from the study "in one survey of relevant studies (Hunter, 1983), the mean of the corrected correlations was .54. This implies that, across a wide range of occupations, intellegence test performance accounts for some 29% of the variance in job performance" he was not lying, the correlation is r = .54 which gives an r^2 = .2916 which is what they do in statistics.

On that point, you have no basis for saying he didn't read it, or he lied, he accurately reported the correlation as a correlation.

@AarontheCurious No, LaughingMan0x was extremely dishonest and did not read the report. The report says,

*intelligence test scores are at least weakly related

to job performance in most settings..such tests

predict considerably less than half the variance of job related

measures. Other individual characteristics--interpersonal

skills, aspects of personality, etc.--are probably

of equal or greater importance, but at this point we

do not have equally reliable instruments to measure them.*

@AarontheCurious That is why it is good having the report right here to quote from. It shows all of you scientific racists are full of bs, cherry picking studies that don't agree with you to mislead the audience.

@AarontheCurious He was also extremely dishonest in ignoring the APA's report findings on the weak correlation for crime and referring to another report instead. Furthermore, .54 is NOT a strong correlation in comparing the similarity of two variables that may have a different cause.

what a racist chart...

But if you are trying to make your kid do good you have to just read to him and challenge him often the younger the better. the brain will build up like a muscle when lifting weights. Works trust me. And make sure he gets good food and lots of sleep. is that what this is about? how to have kids do good at iq tests?

[AEVautomatic]

Test scores are not an important issue.

Nice. I think most people see LaughingMan0X as intellectually dishonest.

[AarontheCurious]

As for the crime, he cited Jensen's work, not the APA study for that.

And Eyferth's study is terrible, low sample sizes, elite sample of african soldiers due to the army's testing iirc as many as half of them were rejected, on top of that the kids were mulatto not fully black and on top of that the results are unsurprising given that the large gaps we see are much smaller in children than they are in adults. I've also heard that blood study was faulty as well but don't know the details of it.

Great video, DayTimes.
