To all the people calling Trump stupid. You don't have to like him, you don't have to agree with him, you could justifiably call him ignorant on some subjects (not unlike everyone else), or even call him evil, if you wish, but it is rather self evident that he is not stupid.
Nigerians who make it to the US are normally in the top 5%, mostly middle class and university graduates - they aren't really representative of the wider Nigerian population.
Asian Americans are often smart & successful, but that's largely affected by immigration policies over the past decades. America wasn't exactly taking in the uneducated peasant farmers in large numbers. There are reasons for everything if you follow the data & don't just accept the first information you see.
@@dwindeyer Nigeria's GDP per capita is less than $2000, so very few Nigerians can actually afford the Visa processing fees, cost of plane tickets and money to support themselves in the US for a couple of months before they find their feet. Those who can are either highly educated, come from wealthy families or run successful businesses back home; a recipe for success.
@@MrOkadaman28 I don't agree with this line of reasoning. There's no evidence that people who occupy the top echelons of a society have inherent cognitive advantages over others. They may have accumulated wealth through war, political position or even athletics. Amassing wealth alone puts your children in strong positions to succeed via access to education, job opportunities, home-life stability etc. No matter the initial source of your wealth, your children will have advantages that'll allow them to become doctors, engineers and other professionals. Those same people will then have the money to buy visas. Measuring innate intelligence is an almost impossible practice in futility. There are too many variables that can't be controlled for.

@ That's great, IQ isn't the be all/end all but if you took 100 successful people in fields like STEM I would imagine most of them would test high IQ wise. There are other factors but at the same time IQ is relevant. You're not going to find a physicist or a brain surgeon with an 80 IQ. People always have to tiptoe around the subject of IQ because races have different averages and no one wants to be accused of being a racist but it's a fact that as a whole races are better at some things and worse at others when compared to each other. You use CEOs as an example but the type of person who would want to be a CEO plays more into it than IQ IMO. Take something like the American Presidency the first basic requirement to be President is you have to want to be President in the first place and most people simply do not want the job. I would never want to have that much power and responsibility and scrutiny. I have a hard time understanding why anyone would. But people like George Bush prove you don't have to be all that smart to be President. Hell, Biden has early signs of dementia, can't even speak properly anymore without a teleprompter and there's a very good chance he'll be our next President. To be a CEO you first have to WANT to be a CEO which has nothing to do with IQ. People are drawn to positions of power by a number of personality traits. You mention mental illness etc but things like autism also play into success in certain fields. There have been many cases of people with autism who excel in their fields but have problems with other basic aspects of life.
I have an IQ of 130. I’m also a complete and utter failure lol. At times it can be depressing because I’m just intelligent enough to know that I don’t know anything.
Why is it that the people who are so ready to embrace positive stereotypes and abilities are so quick to dismiss the negative? Can't have one without the other.
i guess that's why i have a soft spot for greek mythology, so much more relatable with their human vices, even their gods weren't without flaws and the early days of pyschology, the germans were very good at exploring the dark side of human nature aswell, without lettiing it get in the way of the positive sides kind of what makes good characters in stories too dumbing things down to just good and bad is a gross oversimplification that does not do the complexity of humans justice personallhy i feel worthless as a musician most the time, but people around me stick feathers up my ass over it, oh how subjective things can be lol
Saucy Jk stereotypes always have some form of truth to them in my opinion but basing our entire opinion on someone and essentially making up a life for someone simply based off their ethnicity, color, religion etc is a dangerous way of thinking that allows for hate and inequality to harbor.

The biggest problem people have is assuming whatever they know is definitely "right" and being unwilling to accept updated information or alternative points of view.
We do not need to quantify it at all. As pointed out in the vid standardized tests are for specific types of information. We have similar tests for every subject. There is no reason to test a world class musician in physics, and vice versa. The only reason it is an issue is because of all the people crying descrimination, we needed a way to prove that there are other reasons for differences.
Curiosity and an acceptance of alternative views is actually a sign of low intelligence. Just talk to someone that looks at "Dr.Seby" as someone that knows what they are talking about and not a fraud. Gullibility doesnt equal intelligence, quite the contrary.
Good officers only need two traits-empathty and tactical inteligence. It is true that those with higher general inteligence will on average have higher tactical intelignece, but one does not neccesitate the other. Officers without empathy have mutinies. Officers without tactical inteligence get men killed. Officers that dont understand quantum physics could have either, both, or neither. Regardless there are many things we did 100 years ago we stopped doing because we found something better.
Jeff Palmer well in the game of life it's all about money and considering Eric is worth 100m and went to Harvard with a low IQ while Jordan is worth 5 M..

when is was 11 years old everyone was under the impression i was an idiot, myself included...so the school had my mother take me to a child psychologist and do an IQ test...ironically, i scored pretty high, like 138...the school didn't believe it and made me take another one and i scored even higher, in the 140's...it turns out i just had a bad case of ADD, coupled with inept parenting and poor schooling...i definitely "slipped through the cracks" as far as my early education went
@Chopped Wood i wouldn't give THAT particular test much weight haha. Degree in maths and physics AND a PhD in CS? You gotta take another one mate you might be 120+ or smth.
@After Math it is true. I scored an average of 167 if I took out the tests that involved changing colors. I'm pretty badly colorblind so on those I scored quite low and my overall average dropped 30 points. So who knows exactly why he'd score lower, but it's definitely possible. Edit: IQ tests absolutely don't matter though, it's just an indicator you're capable or recognizing patterns and some critical thinking. I'm not a legendary scientist nor have I contributed the first thing to science, but I have incredible pattern memorization and short term memory. One of the ones I did the best on was the Simon Says style test and the word memory but the color wheels I did was absolutely abysmal. I think IQ is an indicator of ability to think, not how smart you actually are though.
@@OfLastingThunder Dude that's a stupid point, I'm obviously not talking about impairments. My point is that there is no way Eric wouldn't score high in the logic/deduction part of an IQ test.
@After Math Depends. Most IQ tests are entirely visual, not conceptual. So he could be really good at applying reasoning and deduction in real world scenarios, but not on an image that's mostly pattern recognition. IQ tests are mostly BS.
I see the spelling thing as more of a skill that you hone and not a problem with information processing. It's like making your signals. I never fail signalling right leaving a roundabout. From my observations, most people fail at signaling the exit. Is it because I process information better? No. I failed a lot too until I decided to train myself not to, so I started a process where I paid extra attention in that circumstance, even forcing myself to signal when it wasn't necessary, because there was no one else around. At some point it crossed a threshold where it became automatic, and I never failed since. I don't even have to think about it anymore. Typing correctly is the same kind of thing.

