aka if you have less genes that result is less smarts, even putting you in a rich household will not make you just as smart as the other people in the same kind of households
rather yet, if you want more high IQ people, the best solution is to let rich people adopts the highest IQ babies
over the less high IQ ones
they will be more successful as a result (on average)
and benefit society as a whole more
how does one measure the IQ of a baby?
like i said earlier
IQ is a measurement of general inteligence
so you make the babies compete in cognitive tasks
for example
yes, but like what? can it find the tit on its own?
nah thats all nurture pretty much, they can suck tiddy from the getgo
they can also grasp from the getgo
at what age do these tests count?
as soon as they can do a trick pretty much
there are some tricks we all learn as babies
like object permanence
the faster a baby understands object permanence, the higher its IQ is projected to be, if it does not eat any lead paint while growing up
although its IQ will likely still be higher then those that understand object permanence later, and consume the same amount of lead paint
on average
a other more simpler test
is to put a lil sticky ball on the forhead of the baby, that it cant sense cause of weight of feeling or anything
and then put the baby infront of a mirror
if the baby swats away the ball using his reflection, he understands the "mirror trick"
the faster a baby learns that, the higher its IQ
first word is another one
now here is a question: does the IQ of when you are an adult ever matter when trying to figure out the likely intelligence range of their kid?
you meaure IQ based on age anyway all the time
you dont compare babies to adults ofcourse
the average baby IQ is 100, just liket he average adult
in general IQ stays static save brain injuries or malnurishment etc etc
till you are about 30, then it decreases
but if 20-50% is nurture, then the IQ of when they are an adult ends up not being helpful when trying to figure out the potential IQ range of their child
the differences become bigger the older you get, and people that excercise less, their IQ drops more
not true grenade
it is helpful
then it is not genetics
its partially genetics
unless that nurture is changing their genetics
between 50 and 80% of it is genetics
