But the IQ tests was designed by the typical human species. Perhaps the IQ test is biased towards the current dominant species and higher species would not do well on it because it is not designed based on their specifications.

>In light of all the available IQ data of over 37,000 African test-takers, only the use of unsystematic methods to exclude the vast majority of data could result in a mean IQ close to 70.

Although this mean IQ is clearly lower than 100, we view it as unsurprising in light of the potential of the Flynn Effect in Africa (Wicherts, Borsboom, & Dolan, 2010) and common psychometric problems associated with the use of western IQ tests among Africans.

Read the whole paper. It's interesting when Lynn rejects a high IQ sample because of reason X, then accepts a low IQ sample that should also have been rejected for the same reason.

Par for the course for Lynn. He also used questionable methods in his studies of Japanese children (using biased samples to produce the "111 IQ") which he then used to justify a series of publications:
Harold Stevenson and Hiroshi Azuma, “IQ in Japan and the United States,” Nature, Vol. 306 (November 17, 1983), pp. 291–292.

>And why are almost all blacks encounter nearly retarded?
You're looking for a retard, so you find one.

This line of questioning, your apparent inability to understand a very clear chart, and your refusal to do your own research all point to lower cognitive function, yet you don't see yourself as a retard.

So your argument is that lions and tigers are the same species?

Species is not "these two animals can produce fertile offspring together, so they are the same species".

We can determine if two animals aren't the same species, but it's completely arbitrary to decide that two animals are. I wish we did have a proper definition and method, though.

You're probably a troll but people who make this sort of argument miss the forest for the trees. Even if sub-Saharan Africans designed their own IQ test that they scored either higher or equal to Whites and East Asians, they're still millennia behind us intellectually and technologically. Intelligence isn't an arbitrary cultural construct, and if you think it is, you lack it.

And if he excluded some of the low IQ samples from, for example, malaria-diseased children, orphaned children, etc. which he included, it would be above 75. Wicherts/Dolan/van der Maas expect an IQ of about 80, well above the 69.5 "discovered" by Lynn.

>An IQ average of 85 is borderline non-functional as well.
False. See >>9062824 for citation.
Once you get the IQ to 80 or higher, psychometric issues (for example, exceptionally poor performance on the "draw a man" IQ test when it was given to Sudanese children who had never used a pencil) and Flynn effect in developed nations (against which these studies are normed against) can "explain away" the difference.
Because he understands statistics, Lynn knew this. That's why he knew he had to massage his data so severely.

Who's massaging the data again? If other studies of populations exclude these types of people then that might be a fair point, but I'm guessing that isn't the case. Both the data and their civilizational track record seem to suggest Africa is significantly below average in intelligence. You can put a rosy lens on the data or smear it with shit but either way it's grim.

To clarify what I meant, an IQ of 85 is borderline non-functional in a highly developed post-industrial civilization. I'm hopeful for parts of Africa's future, but by that I mean hopefully they'll reach Middle Eastern HDI levels within the next 100 years.

Lynn. That's the point. Read the study I cited.

It's perfectly fine to reject a sample for being unrepresentative or "bad" in some way. But Lynn's acceptance or rejection of an IQ sample is inconsistent on its face (e.g. rejecting a high IQ sample because it came from a "fee-paying school", yet accepting two low IQ samples from other "fee-paying schools"). The strongest predictor of inclusion was the IQ of the sample. This strongly suggests he cherrypicked data to get his desired result, and, as his studies of the Japanese showed, it's actually a pattern with him.

>Both the data and the civilization track record
A thinly-veiled attempt to steer the discussion away from the data.

>To clarify what I meant, an IQ of 85 is borderline non-functional in a highly developed post-industrial civilization.
And? These IQ samples were taken in minimally-developed, famine- and disease-ridden war-torn civilizations. The IQ of 80 estimated by Wicherts etl al. would correspond to an IQ of ~95 by British norms.

What I'm saying is that they have these problems chronically for a reason. Europe and Asia both bounced back pretty quick from WWI and WWII, neither of which hardly touched Africa.

Hmmm I guess we disagree on what constitutes an advanced civilization. Abbasid Empire gave us the Islamic Golden Age.

That's because you don't understand norming, the general methodology of these meta-studies, and possibly not even basic statistics.
Reread:
>The IQ of 80 estimated by Wicherts etl al. would correspond to an IQ of ~95 by British norms.

>You seem more concerned about proving that Lynn is a racist
Actually, I never said anything about Lynn being racist. I did imply his methods are dishonest, but I backed it up with a mountain of evidence which you have yet been unable to refute.