My school tests kids. It doesn't call them IQ tests but they are similar. From what I can see (15+ years of doing it), the results match what the kids can/cannot do in school. Useful for helping kids with what they need. Some low achievers in school do very well afterwards, many do not fare so well.
I truly believe some kids are late bloomers iq wise the same way some get tall or big later. Also diet, I'm much smarter now than in HS. Turns out I'm allergic to gluten and dairy and I don't handle fat well and that's what i ate all my life. I was a zombie in highschool, it absolutely affected my IQ how tf you supposed to have a high IQ whilst half asleep with no concentration or energy. Many many kids are in similar situations
@@clarencekaant8005 Absolutely. When it comes to the fat ,that is because you were perhaps not eating the right animal fats but ate other fats plus the ones you were allergic to. Most people have horrible diets today, due to absolutely zero knowledge in biochemistry and the fastfood chains. Vegans growing in numbers just add to this problem. High carb like wheat/oats and sugars+ high vegetable intake of types like potatoes, peas + too much fried foods+ too much coffee and fruit juices = the worst possible combination (farthest away from the "paleo-lowcarb", which was the diet humans naturally evolved with). If people take too much of antibiotics this changes the natural intestinal bacteria environment and can be one of the major sources of ulcers and stommach disorders. Regarding meat types ,for most bloodtypes/lineages ,the cattle meat, whale, moose/deer and ptarmigan are healthier than pork and farm chicken. But only as boiled in water. There are several new science projects releasing these conclusions these years.

@@schlomoshekelstein908 The "average" IQ does not differ greatly between males and females and I think what they are trying to suggest is that if you pick out a random female and a random male from a population of people there is a higher probability that the female will be somewhere around the average line in terms of IQ while with males, due to the greater width of the bell curve that probability is less evident and the chances of picking out and outlier are greater
@@ThreeDaysOfDan IQ has fallen for men the last 30 year, at least in Norway. School and society is focusing on women to succeed, while men are becoming hikikomori all around the globe. Equality is not good goal if is at the detriment of our society.
Schlomo Shekelstein that’s true actually, men and women have the same average score but women have a steady curve that bottoms out at low and high IQ’s while men top off at high and low IQ’s. In other words most women you meet will be the same while the dumbest and smartest people you’ll meet are men. But of course there are a few outliers. We studied this in my psych class I hated it but I always think about it.
The only reason someone would try to censor this discussion is if they're afraid of the truth. Anyone who _actually_ believes there is no correlation between these two variables would obviously want the data gathered, the proof published and the matter discussed. So if I hear a woke person saying we can't talk about this, I can only conclude that they are pretty sure there are differences after all. Me, I doubt there's a difference in reality, but if there is, we should probably address it.
@@danzemacabre8899 im referring to the difference of metaphysical intelligence. not physical characteristics/intelligence which are prone to change through evolution. different geography, climate may impact what decisions and solutions are made through that intelligence, but the intelligence of a human is, more often than not, influenced by different circumstances detirmined by their culture/society not the climate.
If we do the science based on a shotty understanding and get what we feared, then we just put out a fire with gasoline. We need to understand what intelligence really is before we can progress this. So it’s going to be more debate or whatever till we get neurallinl in here
@@cjfoster5034 I'd say economic as well as cultural. I'd venture that many who are simply poor won't do as well on avg.

