if you're just there taking a test though, are you really thinking about how to absolutely crush this test into the dirt?
that's just that one aspect. there's other elements, too (which I think have their own ways of being handled). ex. those people who freeze when it comes to taking tests
the data shows that the more intelligent you are the more likely it is you will crush a test
pretty much every competence related task is "g loaded"
which means higher in general intelligence people complete it better/faster
general intelligence is measured with an IQ test
thats why its an intelligence quoefficient
also I wonder things like the level of their general intelligence vs being motivated, or working with things they're intimately familiar with
yes, but this is why you have to take large samples
if 1/10 people are affected by it, then you can still say with 90% confidence the rest aren't
well, I didn't mean that in terms of how it affects general IQ, but rather.. if you accounted for those elements as if they were a separate IQ, what would the differences between those two scores be
per individual, massive
for a sample size, it becomes less significant
the larger your average, the less influence a single outlier has
i mean its the "outlying statistic" argument
If 1 person earns 1,000,000 dollar per month
and 1,000,000 people earn 1 dollar per month,
The average of the 1,000,001 sample you took will be just above 1
this is why sample sizes absolutely matter
cuz if you have a sample of 2 people
1 person earns 1,000,000
1 person earns 0
The "average" person earns 500,000
im off to bed gn
not getting enough sleep decreases IQ!
unless my math is wrong, in your first example the answer would be pretty much 2
that double what most people would have
its 0:21 at night here i cba to go specific, i was making a broad example of how sample sizes affect the "average"
you be better off with a modal average in that situation
ah, only 23:23 here 😛
but my original point way in the start was that i dont see the sense in "race iq" being so touchy, but thats because i don't have a motive behind it.
If there is no difference in race IQ, then great, its proven and nothing more to talk about
If there IS a difference, then meh who cares anyway because they're still human, and the average doesn't apply to the individual
My problem is that the people who claim there is no correlation are vermently opposed to proving their claim
so a few days ago they spot the ISIS leader baghdadi ... and now they capture 5 ISIS commanders
gud
also, trump is related to Everquest now?
srsly, am i going insane? 😛
my point on that tho... was that you cant prove there's no difference .. and cant prove it means anything
basically... race IQ = God
cant prove it exists .. or that it has any meaning
well you can prove it, if the averages are repeatedly around the same value with like a value smaller than say 5 on IQ scale, you can prove that on average there is no difference
and also cant prove it doesnt exist
i like to say this,
when a black man with a 200IQ comes into your buisness and asks you for a job, and you dont hire him cause of his race's average IQ, your polly arrent asian
and now im off to bed for reals
I wouldn't care, what matters is if he's qualified for the job really 😛 a person with an IQ of 300 but gender studies, isn't going to fly an airplane for me
supposedly IQs over 170 are not measured
