@Leet lil buddy

2019-12-18 09:30:18 UTC  

That's it. Chapters 5 and 6 are what looked good to me

2019-12-18 09:31:08 UTC  

you may be interested

2019-12-18 09:34:20 UTC  

fuck is it?

2019-12-18 09:34:24 UTC  

Maybe

2019-12-18 09:34:30 UTC  

I'm reading some of the controversy surrounding it but

2019-12-18 09:37:29 UTC  

"...overall correlation of .30 of brain size to intelligence..."

2019-12-18 09:37:35 UTC  

lmao

That paper is single author though. J. Phillipe Rushton... I'll check and see if he's credible (or been shit on by the community)

2019-12-18 09:41:10 UTC  

Meh. Psychology is pretty shit so... I'm just gonna hold out for more from neurology, neuropsychology, and empirics

2019-12-18 09:43:19 UTC  

There's a lot of bias in this controversy so it's basically awash

2019-12-18 09:45:27 UTC  

@sydtko its regarding goulds criticism of psychometrics its written by a philosopher of science

2019-12-18 09:45:59 UTC  

I'm aware of quite a lot of the critiques but meh

2019-12-18 09:50:57 UTC  

this is a novel contribution not making the same arguments

2019-12-18 09:52:23 UTC  

Yeah, I see that it is recent, but I dunno if/when I'll read the whole paper

2019-12-18 10:05:48 UTC  

@Deleted User 6a019ab66177 why are you posting people?

2019-12-18 10:07:10 UTC  

Nice debunked book @sydtko

2019-12-18 10:07:30 UTC  
2019-12-18 10:10:37 UTC  

@Deleted User Gizmo was talking about it so I looked it up... I wouldn't say it's all debunked but yeah, he did not put forward a holistic or honest analysis without bias. Gould cherry picked and no doubt in my mind Charles Murray cherry picked

2019-12-18 10:11:07 UTC  

I was memeing tbh

2019-12-18 10:11:17 UTC  

But if was responded to

2019-12-18 10:11:22 UTC  

So...... that leaves me back in the skeptical boat
I believe brain size most likely will have some impact on your potential g-factor...
And you can isolate that by legit chopping up people's brains, but I don't think it's one of the more important factors

2019-12-18 10:11:27 UTC  

It was, yes...

2019-12-18 10:11:28 UTC  

By murrady and what's his name

2019-12-18 10:11:49 UTC  

There was a recent study claiming glial cells and lots of genes were important as well to g factor

2019-12-18 10:11:56 UTC  

Charles Murray and Richard Lynn?

2019-12-18 10:12:02 UTC  

They're both ... very biased

2019-12-18 10:12:46 UTC  

And most moronic race realists ignore that ***rolled into the definition of hereditary is your childhood upbringing*** and heavy elements of your SES

2019-12-18 10:13:30 UTC  

So if you were at all honest about the memes underlying genetics... you'd want equivalent SES to see how distinctions arise (socialism)
Equivalent material conditions aside genetics

2019-12-18 10:13:38 UTC  

Have you read into this?

2019-12-18 10:13:47 UTC  

Quite a bit over a long while, yes

I've been interested in IQ since like ... 16 and I'm 31, so

2019-12-18 10:15:19 UTC  

And anyone actually having paid attention to it ought realize it's getting more and more complex with more discovery
Because epigenetics, optogenetics and neuropsychology are basically entirely new fields

2019-12-18 10:15:21 UTC  

Wait you're 31
