TLDR: Average human female animals value "pet like" traits for their offspring. This is important because of the rise of designer babies.

http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0191886917304865

142 mothers of 0–12 month old infants were asked to select from each of the Big Five personality traits the facets that they most liked their child to have. Afterwards, mothers rank-ordered the facets they had selected and ‘intelligence’ from most to least important for their child to have. Less than 10% of mothers rated intelligence and the conscientiousness facet as most important. By contrast, 51% rated the extraversion facet as most important, followed by 20% of mothers who favoured the agreeableness facet. Our results suggest that mothers preferred extraversion over intelligence and conscientiousness, despite their strong, empirically demonstrated predictive validity for important life outcomes.

I believe this was a big thing in psychology around 30 years ago.
A notable discovery was that western societies, especially Burgerland, favour extrovert and individualistic traits.
Asian cultures generally favour quiet and modest personality traits that easily fit in society.

TLDR: This research has no new implications and is overall pretty shit, even compared to other studies in psychology.

1) Of course extroversion is prized the most.

2) Intelligence might correlate with high income, BUT high income is not a guarantee of reproductive success. There are lots of high earners, autistic types, who never have children. Meanwhile there are people with less wealth, but who are more extroverted, who are reproductively successful.

You see this in African-Americans - they earn less but they're still reproductively successful.

3) "Kinda hard to increase their IQ" - I disagree. While I am sure there are some biological factors in IQ, I am also sure that upbringing is a key part, and mostly I think one of the most important factors in IQ tests is whether the person being tested WANTS to do well.

If you're an extroverted person, a loud-mouthed person, very outgoing, perhaps even physically aggressive or a bully, then what reason do you have to do well on an IQ test? Why put in the mental effort to do well? Those sorts of people can't be arsed to do well on an IQ test. They think "fuck this, I don't need this, I can make my way in life by being outgoing / extroverted / physically dominant / etc."

Hope I managed to educate you here.

>> No.9133141

>>9133130
So basically to sum this up, of course extroversion is the most important, because it's arguably the most important trait for reproductive success.

Intelligence might do well on metrics like earnings, but earnings are not necessarily representative of reproductive success. There are lots of criminals, loud-mouthed people, etc., who never earn lots, but they have lots of children. Meanwhile there are many intelligent people who fail to have children.

Reproductive success is the most important thing for every animal, every organism on the planet. So that's why people prize extroversion over everything else.

Fortune favours the brave. Those who dare win. This is why boldness, confidence, extroversion, are so important.

Humans are just animals after all. Intelligence, success, and earnings to me seem more closely related to individual survival than reproduction. These days with tech advancements individual survival is much easier. A focus on behavioral traits seemingly more suited to reproductive viability (extraversion, agreeability, etc) would be the most logical adaptation. It's quite literally what all of our grandfathers pissed and moaned about in regards to technology making us dumber.

In this day and age, being "intelligent" is fucking easy. There's tons of universities, the state even pays you to go (maybe not in the US, but here in Europe we get state-sponsored tuition). It doesn't require guts or bravery or anything particularly special to be "intelligent" in our modern age.

>A focus on behavioral traits seemingly more suited to reproductive viability (extraversion, agreeability, etc) would be the most logical adaptation.
Exactly - although I disagree about agreeability - for a male at least, agreeability will probably *negatively* affect your chances of reproduction. Chicks don't want guys that are too highly agreeable.

This is probably one reason why fewer males are going to university now. They realise that it might not be in their best reproductive interests.

You have to add "I think" before you make a claim because you know they're bullshit. There's no room for opinion, all that you said is bullshit. IQ becomes increasingly inheritable as you eliminate SES disabilities, this means that unless your kid grows up malnourished and in some shitty ghetto his IQ will be determined mainly by his genetics.

It's a gross mis-extrapolation to say that extroverts can't have a high IQ. Loud-mouthed people can be good speakers, and aggressive people make good lawyers & businessmen. It's like you're only familiar with kids and people who never grew up. Not surprising in today's climate, but still, extroverted people do most definitely have a place among the mensans.

People love to cite twin studies. Firstly, twins being separated at birth is an anomaly. Therefore, the dataset is far too small to come to any reasonable conclusions.

Second, when people are adopted, they tend to get adopted by a similar type of person. 2 family home, dual income, no criminal record etc. etc. They don't just let anybody adopt, so the twins, albeit growing in different environments, grow in similar environments.

Further, as previously stated, environmental factors ARE NOT LIMITED TO SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS! Environmental factors can be incredibly subtle and hard to detect by the layman.

Ex) during infancy if a baby lives in a city, the babies IQ will be lower than its suburban counterpart because of copious amounts of ambient sound in the city babies environment ( cars honking, garbage truck picking up trash, car accidents, people arguing etc. ) all this background noise stifles an infants cognitive development.

What do you expect? Women lie about what attracts them to make themselves look more appealing to men who can get them more than welfare checks. Combine that with how women only really have close to two decades of reliable fertility (and in turn, desirability among the top men) and you have much lying.