And you can be smart with the things you need to know for your environment (at least to a degree), but one's ability to see patterns, imply relationships and take up new material easily is the sign of intelligence. Then again, I've seen a few PhD's who are great in their focus field, but gawd awful on so many other areas of life.
@Cynical Frenchface In that way whites are the most negatively looked upon race right now instead of having actually lower number of bad sides than any other race.
"We are all souls, we have to figure out dignity, and we have to figure out some system by which we can live with this increased level of knowledge" I couldn't agree more! The data will grow, it's unstoppable. And as it reveals our differences we need to have a plan to prevent repeating the prejudices of the past.
The relevant metric is "intergroup" difference is greater than intra-group. The difference between individuals ignores group entirely. So not pertinent to the SJW insanity. (Yes I fully realized we are "individuals" )
Also, didn't The Bell Curve said something along the lines of "dumb people are simply unlucky and deserve dignity"? Weinstein said he didn't have the answer, but the answer is right there: treat all humans with dignity.
Yes women have higher intelligence, it was scientifically proven. I’m not sure if the study was based solely on IQ or included other forms of intelligence. But this deluded conversation wreaks of sexism
They both say they don't care that much about this subject. Why wouldn't anybody be interested in this? It is a fascinating subject. I suspect that they shy away from it, not because it's not interesting, but because it's controversial.
I don't care about IQ, other than how it can be used to improve the world. Ex. Does dividing people into groups of how fast they learn a positive thing or a negative thing? If you learn things quickly, should you be held back to the standards of people who learn much slower than you meaning you're wasting your time? If you learn things slower than others, should you be introduced to things at a pace that makes it impossible for you to keep up, resulting in your education being a waste of time where you'll learn to hate school? That's what IQ was made for. To improve the experience of all students. Not as a way to dehumanize anyone.
Jonathan Beedell Only reality is the judge of that. So I don't say your concerns are unfounded, but if I were to reason with you, I'd ask you "What made you come to that conclusion?". But I don't think this is the forum for such a complex discussion. I could try to argue against your point. Any instance of dividing people into groups, there are many more divisions that come naturally, based on a multitude of characteristics that have no ill effects. But like what you were pointing out, it would not address the questions I am wondering about. - Would students fare better, if the speed of which they were presented with new material matched their ability to grasp it? - Is there a variability in aptitude and interest between different students? And lastly, the least important question: - Is IQ a the best way to assess aptitude for learning certain kinds of things? Which is only relevant to answer, because IQ is one of the things they talked about. If you want to know my thoughts on what would be the best, here they are: I probably think that choice would rather be the better method. Letting students choose what they want to study. If that is to learn a trade and start working at 15 or to spend all of their days studying mathematics or whatever attracts their interest. I do not believe that you can gain anything useful by forcing people to learn anything. You can only convince them that learning certain things is useful for the desires they want to realize.
@@Me-by8qi i believe that the downside of the last bit you wrote is that you're going to have a tiny part of kids that are actively going to finish schools with the prerequisites that are required to get into a University. I believe that's what middle school is all about... The more intelligent kids receive more and complex information to process so the odds of them being able to complete higher education increases.
Ian Diederen That's a valid concern, and one I have considered. It might be preferable if we weren't limited by the choices when you were young. But there's also a potential downside to not limiting yourself. Otherwise we wouldn't be able to specialize. There's also the arguments of wanting responsible citizens that know history and about the world etc. My concern is that forcing people to do things that they have not been convinced are useful for their aim is not conducive to producing self driven people with a love of learning.
@@Me-by8qi i all honesty my view of IQ has been torn to shreds and how the education system is currently implemented does make me wonder about a lot of things you've adressed and the variables are immense. My perception of middle school was that the entire system was just to show you a bit of everything... I used to be a fan of a particular topic and i got straight 9/10's on every test or exam because i loved it. This was also in line what i decided to study after i graduated. The rest i really couldn't be bothered as long as i didn't fail the tests. In Amerika i believe they look at the entire point average to decide if you're allowed into college or not, which imo seems stupid that if you don't want to do something with math or history you're still going to have to get good Grades on that. Might be just 1 example of many but i can't really believe that you're going to let kids of certain age, let's say 12, decide that they're allowed to just do the stuff they want to do. When i was 12 i wanted to make video games, be a marine biologist and be a docter. I can't immagine kids teaching that to themselfs before the age 18, let alone having teachers available to guide them. Again, don't get me wrong, on the most part agree with your way of thinking! I'm just nitpicking and brainstorming about possible downsides. I haven't ever thought so much about education and the flaws of curreny society so my thoughts probably lack a lot of factors that should also be taking in condideration xd
This is a very clear misunderstanding of how IQ functions Creativity is separate from how psychology measures IQ, even if common people use terms like genius for people who are creative or score highly on IQ tests And IQ does measure MULTIPLE aspects of cognition, it measures working memory, visual/spatial memory, fluid and crystal intelligence etc. This is hearsay from people who just don’t know much about these tests It’s one of the best, most consistent and accurate measures we have today and shouldn’t be dismissed
Mr. Freeze IQ tests do indeed test the indicators you listed, but you make the supposition that this denotes intelligence. IQ tests miss out a plethora of measurable intelligence indicators e.g short term memory, verbal agility and reasoning. Read “Fractionating Human Intelligence” by Hampshire, Highfield et al. for an excellent study on the fallacy of IQ testing.
TheMysticMoor I’m simply invested in good information People are complex, so while your friend may have dyslexia and might suffer in some areas The test would also simply indicate his intelligence in other areas
We have to get to the point that when other groups of individuals are talked about, whether on social media or in a research paper, we all know and they know , that it is done with utmost compassion and respect for them as a group, and as individuals.
The book "the bell curve" is not about "race & IQ". There is a small chapter that also treats that, but mainly it is about the differences between the top and bottom FOR ALL PEOPLE, ALL GROUPs. The trouble with IQ is that it is about being fast at learning things and combining ideas together into new thing. In practice this means that people at the top get fast onto the top of the hierarchy in society. This can be good if they create things that are available to everyone and we all win, but it might also lead to great differences in wealth and access to opportunities. We on one hand want to find those people and let them create great things benefiting society, and on the other hand we are worried that very nice people might be left behind. The great thing about IQ is that it really just measures this speed of knowledge acquisition and combination, it does not measure how nice you are. We can have both, let the high IQ people create benefits for society and take care of those who did not win this lottery. Only those people who are troubled by the existence of competence hierarchies really have a problem with IQ that cannot be dealt with.
I thought Joes point about saying there are many people who score badly on IQ tests who are clearly intelligent, but he hasn't met many people who score well on IQ tests who can't demonstrate intelligence very interesting. It does risk what I suppose you would call call proxy bias, where an indicator is seen as an absolute. But it does suggest they do at least act as an indicator. Regardless I do think IQ tests focus far too much on Mathmatical/Computational prowess and certainly affected my own ideas of what constituted intelligence growing up.
It also suggests that Joe's subjective perceptions of intelligence constitute a more accurate measure of intelligence than objective testing. I question that.
