  • In this webinar recording, twelve years of research into differences in Wechsler FSIQ scores between Whites, African Americans, and Hispanics are summarized for WISC-V, WAIS-IV, and WISC-IV both before and after controlling for socioeconomic status. The data presented shows that SES accounts for more of the difference with children than adults, and Hispanics than African Americans. The presenter explains that cognitively enriching environments stimulate intellectual growth and development while cognitively impoverishing environments inhibit intellectual development. In addition, compelling data is presented showing that SES is unequally distributed across racial / ethnic groups, and this intersectionality of class and environmental opportunity is a matter of social justice.

      SES is not the only factor that must be controlled. Cultural attitudes toward certain traits, stigmas, pressure, and an innumerable amount of other factors/influences, must be accounted for. Race IQ science is largely conjecture and amounts to nothing when put under any scrutiny.

    The official IQ test I’ve done simply involved solving problems, pattern recognition and how fast the brain can process the information. That in a nutshell measures intelligence accurately and there’s a reason why some societies advanced whilst some have stagnated and even regressed.

    • @apenguicitis4395
      @apenguicitis4395 Před 2 lety +9

      Untrue. Speed is not the determining factor in intelligence. Intelligence is varied. In reality, the reason some societies have stagnated and regressed has nothing to do with marginally lower scores on a test, but it has to do with circumstances unique to the environment. Things you would not know unless you've studied said society, or perhaps lived there. You lack scope. For every complex question, there is a simple answer, which also happens to be wrong.

      That's one possible explanation. We know that we all came out of Africa and that some groups chose to explore and move into Europe and Asia, while other groups chose to stay in Africa. If you think about Evolution, what traits would be necessary for survival among the groups that chose to explore Europe and Asia and encounter the unknown? I would propose that intelligence would be the primary trait. Now for the groups that stayed in Africa and continued to hunt for food and live tribal style, I would propose that strength and speed would be the traits necessary for survival. Evolution may be the explanation for why some races are smarter than others.

      @bluebird5173 Před rokem

      @Racialist Slayer Another thing to consider is that anyone can come up with any evolutionary just-so story to "explain" anything. That's what makes the Cold Winters theory so unconvincing. Historically, Europeans lived a life of subsistence and only began building civilization after absorbing influence from the Middle East (which introduced such things as agriculture, city building, writing, and mathematics). So if anything, it seems that cold climates were _unfavorable_ to civilization, which racialists correlate positively with IQ.
      I'm willing to bet that if it had been _blacks_ that adapted to the cold, racialists would claim their brains never developed faculties for innovation because they were too busy just surviving the brutal winters, whereas their white counterparts were able to innovate because the warm climates in which they lived enabled surplus agriculture, which in turn supported civilization, which in turn was conducive to new developments beyond mere survival such as writing, specialization of labor, etc, which in turn required their brains to adapt to these developments.
      But because in reality _whites_ were the ones that adapted to the cold, the "explanation" is that the cold required innovation and planning, whereas the heat made life too easy for blacks. It's just motivated reasoning.

    Why weren't the differences between AA and Asians shown? What about the differences between Asians and Hispanics?
    Furthermore, the statistical analyses around 28:00 are terribly executed. No sensitivity analysis / robustness checks? No jacknife estimation / tests for outliers? How do we even know the differences in R2 are statistically insignificant? At the very least some sort of bootstrapping should've been done. Adding more variables to a linear model can reduce the explanatory power of a variable, but what about the VIF? Multicollinearity between PED and race might make it look, as though race has little explanatory power.
    Given Dr. Weiss' overall presumption that race does not matter and that any differences in IQ scores are wholly attributable to SES, the empirical analysis of the data seems like a foregone conclusion. The data will most certainly not be made available to the public, as this would open the researchers up to an audit.
    Without a replication study one must call the results of the statistical analysis, and thus the speakers conclusion, into question.

