End of story, really. -- Posted by G Sus at 11:54 am on Jan. 10, 2009 my iq is double that of the average of mozambique -- Posted by kidd rune at 12:19 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 Since there are countries where the average IQ is well below the cutoff for mental retardation, I think it's quite clear that IQ tests are not actually a valid test of intelligence across cultures. End of story, really. That doesn't prove anything. -- Posted by maggie666 at 12:32 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 why italy is so hight?? its not possible -- Posted by kidd rune at 1:35 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 why italy is so hight?? its not possible It's just two points above average... -- Posted by maggie666 at 2:08 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 Quote: from kidd rune at 1:35 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 why italy is so hight??   its not possible It's just two points above average... they are first in europe... -- Posted by kidd rune at 2:12 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 they are first in europe... That's just according to that book you know. Germany has been estimated at 102-107 before - so has the Netherlands. Sweden has been estimated at 104 in some studies. Poland at 106 by Richard Lynn AFTER the publication of the above book. -- Posted by maggie666 at 2:14 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 they should do new reserch -- Posted by kidd rune at 2:17 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 Quote: from maggie666 at 5:14 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 they should do new reserch They do. Probably the same rate as census records. -- Posted by LoveKay at 4:04 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 haha.... -- Posted by Blue Baby at 4:47 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 IQ tests are not fair. I have never taken an IQ test where the questions are in any of the Philippine languages, they're always in English. Those native English speakers have a great advantage over us in this. -- Posted by kidd rune at 8:01 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 IQ tests are not fair. I have never taken an IQ test where the questions are in any of the Philippine languages, they're always in English. Those native English speakers have a great advantage over us in this. Most IQ tests are made so that it's not a test of how educated you are but how much you understand - language would have little effect. -- Posted by jakelong at 9:37 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 Everyone bows to the Asian master race!   -- Posted by Blue Baby at 11:59 pm on Jan. 10, 2009 Quote: from kidd rune at 12:01 pm on Jan. 11, 2009 IQ tests are not fair.

Not all "Asians" are up there, just the yellow ones. -- Posted by kidd rune at 1:28 pm on Jan. 11, 2009 I know that. But the instructions are in English without translations. They're not supposed to be that hard to understand - the IQ test was made for everyone to understand the question, but only some being able to answer. -- Posted by Blue Baby at 7:02 pm on Jan. 11, 2009 Quote: from kidd rune at 5:28 am on Jan. 12, 2009 I know that.

Yes, but still it would have been easier to understand if it were in the taker's native tongue (especially word problems). -- Posted by jakelong at 8:19 pm on Jan. 11, 2009 Quote: from ronpaul691 at 10:38 am on Jan. 11, 2009 Oriental master race.