Eric makes good points about the value of IQ. IMO the problem is IQ is worshipped, but high IQ comes with it's own problems, such as mental instability and a seperation from reality (see 'academics'). Intellect worships itself esp when paired with physical inferiority, so high IQ individuals will always have a superiority complex and an ability to climb heirarchies to enforce that self-aggrandizing world view. Intelligence requires but often lacks pairing with wisdom to moderate its destructive potential. Religion got this one right: Satan is characterized as a self-aggrandizing intellectual who would accept to have no equal.
Great discussion - the work of the late Professor Reuven Feuerstein would be very relevant in terms of the way forward. Unfortunately there are enormous barriers which I’m not sure will ever be overcome
The standardized tests are usually multiple choice questions and answers. So you don’t have to remember things exactly, just well enough to take an estimated guess.
iq test are not multiple choice for the most part and the parts that have multiple answers(mostly in vocabulary) have some of the answers being easy to deduce and other answers that are harder to find or know.
That's one of the greatest points I've ever heard, about spelling ability being a mark of intelligence. When one is taking part in a typed debate, one usually is racing to get one's answers out quickly, and so one could make spelling errors, including mistakes one would never otherwise make, because of the rush to respond. Joe pointed that out. His guest pointed out another huge fact about spelling, and how many brilliant people have been poor at spelling. Albert Einstein was an example of this. I don't think anyone can make a reasonable point about him not being intelligent. Finally, I want to add a somewhat related fact to this, and that is that quality of penmanship isn't a good sign of a presence or lack of intelligence either. Many brilliant people write as neatly as the average first grader, or even a kindergartener. Also when one is writing fast, it tends to make one's written work more sloppy. So that sorta ties into what these two were talking about.
This is a fantastic point. Einstein never passed high school because of his poor spelling etc. I administrate an astrophysics forum of a half million people and one thing we don't allow is the spelling police. If you can spell good enough to convey an intelligent argument that should be enough.
Besides that I type so fast I make phones and computers lag within two sentences and it jumbles the letters not because of my errors but because of the jumbled coding. I even notice patterns and have learned how to recreate them using combinations of letters.
Lorentz might be able to make a reasonable point about Einstein being unintelligent considering he's the one that solved his equation. I'm just being funny don't mind me lol.
Have you ever noticed that whenever a discussion of IQ occurs online, it almost NEVER involves a psychologist who has actually administered IQ tests? It's like watching discussions of plumbing that almost never involve plumbers.
@Sam Yaza ADHD still isn't diagnosed using physiological or biological markers. But neither are many medical conditions, even to this day. This is a long story, but don't assume behavioral measures are somehow less "real" because they don't show up in a laboratory test of some sort. Conversely, don't assume that laboratory tests are showing you something real just because there are numbers attached (e.g., IQ tests).
That’s literally all of psychology. We don’t get the human brain at all. It’s like trying to analyze a computer with the understanding that it makes pretty colors on the screen and has transistors.
I support IQ tests because I'm Nigerian. I'm not completely convinced, but I'm still going to support them and spread the word. What people believe is true is true. Gotta use that to my advantage.
There are no scientific facts that say one race is more intelligent than another. There isn't even scientific agreement on if general intelligence exists, and scientists say race is a social construct without biological meaning. Your beliefs are based on feelings or ignorance, not science.
IQ is seen as bad because it's too standardised. As Joe pointed out there are different types of intelligence. Just because a heart surgeon is a brilliant man doesn't mean he posses the analytical skills of a drug dealer or the vocabulary of a rapper or the social skills of a politician. When you only look at IQ you miss out on "How can I learn from him and what can he learn from me?". That's the issue with just stating facts. Often if you just state facts you miss the context surrounding the facts.
Rogan nailed it. This is a greasy topic. Oily feeling is my intuition saying this topic cant be had without hurting myself and all those who engage with it. Wish these topics could be ignored but that is the reason our society is so broken on this subject.
But wishing they can be ignored is not helpful. IQ correlates with income, and income correlates with quality of life. If we found that in reality IQ also correlates with ethnicity, then that means there are going to be structural issues in society that we cannot fix, and injustices we cannot repair, without dealing with the issue, and in order to deal with it we need to study it, and talk about it. And on the other hand if ethnicity _doesn't_ correlate with IQ, then by studying it and talking about it we put the proof out in the open, put the issue to bed and drive a spike through the arguments of white nationalists. Either way it's a good thing to talk about it; we only feel gross doing so because we've been indoctrinated by wokeism to believe that the truth might be ugly and the solution to that is to lie.
It is used as a weapon against people whose society is being overrun by out groups. Are the chinese, koreans, Japanese not racist? They will be when millions of Africans and arabs flood their countries and start making demands under threat of violence
I have I cool IQ story. I have a friend who owns a bar. He decided to take a free(yeah right) online IQ test right in front of me. The test took almost an hour for him to finish. At the end of the test, a little message popped up on his phone that said "for 29.95 we will tell you what your score is". I laughed and told him that his IQ was 50.
Eric Weinstein is going to end up in the same place that anyone ends up when they delve into this topic deeply, and he is very afraid of getting there because he knows very intelligent people around him have seen the same conclusions. There are many identifiable traits and racial characteristics that can be defined. In fact, a simple dna test can identify your race. And once you can do that you can measure said IQ spectrum of that race and compare it to the other races. And this has been going on for 130 years and is quite clear where races and cultures stand. Now is IQ every measure of intelligence, no. Is every Japanese smarter than ever black, no. Is their a wide spread of IQ across Asian cultures, yes Does this still get really complicated. Yup.
@Gamercatsz. I can see you have zero knowledge of the subject of race and IQ and even less about IQ in general. IQ doesnt simply come down to nutrition or environmental factors. As much as 80% of it may be genetic. Btw calling me a racist for discussing this would be comical if not so absurd. Discussing this topic and investigation of it no more makes me a racist then studying medicine makes me hate medicine. I may be a semi intellectua but I never claimed to be the worlds expert in this category. It’s great to know that you are. I’d be happy to hear about all your academic credentials as they must be extensive. List away. Ask yourself this, are certain characteristics more prevalent in one race then others. For example: 1 medical conditions that affect one race more than others? 2. Genetic conditions that affect one race more than others. 3. Can these various conditions be linked and identified back to race? What you find is that yes there are many. In fact it actually goes to our genetics and dna structure so much so that race is genetically defined and can be marked. This is well proven and you can easily get a dna test for it. Said test can even help you discover predispositions to medical conditions and address them, like Angelia Jolie getting her breasts removed to avoid breast cancer. Also it’s important to note a lot of the studies aren’t just looking at groups in the USA but across the globe.
@Miss Tang. No that is unevolved thinking. If you think you have the human body, genetics, blood flood, the brain and all it’s worjijg with nutrition figured out and it’s not complicated than right a book, you’ll be a trillionaire. Because no one has figured it out yet. The whole point of this argument is that despite a group experincing certain traits more commonly. It doesn’t mean every person in that group displays that trait. Which is why judging the individual rather than the race is even more important. It’s simple minds that think we should discriminate based on these ‘finding’ and data because that is what simple minds do.
You can't talk facts when it comes to IQ. Not PC and nobody wants to be labelled a racist. So no matter what the data shows you have to pretend every race is exactly the same and equal in every way.
He is the exact opposite of his brother. Eric is narcissistic arrogant combative and an all-around know it all.

