Caucasian can also be used to refer to a member of a given racial group
Ronald Wilson presented the first clear and compelling evidence that the heritability of IQ increases with age. We propose to call the phenomenon 'The Wilson Effect' and we document the effect diagrammatically with key twin and adoption studies, including twins reared apart, that have been carried out at various ages and in a large number of different settings. The results show that the heritability of IQ reaches an asymptote at about 0.80 at 18-20 years of age and continuing at that level well into adulthood. In the aggregate, the studies also confirm that shared environmental influence decreases across age, approximating about 0.10 at 18-20 years of age and continuing at that level into adulthood. These conclusions apply to the Westernized industrial democracies in which most of the studies have been carried out.
This study shows that the effect environment has on IQ is extremely minimal
Are African-Americans, with ancestry in certain African areas, placed higher on the IQ scale than the people who live in the nations of the same areas today?
How do you explain the white people who aren't caucasian, the Urgrics who live in Europe, the Hungarians
If so, how did this change happen in such a short time?
you're assuming white and black americans share the same environiment
also this is from 1992
anybody want to discuss in the voice chat with a moderator?
can we get a study from this century?
@Mal Negroids from the Congo region have an IQ between 56 to 65, while the ones from the surrounding Savannah habitats have an IQ that is 70 on average
so race obviously not a factor.
is this the same for those in the US who have ancestry from that region? Or has there been no studies done on something like that?
Once again, were not denying it, we just don't care about it.
if people can make a 40 IQ point gap just by going to a different country then the 10-15 point gap average between races is laregly irrelevant
again, by your own metrics, the japanese and the jews are the master race
@radeon The whole point of the study was that they tested the IQs of black children adopted into upper middle-class white families, and while there was a minor positive effect on intelligence during early years, by the time they were 17-18 years old, their IQ was the same as the average black average, which proves that IQ is a genetic trait.
it isn't proof, its evidence
it won't be proof until you prove that correlation equals causation
The substance of the study still remains the exact same. IQ is genetic and environment has little to do with it
And what are you sugesting we do
an individual study, yes, but that isn't *proof*
I'm not suggesting anything, just pointing out the obvious reality of the situtation
obvious reality
IQ is not the sole metric for racial quality obviously
I don't agree
I can find plenty of studies supporting young earth creationism, but theres also a mountain of peer-reviewed studies that explicitly disprove it
not from what you've shown us so far
at least
@BrianBoru I never claimed that
Go ahead and find those creationism studies
Charles I know
Radeon implied that you did
i'm waiting for the melanin causes violent tendancies hot take
Idiotic surface level understanding of racial differences
#NotJustSkinColor
Low IQ and higher levels of testosterone in blacks contribute to their disproportionate rates of violent crime @radeon
Not melanin
how does low IQ cause crime, directly?
🤦🏻