    I have a simplistic approach to this discussion. Over 30 yrs ago I came to belief that most kids are born special, but their parents raise them as if they are avg and/or their environment effects their measured intelligence. I read somewhere that lack of good nutrition as well as stresses in daily life could account for up to one standard deviation lower IQ score.
    I believe that we teach kids in the U.S so late and so slow that we don’t activate more of their intellectual abilities. That’s why most any kid who has involved parents, that teach early and expect exceptionalism, tend to be high achievers on test and school. And I thought, if poor, so called low IQ kids in Africa can learn several different languages by 3 yrs old, then learning to read and add by 3 wouldn’t be that difficult. And a child reading and adding by 3 yrs old would be considered special in most schools anywhere.
    Here's my case for the affects of environment. I know this isn’t scientific but it worked very well.
    I was just watching a youtube video called, “A family of geniuses lives in Keller, but more than good genes are at work” where the two biological kids of a couple are geniuses and both started college at 13 yrs old. They adopted a little girl from Ethiopia and exposed her to the same discipline and expectation environment as their bio children. She also started college at age 13 and is exceptional. Is it possible that they got lucky and adopted a genius or was it most likely their environment, which included home schooling, was the major cause of her success? Since I believe that most kids are born exceptional, these parent’s environment would have made most kids special.
    Once I decided that most children were born special over 30 yrs ago and environment was the deciding factor, I set a goal to produce exceptional kids who were 1% earners. I didn’t want them to be limited in life by money so I planned to teach them early and talk to them about finance, business, compound interest and more before they were 10 yrs old. I decided to tell them they were special often and it was expected that they would be great compared to the masses. I told them that society looked down on blacks as not as intelligent as whites and Asians, so we will crush 99% of them. I used Asians as examples of discipline and let my kids know that they are considered the smartest group in the U.S. I made it competitive and said they should out achieve 99% of Asians in either school and/or wealth because I won’t let the Asian parents out parent me. I told them most kids are special too, but you have me, and we will smash the competition in most areas.
    It worked out ok so far. My adult twenty something son set a multiplication record in the 3rd grade, started a business at 14 and also played college basketball for a top 25 school. He taught himself how to trade while in college balling and the year he graduated he made approx. $180k. My twenty something daughter learned to play two instruments and speak 3 languages. I would tell each one of them with a little humor, when the other wasn’t around, don’t let your brother/sister out do you, we need to smash him/her and we had a lot of fun with it. Today, my two adult children own THM Exotics in Las Vegas, and out earn 99% of the people in the U.S.
    I learned a lot with my two older children, so when my daughter came along 8 years later. I was ready. We taught her alphabets and counting to 10 by one yrs old. Taught her to read, shapes/colors and to do addition by 3yrs old and by 4 she was writing. By 6 or 7 yrs, the school had her take the Weschler test administered by a psychologist and she was determined highly or ultra gifted. At around 10 yrs oId I showed her finance and trading, etc and told her she was smashing here siblings and everyone else. The results so far, she started college at 15 (would’ve been 14, but she didn’t want to skip another grade and leave more friends). She also, started a home-made hair bonnet business at 15. And because she likes k-pop so much, she taught herself to speak Korean and tested into the 2nd level in college. Koreans are so surprised to see a young black girl speak their language and it gives me great joy as a father. I have no doubt that she will be a multimillionaire as a by- product of her environment and not wanting her older siblings to out-do her. By-the-way, I’m not rich or a college graduate.
    Along the way, I helped other kids and parents, and was surprised how well it worked. I now know that if you put most any kid in my household at one yrs old they will be exceptional at something. And I would say to any parent or person reading this, mostly likely you were born special and so were your kids, you/they just weren’t treated as if they were special.