Women however are very good at running and building small businesses. Because they love teamwork. They love consensus.
Did you even listen to what he said? He said the IQ test takes a very limited view of what we often perceive as intelligence. He mentions processing particularly, and IQ tests are heavy in that. Pattern recognition and 3D space manipulation plays a big part of IQ tests.
@@tkrenemnvagyok Just because the score in question is called "Intelligence Quotient" doesn't mean that it actually measures intelligence. To prove that IQ measures intelligence you would first have to define what intelligence is and that's something that we are currently unable to do.
IQ tests seem to measure certain types of cognitive processing related to pattern recognition and working memory well. These are important metrics for certain types of task. Much like body weight is useful metric for a sumo wrestler. However there are metrics like conscientiousness and functional plasticity that are not as well captured. Often people, who have high cognitive performance, do well in these other areas, much like being tall gives you a "leg-up", if you'll excuse the pun, in certain basketball activities, but is not going to be a deterministic factor completely. That is, there are not many NBA players under 6 feet tall compared to the general population, and only 1 or 2 that are average height (5' 9") out of about 400 players, but there are still some.
@@fickgooglefickthem6884 - they provide a probabilistic measure of likelihood of academic success. Much like height will be an indicator of performance as a center in the NBA.
@FICK GOOGLE FICK THEM of course it does. You're saying that because an IQ test can't perfectly tell you EVERYTHING about a person - even about non intellectual factors like grit, motivation, etc. - that it doesn't serve its purpose? That's an absurd conclusion. An intelligence test is only meant to measure one thing - intelligence. And it does that very well, which is all it needs to do to serve its purpose. Of course it can't perfectly predict who's going to be successful and who's not because that is a much, much more complex question. An IQ test isn't *supposed* to tell you all that - if it was we'd call it a magical oracle. It's supposed to measure intelligence, which it does very well. Just like a scale is meant to measure weight, which it does very well. We don't say a scale isn't doing its job because it doesn't divine who's going to go on to be an NFL lineman. It isn't meant to do that - it's meant to measure weight. An IQ test isn't an oracle meant to divine what a person will do with his intellect - it's just a measure of intellect. It serves its purpose as well as a weight scale does in that it accurately measures that which it attempts to measure.
@@MrMrbrianbechtel How is he full of shit? They both seem to be adding to the discussion. Both agree there are different types of intelligence and they're just mounting their beliefs
Unfortunately Eric doesn’t understand IQ very well. IQ is a measure of ability to think abstractly. It has been well established in the social sciences for 50 years.
@@1fattyfatman Any field that applies the scientific method to conduct research to expand knowledge is science. Maybe not a pure science like Chemistry and Physics, perhaps politicized and corrupted in certain areas, but a science nonetheless.
Something I have come to realize is that everyone has something or many things they could teach us if we just lose initial judgements and try and listen to them.
Eric is very right about this. Imagine trying to perfectly write or speak in a language you're learning over time, life is way bigger than just being able to put geometric patterns together and spelling the word here or hear correctly, especially when English is just one language
Iq test is a measure of how fast one can process the information. If you follow the logic, someone who can process the information faster than the other, will more likely be first to learn a skill or finish the task than the one who is processing the information slower. For example, if you need a problem solved and you have two individuas with same background but different iqs, guess who is solving that problem first? Don't guess it's the one who has a higher iq. Do you see the connection now?
@@NS-km7ek You are being correct but politically incorrect :) :) Reality is by all statistics : 1 : All countries have a large majority of men in prisons.

