exist semi-frequently, and there are smart black people and athletic whites. Racism is unwarranted because not EVERYONE in a racial group is the same(blacks having the most genetic variability), even if a majority are

>> No.3132571

HOLY FUCKING SHIT
IT'S LIKE NOBODY IN THIS THREAD KNOWS ANYTHING ABOUT PSYCHOLOGY OR EVEN SCIENCE

There are so many variables involved in determining intelligence that attributing racial differences entirely to either genetic or environmental factors is extremely presumptuous.

I actually think putting money in inner-city schools is necessary because segregation is what put most black families there in the first place. Doing well in those schools is far harder than in a suburban area because of everything else going on so it needs some extra support.

>> No.3132615

>>3132571 continued
Furthermore, there are immeasurably many compounding variables that affect racial IQ scores.
Blacks are much more likely to be poor than whites, and growing up in a poor household has been shown to negatively affect IQ, even when genetic factors are controlled for (e.g., adopted babies)
Black parents also tend to be more likely to be uneducated and have lower IQs themselves, which has also been shown to affect the IQ of children (again, genetic factors being controlled for). Thus, there may be a vicious cycle in which parents with low IQs raise children to have low IQs, who then go on to raise their own children with low IQs, etc.

Any sources that prove this to be true?

Also, looking at Black/Hispanic kids raised in white family studies, they still score lower than whites and Asians in white families and still lower than whites and asians who are raised in black families. To be fair, the whites in asians in black families still scored lower than ones in white families but only by a division of 5 points. Economic conditions are already proven false. Yes, they can affect IQ scores but not anywhere significant in the slightest. Many high IQ people have also grown up in poverty.

nope. Oldest siblings actually have lower iqs than younger ones untill the age of 12, THEN they start having a higher IQ.

My only source is one of the lectures in this great course:

There are more environmental factors than just the economic status of the family, you also need to consider the society at large. Our society right now encourages blacks to be lazy, stupid, violent thugs, and even black children by a white family would be exposed to that.

Alright then.

Do blacks in Europe score just as high or higher than whites in Europe?

They are obviously different from the blacks in America, right?

How about every where else? All the studies wherever blacks are they score lower than everybody else.

The excuse of blacks being encourage being lazy and whatnot could also be applied to Mexicans, who come here with nothing and less education yet still do better.

Why do you think that is?

It's already proven in other animals that things like behavior and intelligence are inheritable.

Will watch it later, thanks.

Here's the excerpt from The Blank Slate that I was referring to:

"...[S]ubsequent analyses have shown that any effects of birth order on personality turn up in the studies that ask siblings or parents to rate one another, or to rate themselves with respect to a sibling, which of course can assess only their family relationships. When personality is measured by neutral parties outside the family, birth-order effects diminish or disappear.[48]"

48. Harris, 1998a, appendix 1; Harris, in press.

Of course, this is referring to personality traits, not IQ.

Lets say the predominant black culture is largely anti-intellectual.
And lets say humans are naturally racist, and children in particular are still ruled to a large degree by their subconcious behavioural predispositions (i.e slight racial favouritism).
And lets say humans (and indeed all social animals) are very good at subconciously detecting how broadly related someone is to them (ever found mixed race women attractive, but not women of other races, what's up with that?).

And lets say white kids subconciously give more favouritism towards kids who are more related to them (i.e other white kids) and give less favouritism towards kids the least related to them the least (i.e full black, with mixed race in between).
And lets say black kids are more subconciously drawn towards kids who share more genes with them (i.e black kids), with more mixed kids more inbetween (simple evolutionary psychology really).

Animal brains are also much less complex than ours, and take nowhere near as long to form and develop.
Most human behavior is learned from interaction with each other and the environment, whereas the behaviors of most animals are largely based on instinct and genetics.

And lets say humans (and indeed all social animals) are very good at subconciously detecting how broadly related someone is to them (ever found people of mixed race sexually attractive, but felt not much attraction towards people fully of other races, what's up with that?).- in fact, some argue this ability is vital for kin alruism to work properly.

Another relevant and interesting paper:

http://people.virginia.edu/~ent3c/papers2/Articles%20for%20Online%20CV/Johnson%20(2009).pdf

"The heritability of human behavioral traits is now well established, due in large measure to classical twin studies. We see little need for further studies of the heritability of individual traits in behavioral science, but the twin study is far from having outlived its usefulness. *The existence of pervasive familial influences on behavior means that selection bias is always a concern in any study of the causal effects of environmental circumstances*."

Already pointed this out on another shit thread. Quoted from Wiki:
>Suppose two handfuls are taken from a sack containing a genetically diverse variety of corn, and each grown under carefully controlled and standardized conditions, except that one batch is lacking in certain nutrients that are supplied to the other. After several weeks, the plants are measured. There is variability of growth within each batch, due to the genetic variability of the corn. Given that the growing conditions are closely controlled, nearly all the variation in the height of the plants within a batch will be due to differences in their genes. Thus, within populations, heritabilities will be very high. Nevertheless, the difference between the two groups is due entirely to an environmental factor - differential nutrition. Lewontin didn't go so far as to have the one set of pots painted white and the other set black, but you get the idea. The point of the example, in any case, is that the causes of between-group differences may in principle be quite different from the causes of within-group variation.

Anybody with good critical thinking skills should've realized this when they read the definition of heritability. It would be hilarious that people are trying to support their views with Wikipedia citations when the very article they've cribbed their references from destroys their logic if it weren't so repugnant.

>> No.3133601

Actually that would be quite easy to explain with education, aside from the "africans" in OP's pic the differences are all so small as to be insignificant when compared against education and nurture.

So there could be a very real genetic component, and this very real case is overshadowed by the myriad of other more powerful factors.
