good would be many thousand over diverse populations

2019-12-04 02:55:04 UTC  

Fundamentally, intelligence is too broad as a concept. Until the predicate stops being vague,there are going to problems with testing for it

2019-12-04 02:55:10 UTC  

Because if you don't know what you're testing for...

2019-12-04 02:55:25 UTC  

at least that would be saying *something*

2019-12-04 02:55:29 UTC  

Coincidentally, this is something you can see if you try to test linguistic IQ.

2019-12-04 02:55:46 UTC  

My claim is that introversion would only be correlated negatively with Europeans and Asian. If you do it over different populations, I predict for a different result.

2019-12-04 02:56:20 UTC  

well 'europeans and asians' is a much more broad category than some female students at one university

2019-12-04 02:56:20 UTC  

Wierzbicka and her Sapir-Worf-derived hypothesis of linguistic primes - basic linguistic concepts that exist in human languages universally - is unknown or ignored in almost any test (all I know of, anyway) that measures linguistic IQ.

2019-12-04 02:56:34 UTC  

This would create an obvious problem across cultures and languages.

2019-12-04 02:57:32 UTC  

Have you heard of the sorites paradox, Hector?

2019-12-04 02:57:42 UTC  

It exists entirely thanks to vague predicates as such.

2019-12-04 02:57:46 UTC  

I really don't know what to say in response other than get more studies.

2019-12-04 02:57:54 UTC  

same

2019-12-04 02:57:55 UTC  

No.

2019-12-04 02:57:58 UTC  

I have not heard of that paradox.

2019-12-04 02:57:59 UTC  

<:hyperbrainlet:641878745631817738>

2019-12-04 02:58:04 UTC  

It is only able to exist because there is no concrete definition of a pile of sand.

2019-12-04 02:58:05 UTC  

get more studies

2019-12-04 02:58:08 UTC  

lol

2019-12-04 02:58:11 UTC  

that's what I'm saying

2019-12-04 02:58:17 UTC  

right now there's no evidence

2019-12-04 02:58:23 UTC  

If you have a clear definition of a "pile of sand", you can't have this paradox.

2019-12-04 02:58:26 UTC  

so its about 99.99% speculation

2019-12-04 02:58:42 UTC  

It is, as a result, just a confirmation of Wittgenstein's critique of philosophy: it's all just linguistic confusion.

2019-12-04 02:58:44 UTC  

A pile of sand is two or more grains. 😎

2019-12-04 02:58:49 UTC  

The question being asked is categorically incorrect.

2019-12-04 02:59:01 UTC  

Paradox solved.

2019-12-04 02:59:03 UTC  

Really, you are telling me in a way that I am interpreting the data in correctly with false premises. I wonder if they even have a study that fulfill your conditions for evidence.

2019-12-04 02:59:11 UTC  

"Does intelligence scale with extraversion?" is incorrect as a *question* unless you have a concrete and workable definition of intelligence.

2019-12-04 02:59:27 UTC  

@Slavic Infidel based and empiricistpilled

2019-12-04 02:59:37 UTC  

And no.

2019-12-04 02:59:38 UTC  

(and of extraversion)

2019-12-04 02:59:47 UTC  

You can interpret all you like out of my argument, but the essence of it is this:

2019-12-04 03:00:02 UTC  

You have to get a clear and reliable definition of the traits being evaluated.

2019-12-04 03:00:17 UTC  

Or you get the "IQ tests only measure your ability to take IQ tests" problem.

2019-12-04 03:00:47 UTC  

If you think I'm just having a dab on you, I haven'teven broken out the epistemology

2019-12-04 03:02:28 UTC  

holy, getting a study, might as well one that meets your conditions is hard. I will keep looking.

2019-12-04 03:05:11 UTC  

I have a pretty high verbal IQ but a pretty low typing IQ and a pretty medium smoke signal IQ.

2019-12-04 03:06:31 UTC  

By the way, have you ever heard of a guy named "Biker"? @Slavic Infidel

2019-12-04 03:06:42 UTC  

He used to have a pfp like yours, with the same guy.