In debates and in the top engineering jobs and in the top businesses. In top historian academia. Men and women are very different, that is the system of evolution we automatically took.
@@NS-km7ek “Iq test is a measure of how fast one can process the information” This statement is wrong. That’s actually a subtest of the iq exam that’s referred to as the processing speed (PS).

@@bbqR0ADK1LL Precisely.
@@MrOkadaman28 I don't agree with this line of reasoning. There's no evidence that people who occupy the top echelons of a society have inherent cognitive advantages over others. They may have accumulated wealth through war, political position or even athletics. Amassing wealth alone puts your children in strong positions to succeed via access to education, job opportunities, home-life stability etc. No matter the initial source of your wealth, your children will have advantages that'll allow them to become doctors, engineers and other professionals. Those same people will then have the money to buy visas. Measuring innate intelligence is an almost impossible practice in futility. There are too many variables that can't be controlled for.

@ That's great, IQ isn't the be all/end all but if you took 100 successful people in fields like STEM I would imagine most of them would test high IQ wise.
There are other factors but at the same time IQ is relevant. You're not going to find a physicist or a brain surgeon with an 80 IQ.
People always have to tiptoe around the subject of IQ because races have different averages and no one wants to be accused of being a racist but it's a fact that as a whole races are better at some things and worse at others when compared to each other.
You use CEOs as an example but the type of person who would want to be a CEO plays more into it than IQ IMO.
Take something like the American Presidency the first basic requirement to be President is you have to want to be President in the first place and most people simply do not want the job. I would never want to have that much power and responsibility and scrutiny. I have a hard time understanding why anyone would. But people like George Bush prove you don't have to be all that smart to be President. Hell, Biden has early signs of dementia, can't even speak properly anymore without a teleprompter and there's a very good chance he'll be our next President.
To be a CEO you first have to WANT to be a CEO which has nothing to do with IQ. People are drawn to positions of power by a number of personality traits.

We do not need to quantify it at all. As pointed out in the vid standardized tests are for specific types of information. We have similar tests for every subject. There is no reason to test a world class musician in physics, and vice versa. The only reason it is an issue is because of all the people crying descrimination, we needed a way to prove that there are other reasons for differences.
@@morgan3688 I Q testing was started a hundred years ago to find officers to lead other men into war. It's important.
Curiosity and an acceptance of alternative views is actually a sign of low intelligence. Just talk to someone that looks at "Dr.Seby" as someone that knows what they are talking about and not a fraud. Gullibility doesnt equal intelligence, quite the contrary.
Good officers only need two traits-empathty and tactical inteligence. It is true that those with higher general inteligence will on average have higher tactical intelignece, but one does not neccesitate the other. Officers without empathy have mutinies. Officers without tactical inteligence get men killed. Officers that dont understand quantum physics could have either, both, or neither.

No. I failed a lot too until I decided to train myself not to, so I started a process where I paid extra attention in that circumstance, even forcing myself to signal when it wasn't necessary, because there was no one else around. At some point it crossed a threshold where it became automatic, and I never failed since. I don't even have to think about it anymore. Typing correctly is the same kind of thing.

If you learn things slower than others, should you be introduced to things at a pace that makes it impossible for you to keep up, resulting in your education being a waste of time where you'll learn to hate school?

I could try to argue against your point. Any instance of dividing people into groups, there are many more divisions that come naturally, based on a multitude of characteristics that have no ill effects. But like what you were pointing out, it would not address the questions I am wondering about.

- Is there a variability in aptitude and interest between different students?

- Is IQ a the best way to assess aptitude for learning certain kinds of things?
Which is only relevant to answer, because IQ is one of the things they talked about.
If you want to know my thoughts on what would be the best, here they are:
I probably think that choice would rather be the better method. Letting students choose what they want to study. If that is to learn a trade and start working at 15 or to spend all of their days studying mathematics or whatever attracts their interest.
I do not believe that you can gain anything useful by forcing people to learn anything. You can only convince them that learning certain things is useful for the desires they want to realize.
@@Me-by8qi i believe that the downside of the last bit you wrote is that you're going to have a tiny part of kids that are actively going to finish schools with the prerequisites that are required to get into a University.
I believe that's what middle school is all about... The more intelligent kids receive more and complex information to process so the odds of them being able to complete higher education increases.
Ian Diederen That's a valid concern, and one I have considered. It might be preferable if we weren't limited by the choices when you were young. But there's also a potential downside to not limiting yourself. Otherwise we wouldn't be able to specialize.
There's also the arguments of wanting responsible citizens that know history and about the world etc.
My concern is that forcing people to do things that they have not been convinced are useful for their aim is not conducive to producing self driven people with a love of learning.
@@Me-by8qi i all honesty my view of IQ has been torn to shreds and how the education system is currently implemented does make me wonder about a lot of things you've adressed and the variables are immense.
My perception of middle school was that the entire system was just to show you a bit of everything... I used to be a fan of a particular topic and i got straight 9/10's on every test or exam because i loved it. This was also in line what i decided to study after i graduated. The rest i really couldn't be bothered as long as i didn't fail the tests. In Amerika i believe they look at the entire point average to decide if you're allowed into college or not, which imo seems stupid that if you don't want to do something with math or history you're still going to have to get good Grades on that.
Might be just 1 example of many but i can't really believe that you're going to let kids of certain age, let's say 12, decide that they're allowed to just do the stuff they want to do.
When i was 12 i wanted to make video games, be a marine biologist and be a docter.
I can't immagine kids teaching that to themselfs before the age 18, let alone having teachers available to guide them.
Again, don't get me wrong, on the most part agree with your way of thinking! I'm just nitpicking and brainstorming about possible downsides.
I haven't ever thought so much about education and the flaws of curreny society so my thoughts probably lack a lot of factors that should also be taking in condideration xd

This is a very clear misunderstanding of how IQ functions
Creativity is separate from how psychology measures IQ, even if common people use terms like genius for people who are creative or score highly on IQ tests
And IQ does measure MULTIPLE aspects of cognition, it measures working memory, visual/spatial memory, fluid and crystal intelligence etc.
This is hearsay from people who just don’t know much about these tests
It’s one of the best, most consistent and accurate measures we have today and shouldn’t be dismissed
@@Official_Baba_yaga LMAOOO exactly

Mr. Freeze IQ tests do indeed test the indicators you listed, but you make the supposition that this denotes intelligence. IQ tests miss out a plethora of measurable intelligence indicators e.g short term memory, verbal agility and reasoning. Read “Fractionating Human Intelligence” by Hampshire, Highfield et al. for an excellent study on the fallacy of IQ testing.

We have to get to the point that when other groups of individuals are talked about, whether on social media or in a research paper, we all know and they know , that it is done with utmost compassion and respect for them as a group, and as individuals.

