I've proven they have
which studies specifically account for the factors mentioned above
Why do you need to control for any factors to say that they have different IQs?
because if the iqs are due to environment than genetic, then one can make the argument that it is not the black peoples fault for the worst outcomes when interacting with police
The testing shows they do whether it's genetic or not is a different discussion
no its not
and you know it
Show me anything that says on average blacks and asian and whites and latinos don't have average IQ differences
@Cantwell
Does IQ even matter lmao
Yes
why
It's the most stastically powerful construct in all of social science
what does IQ represent, and why does the flynn effect here doesn't apply here, how has IQ been influential in the past
It predicts everything to some degree in terms of income and life outcomes
you say it's "statistically powerful" in a field full of anti-empirical analysis
kind of funny you using that vapid argument
it isn't a empirical analysis, or even a statistical one as it has never been actually 100% fully correlated to a static body of data
it's why IQ so flawed as "STATISTICAL" analysis
it's a possible "measurement" not a way to analyze a group
What are you saying about the flynn effect?
it can't and isn't directly analyzing a static body of data *ever* and is never able to analyze it with other factors *ever*
it's why IQ is a joke in trying to prove "intelligence" in huge groups of people, whether they be litigated in a social, class, nation, or race level.
What do you think intelligence is?
there, that's another question it can't ask or even try to prove
its multifaceted and incredibly hard to define much less quantify
there are several different types of intelligence
What do you mean it can't ask?
emotional, interpersonal, logical, musical, bodily kinisthetic
Do you know what g is?
general intelligence yes
even so, there is no universally accepted way to quantify it
and what does that prove?
^ i kind of disagree with this too though.
I think it's generally useless to try to prove a measure of intelligence, trying to say "THERE CAN BE INTELLIGENCE ITS A TANGIBLE AND MEASURABLE THING" is a losing argument
you can't prove it
🤔
all this started because you said that black peoples lower intelligence contributes to poor behavior which leads to mistreatment during police interactions
and even thats a lie when you look at studies
@Cantwell what is intelligence in a person with various mental deficiencies
black people are several times more likely to be stopped and searched for example, despite being less likely to have contraband
It is the composite score of their different scores on various IQ subtests
