Two men dumb enough to think it makes them smarter:
“Academics in the UK claim their research shows that men are more intelligent than women.
A study to be published later this year in the British Journal of Psychology says that men are on average five points ahead on IQ tests.
Paul Irwing and Professor Richard Lynn claim the difference grows when the highest IQ levels are considered.”
As Chris says, what’s the point?
IQ is totally bogus, as if the fact that Philip Schofield inflicts them on BBC1 viewers on Saturday evenings isn’t proof enough. Anyone who’s good under test conditions, and has done a couple of these tests will have learnt the techniques required (which barely change), and will have an advantage over people who are more intelligent than educated. I’ve no doubt that different groups will perform differently, and maybe that signifies something (perhaps even ‘ability to prosper in a Western economy’), but not intelligence in the sense of one’s immutable mental capacity.
And you dump enough to reject a study ,just because it’s different from your viewpoint.
Yeah, that’s exactly my style, reshad.