The book "the bell curve" is not about "race & IQ". There is a small chapter that also treats that, but mainly it is about the differences between the top and bottom FOR ALL PEOPLE, ALL GROUPs.
The trouble with IQ is that it is about being fast at learning things and combining ideas together into new thing. In practice this means that people at the top get fast onto the top of the hierarchy in society.
This can be good if they create things that are available to everyone and we all win, but it might also lead to great differences in wealth and access to opportunities.
We on one hand want to find those people and let them create great things benefiting society, and on the other hand we are worried that very nice people might be left behind.
The great thing about IQ is that it really just measures this speed of knowledge acquisition and combination, it does not measure how nice you are.
We can have both, let the high IQ people create benefits for society and take care of those who did not win this lottery.
Only those people who are troubled by the existence of competence hierarchies really have a problem with IQ that cannot be dealt with.

I thought Joes point about saying there are many people who score badly on IQ tests who are clearly intelligent, but he hasn't met many people who score well on IQ tests who can't demonstrate intelligence very interesting.
It does risk what I suppose you would call call proxy bias, where an indicator is seen as an absolute. But it does suggest they do at least act as an indicator.
Regardless I do think IQ tests focus far too much on Mathmatical/Computational prowess and certainly affected my own ideas of what constituted intelligence growing up.
It also suggests that Joe's subjective perceptions of intelligence constitute a more accurate measure of intelligence than objective testing. I question that.
Eric makes good points about the value of IQ. IMO the problem is IQ is worshipped, but high IQ comes with it's own problems, such as mental instability and a seperation from reality (see 'academics').
Intellect worships itself esp when paired with physical inferiority, so high IQ individuals will always have a superiority complex and an ability to climb heirarchies to enforce that self-aggrandizing world view.
Intelligence requires but often lacks pairing with wisdom to moderate its destructive potential. Religion got this one right: Satan is characterized as a self-aggrandizing intellectual who would accept to have no equal.
IQ is just a metric. Intelligence level is relative to the person and the subject in question.
Super flattering pic of Eric in the thumbnail lol
Great discussion - the work of the late Professor Reuven Feuerstein would be very relevant in terms of the way forward. Unfortunately there are enormous barriers which I’m not sure will ever be overcome
We were created in equity, not equality.
So different looking people who've grown in different places may actually think differently..
That seems obvious
The standardized tests are usually multiple choice questions and answers. So you don’t have to remember things exactly, just well enough to take an estimated guess.
iq test are not multiple choice for the most part and the parts that have multiple answers(mostly in vocabulary) have some of the answers being easy to deduce and other answers that are harder to find or know.
The issue is compassion for ourselves and others!!! Spot on!!!! Love your neighbor as you love yourself!!!
That's one of the greatest points I've ever heard, about spelling ability being a mark of intelligence. When one is taking part in a typed debate, one usually is racing to get one's answers out quickly, and so one could make spelling errors, including mistakes one would never otherwise make, because of the rush to respond. Joe pointed that out. His guest pointed out another huge fact about spelling, and how many brilliant people have been poor at spelling. Albert Einstein was an example of this. I don't think anyone can make a reasonable point about him not being intelligent. Finally, I want to add a somewhat related fact to this, and that is that quality of penmanship isn't a good sign of a presence or lack of intelligence either. Many brilliant people write as neatly as the average first grader, or even a kindergartener. Also when one is writing fast, it tends to make one's written work more sloppy. So that sorta ties into what these two were talking about.
Very late to the party but just wanted to say, I work in engineering, surrounded by genius' and not one of them can spell to save their life.
This is a fantastic point. Einstein never passed high school because of his poor spelling etc. I administrate an astrophysics forum of a half million people and one thing we don't allow is the spelling police. If you can spell good enough to convey an intelligent argument that should be enough.
Besides that I type so fast I make phones and computers lag within two sentences and it jumbles the letters not because of my errors but because of the jumbled coding. I even notice patterns and have learned how to recreate them using combinations of letters.
Lorentz might be able to make a reasonable point about Einstein being unintelligent considering he's the one that solved his equation. I'm just being funny don't mind me lol.
Have you ever noticed that whenever a discussion of IQ occurs online, it almost NEVER involves a psychologist who has actually administered IQ tests?
It's like watching discussions of plumbing that almost never involve plumbers.
@Sam Yaza ADHD still isn't diagnosed using physiological or biological markers. But neither are many medical conditions, even to this day. This is a long story, but don't assume behavioral measures are somehow less "real" because they don't show up in a laboratory test of some sort. Conversely, don't assume that laboratory tests are showing you something real just because there are numbers attached (e.g., IQ tests).
That’s literally all of psychology. We don’t get the human brain at all. It’s like trying to analyze a computer with the understanding that it makes pretty colors on the screen and has transistors.

IQ is seen as bad because differences in races. Until we can see the truth instead of feeling bad for people we can talk facts.
There are no scientific facts that say one race is more intelligent than another. There isn't even scientific agreement on if general intelligence exists, and scientists say race is a social construct without biological meaning. Your beliefs are based on feelings or ignorance, not science.
IQ is seen as bad because it's too standardised. As Joe pointed out there are different types of intelligence. Just because a heart surgeon is a brilliant man doesn't mean he posses the analytical skills of a drug dealer or the vocabulary of a rapper or the social skills of a politician. When you only look at IQ you miss out on "How can I learn from him and what can he learn from me?".
That's the issue with just stating facts. Often if you just state facts you miss the context surrounding the facts.