So nowadays people want to ignore the fact that some races are not as smart as others on average because of the racism that used to come with it in the past

    I think a study that rank orders racial groups by intelligence, temperment and etc would be a good thing. Currently there's a lot of resentment towards Asians and Whites that's based on the notion that outcome-differences are due to racism. This should not be the default belief. The hypothesis that racial disparities in outcome are caused by genetic and/or cultural differences should be thoroughly explored. The results should be widely known. The results should be taught to 5th graders and up so that children aren't left to speculate that blacks are underrepresented in selection and achievement in IB and honors courses soley due to racism. If my middle school-aged children were to inquire at school about the origin of the Easter bunny, they could count on getting a straight answer, but if they asked the teacher which race is smarter, they would likely get criticized or get the runaround.
    BTW, There is a study that shows that IQ correlates with the level of education one attempts and succeeds in obtaining. Blacks at the PHD level had a calculated mean IQ that was the same as Whites at the junior college level. This information is astonishing, and should be confirmed through additional studies and then proclaimed to all.

    There are different gene pools/ethnic groups inside the white race. A South Spaniard is "white" a South Italian is "white" but they are both heavily influenced by Turkic Semitic genes... A white from the north of europe like a Nordic or Anglo Saxon Germanic is a totally different group, there is no White homogeneous race. There are different groups and different IQs, just like different physical traits, that are obvious. A Hispanic Latino has some European ancestry from Spain but is not a Nordic. Look at the colonies of England and Spain and what they have achieved compared to eachother. There is a clear evidence to IQ difference. Just look at what the different ethnic groups accomplished before getting in contact with each other... There you have the evidence of IQ and races.

    How do you hold clinicians that knowing allow for these racial biases in their assessments accountable? The testing is subjective in nature and limited to the clinicians perceived social biases when race is involved.

    • @psychicspy
      @psychicspy Před 2 lety +11

      Why do you automatically assume racial bias? The tests have been given to mixed groups and then assessments have been made by people blind to the race and gender of the test taker and the results are the same. More effort has been put into removing any possibility of bias from IQ tests than probably any other test that has ever been given. Then there is the correlation across tests like the ASVAB and SAT and ACT tests. There is no point in denying the validity of the results of properly constructed and administered IQ tests. I make that distinction only to separate clinical IQ tests from those taken as questionnaires on Twitter etc. ABILITY affects a person's life outcomes whether you and your ilk like it or not.

      I propose that we openly talk about all issues, regardless of how difficult they might seem on the first glance.
      Every single one of our "gap closing programs" were based on this lie, which is why they all failed miserably.
      You can see that today many schools are getting rid of standards of excellence, calling timeliness, learning and hard work signs of White supremacy.
      Because of this very lie we are pushing our society towards the "lowest common denominator" instead of lifting up people.

    The upshot is that IQ varies by racial groups but these differences are conditioned by income, educational attainment, social-economic status, and cognitively stimulating environments.
    One might conclude genetics produces a lower IQ offspring from two lower IQ parents which only exasperates the consequences. The result of a low IQ parent is poor life choices, such as out-of-wedlock birth, no father in the home, substance abuse, lack of parental attention, welfare, criminality, lack of positive interaction with the child, and poor nutrition choices. So, is it more correct to say that a parent's genetics determine the child's IQ which is further harmed by the child's lousy environment which is determined by the parent's IQ?
    If one low IQ child (twins for instance) is taken and placed in a high IQ parental environment at an early age, how much improvement in IQ is there compared to the twin that stays governed by the low IQ parent?

      That is why heritability of IQ is 60 % upwards towards 80 %. Most of the variance in IQ is coming from variance in genetics meaning that environmental factors arent explaining the gap as ppl have predicted.
      That said, why should we expect the avg african american to succeed as much as the average white american in the same environments? It seems nonsense and antiscience to think that environment explains everything

    Well the western World invented the IQ Test as a sort of a selection issue and matter.
    The rationale about testing people in examination settings is a bad precedent because not everyone had had the chance to go to school and be exposed to School examinations and testing.
    With the passage of time one will see that IQ tests will lose their validity until about the year 2038.
    The Universiry of California Schools decided to abolish the requirement back in 2015.
    The high School Transcript will now become the only requirement for undergraduate entries.
    From about the year 1926 to the 2011s The SAT was the yardstick upon which all other students were judged.