Thus your charge that I wish to prove Lynn is a racist is both straw man and argument from motive. Seems the endpoint of your mental contortions was a descent into fallacies.

>random quote about fast-twitch muscle fibers from some other random thread
Please keep the discussion to Lynn's IQ studies, please.

>chronic problems
Don't misunderstand. I'm not saying whether there is or isn't a racial difference in intelligence. Just the fact that this IQ data does not suggest it. We can continue with your alternate line of reasoning, but first let's conclude the discussion at hand. We cannot move on until it is settled because you seem to be trying to corroborate studies which have been proven invalid, which obviously makes no sense.

No, I guess I don't understand norming. Please explain how the average African IQ is actually +1SD higher than what Lynn measured.

Rindermann's 2007 study corroborated Lynn's study. No, I didn't read through the whole thing, but Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_and_intelligence) says:

"Rindermann's analysis found many of the same groupings and correlations found by Lynn and Vanhanen, with the lowest scores in sub-Saharan Africa, and a correlation of .60 between cognitive skill and GDP per capita. According to Hunt, due to there being far more data available, Rindermann's analysis was more reliable than those by Lynn and Vanhanen. By measuring the relationship between educational data and social well-being over time, this study also performed a causal analysis, finding that nations investing in education leads to increased well-being later on."

You could claim that if you wanted to politicize the findings, then not by claiming that merely because Sub Saharans have a ghost species ancestor makes them special, but that them having a different intermixture of ancestral species than Caucasians and Asians makes us genetically very different.

I find that it's mainly authoritarian-leaning people who put their left-or-right bias before the facts. Of course, that includes politicians, mainstream media, and those on the far left & far right. That just follows with authoritarians wanting to dictate the facts rather than having the facts dictated to them.

The social libertarians, those who put more stock in the individual and self-determination, are more likely to listen to people's ideas and the science for what it is because they don't just see people as in-groups and out-groups. They also don't see their own selves as bound to a particular group, so suggesting their position or their informants being misinformed doesn't translate into a personal attack the way it does with the authoritarian left & right.

That's just to say that you can have a strong political view but also allow room for doubting. In fact, that's one of the core tenets of classical liberalism.

Please realize that nobody is debating that sub-saharan IQ test performance is lower than british IQ test performance. That's objectively true. The debate is over the question: is the different due to environment, or innate population differences (genetics)?

Remember "The Bell Curve?" Perhaps you've seen or even shitposted pic related? The widely-cited 85 IQ figure is derived from the 70 IQ figure developed by Lynn's team. The extra 15 points comes from asking, "If Africa was a developed continent similar to Europe, what would the IQ average be?" So they (as stated previously, and even quoted by you) corrected for various environmental issues, psychometric uncertainty, and the Flynn effect in Europe to arrive at 85, still safely below 100, and then pushed the "genetic" narrative.

But suppose they had started from the more accurate 80 IQ? Then the same 15 points puts black IQ at 95, an insignificant difference.

>Rindermann's 2007 study corroborated Lynn's study.
No, it didn't. It alluded to the significant IQ difference between regions. It doesn't corroborate Lynn's data or the 70 IQ figure, nor does it corroborate Lynn's overall claim that the difference is mostly genetic in nature.

>lol it's called rhetoric

>Fair enough. I disagree but that's not an unreasonable position.
I would say your position is quite unreasonable. You claim Lynn's study is valid purely because you want to believe in its conclusions, even when you agree that his data is invalid because his methodologies were unsound.

Who's talking about equality here? The fact is even if you win the "debate" that each race is a species of their own the fact we can still (and have for hundreds of thousands of years apparently) crossbreed easily means your victory in such a debate is hollow.

All that's going to happen is that biologists will have to redefine species and make a special snowflake spot for the animals who frequently crossbreed to expand their fitness level. Akin to some new age cross-species symbiosis that help each other for survival.

The only real winners here are the biologists who get a new field of study and employment. Because it sure as hell won't help anyone else because now the same data use to prove us different species will now be used to prove we need each other on a survival level.

It's just measurement error, and it's something you can't totally avoid. There are countless examples in the cited paper which you (seemingly) did not read.

You can't "fix" them per se; instead, you can develop or select a more appropriate test, you can try to correct for the confounding factors using statistical methods, and you can honestly discount a study when there's a clear reason why it might have yielded a wildly inaccurate result (the example given ITT was the "draw a man" test administered to children who had never used pencils).