Rogan nailed it. This is a greasy topic. Oily feeling is my intuition saying this topic cant be had without hurting myself and all those who engage with it.
Wish these topics could be ignored but that is the reason our society is so broken on this subject.
But wishing they can be ignored is not helpful. IQ correlates with income, and income correlates with quality of life. If we found that in reality IQ also correlates with ethnicity, then that means there are going to be structural issues in society that we cannot fix, and injustices we cannot repair, without dealing with the issue, and in order to deal with it we need to study it, and talk about it. And on the other hand if ethnicity _doesn't_ correlate with IQ, then by studying it and talking about it we put the proof out in the open, put the issue to bed and drive a spike through the arguments of white nationalists. Either way it's a good thing to talk about it; we only feel gross doing so because we've been indoctrinated by wokeism to believe that the truth might be ugly and the solution to that is to lie.
Being racist has been normal for as long as there have been animals
Did the differences between races not exist until recently?
It is used as a weapon against people whose society is being overrun by out groups. Are the chinese, koreans, Japanese not racist? They will be when millions of Africans and arabs flood their countries and start making demands under threat of violence
*Chernobyl Chicken." I died 😂😂😂
I have I cool IQ story. I have a friend who owns a bar. He decided to take a free(yeah right) online IQ test right in front of me. The test took almost an hour for him to finish. At the end of the test, a little message popped up on his phone that said "for 29.95 we will tell you what your score is". I laughed and told him that his IQ was 50.
I’m getting dumber. Watching this . I was expecting some more real fact not opinion. I’m not high enough .

Eric Weinstein is going to end up in the same place that anyone ends up when they delve into this topic deeply, and he is very afraid of getting there because he knows very intelligent people around him have seen the same conclusions. There are many identifiable traits and racial characteristics that can be defined. In fact, a simple dna test can identify your race. And once you can do that you can measure said IQ spectrum of that race and compare it to the other races. And this has been going on for 130 years and is quite clear where races and cultures stand.
Now is IQ every measure of intelligence, no.
Is every Japanese smarter than ever black, no.
Is their a wide spread of IQ across Asian cultures, yes
Does this still get really complicated. Yup.
@Gamercatsz. I can see you have zero knowledge of the subject of race and IQ and even less about IQ in general. IQ doesnt simply come down to nutrition or environmental factors. As much as 80% of it may be genetic. Btw calling me a racist for discussing this would be comical if not so absurd. Discussing this topic and investigation of it no more makes me a racist then studying medicine makes me hate medicine. I may be a semi intellectua but I never claimed to be the worlds expert in this category. It’s great to know that you are. I’d be happy to hear about all your academic credentials as they must be extensive. List away.
Ask yourself this, are certain characteristics more prevalent in one race then others. For example:
1 medical conditions that affect one race more than others?
2. Genetic conditions that affect one race more than others.
3. Can these various conditions be linked and identified back to race?
What you find is that yes there are many. In fact it actually goes to our genetics and dna structure so much so that race is genetically defined and can be marked. This is well proven and you can easily get a dna test for it. Said test can even help you discover predispositions to medical conditions and address them, like Angelia Jolie getting her breasts removed to avoid breast cancer.
Also it’s important to note a lot of the studies aren’t just looking at groups in the USA but across the globe.
@Miss Tang. No that is unevolved thinking. If you think you have the human body, genetics, blood flood, the brain and all it’s worjijg with nutrition figured out and it’s not complicated than right a book, you’ll be a trillionaire. Because no one has figured it out yet.
The whole point of this argument is that despite a group experincing certain traits more commonly. It doesn’t mean every person in that group displays that trait. Which is why judging the individual rather than the race is even more important. It’s simple minds that think we should discriminate based on these ‘finding’ and data because that is what simple minds do.
You can't talk facts when it comes to IQ. Not PC and nobody wants to be labelled a racist.
So no matter what the data shows you have to pretend every race is exactly the same and equal in every way.
This guy is smart. Compassion and human dignity are important. Happy to hear someone talking about them.

Race and IQ is not even debatable. It's observable.

@@tkrenemnvagyok Just because the score in question is called "Intelligence Quotient" doesn't mean that it actually measures intelligence. To prove that IQ measures intelligence you would first have to define what intelligence is and that's something that we are currently unable to do.

IQ tests seem to measure certain types of cognitive processing related to pattern recognition and working memory well. These are important metrics for certain types of task. Much like body weight is useful metric for a sumo wrestler. However there are metrics like conscientiousness and functional plasticity that are not as well captured. Often people, who have high cognitive performance, do well in these other areas, much like being tall gives you a "leg-up", if you'll excuse the pun, in certain basketball activities, but is not going to be a deterministic factor completely. That is, there are not many NBA players under 6 feet tall compared to the general population, and only 1 or 2 that are average height (5' 9") out of about 400 players, but there are still some.
Then the Test doesn't serve it's purpose
@@fickgooglefickthem6884 - they provide a probabilistic measure of likelihood of academic success. Much like height will be an indicator of performance as a center in the NBA.
@FICK GOOGLE FICK THEM of course it does. You're saying that because an IQ test can't perfectly tell you EVERYTHING about a person - even about non intellectual factors like grit, motivation, etc. - that it doesn't serve its purpose? That's an absurd conclusion. An intelligence test is only meant to measure one thing - intelligence. And it does that very well, which is all it needs to do to serve its purpose.
Of course it can't perfectly predict who's going to be successful and who's not because that is a much, much more complex question. An IQ test isn't *supposed* to tell you all that - if it was we'd call it a magical oracle. It's supposed to measure intelligence, which it does very well.
Just like a scale is meant to measure weight, which it does very well. We don't say a scale isn't doing its job because it doesn't divine who's going to go on to be an NFL lineman. It isn't meant to do that - it's meant to measure weight. An IQ test isn't an oracle meant to divine what a person will do with his intellect - it's just a measure of intellect. It serves its purpose as well as a weight scale does in that it accurately measures that which it attempts to measure.

Iq test is a measure of how fast one can process the information. If you follow the logic, someone who can process the information faster than the other, will more likely be first to learn a skill or finish the task than the one who is processing the information slower.
