well we never tested all of humanity, so we can't say for sure
when you get a large enough sample, it can be said to be representative
i disagree that that is always the case
however we can clearly say that the average african is dragged down substantionally due to Africa being far behind in educational support for its people
you cant always determine some things... no matter how big the sample is
you can actually
sample sizes merely refine the numbers
I learnt this trying to work out random binary compression techniques back in college
It's always been based on culture and region, hasn't it?
yes
and education
and twin studies where you take babies out of their culture and place them in another, and see the result, and compare it to the other twin and its enviroment
same genes expressed differently in different environs
with some things its like trying to work out a fingerprint by taking an average of lots of people .. you can have a sample size of the whole world - its not going to tell you anything
either you don't know what the word "average" means, or you're simply wrong
i dono, could you predicts finger print patterns based on genetic data of the parents
no
i dono if you can inherit that shit
where else does the construction information come from though
is it cultural?
even with the same DNA
you can still establish an average with that
while IQ is pretty connected to genes, I don't think the differences in race are due to genetics, and that culture plays a large role there. That is because IQ scores have risen in the last 100 years by a lot which shows it's not just a race thing
if it's clear that we "don't know", then wouldn't the best thing to do is to figure out how we could possibly make that correlation?
aye here it is
finger prints are different, but the patterns are similar
yeah whorls loops etc
ha cool
i actually never knew this
personally I think human intelligence is like physical ability. everyone has varying capability, different races have different capabilities on average, some have it in good quality some don't, etc.
both your thumbs are different in finger print too
but who knows for sure until you start looking into it
even though they follow the same genetic code
Wouldn't surprise me one bit if intelligence is bred into/out of family trees.
the best thing to say without a clear method is "I don't know"
Shit is going down between Israel and Syria https://twitter.com/QalaatAlMudiq/status/994333803048062978
you could predict a finger print when it comes to whorls and ridges, based off of the genetic information
not in detail though
that is enviroment
even with a clear method you can't say, its the scientific method,
You make an assumption (hypothesis)
Test it, and see what comes out
If it correlates with what you expected, and happens every time, you have scientific evidence
