IQ tests are just tests of ability on certain tasks. You can construct all kinds of "IQ tests" to measure different aspects of the brain.
The problem?
ALL of them correlate together, to such a high degree, that there's almost no need to even have separate tests. Someone's ability to keep their room organized, or learn a magic trick, correlates to their ability to sort shapes, or solve a math problem. It's insane, actually insane

There really seems to be some kind of "power level" to the brain. Some people are just....smarter.

The English gave Africa education in English style schools, offering the same curriculms. In 400 years the IQ may have moved 5 points, and it's unclear if that was the school, or the expectations of the society, or, quite frankly, if it's noise based on which tribes the English ended up holding sway.
Not all IQ is parental. You can educate a young mind to create more pathways. But there are hard limits by biology.
>>
>>472629588
Iq is a loaded term, and you use it on purpose. In reality, cognitive tests can be applied equally to all groups of humans as well as many animal species. The cuttlefish, for example, is an exceptionally smart organism and can past pretty much all of them. The only reason IQ is 'culturally biased' is that it uses white people as the baseline for setting the scoring meteric at 100, but that doesn't invalidate the test's implications because the test is primarily about logical reasoning and pattern recognition, not 'obscure white people trivia' or 'things you would only know if you lived in a middle class household' like you are trying to imply with your pilpul.

>Psychological traits cannot truly be inherited since the mind is immaterial
Your mind is a meat computer:
>Meat::silicon
>Synapses:: logical compute units
It IS 100% genetic in nature, because a more dense brain is going to perform better than once with less neurons & synapses.
In fact, even CPUs are under the hidden effect of the "Silicon lottery" where some CPUs are built better than others, and there fore are capable of higher performance.
Not all CPUs are alike, just like all brains.
You're WRONG.
Your brain is a unique organic entity, and the way it was formed is VERY important to your intelligence.
Can it be altered? Yes. Can it grow? Yes. But there's still a starting point, as well as a threshold optimal point at which acquiring certain traits is crucial to learning and becoming more intelligent.
You are wrong. Big smart brains are 100% inheritable. It's literally genetic hardware, just like the silicon in a goddamn CPU.

IQ doesn't measure intelligence of those who take the tests, but of those who create them.

If IQ measured intelligence results couldn't be skewed by experience and practice.

You cannot be "proven wrong" because you refuse to engage with the real world, living in some Platonic bubble of makebelieve.
Back in the real world, IQ is by definition a "metric", not a "psychological trait". It basically measures your neurological capacity to process information.
Like any measurement, it is affected by a margin of error or uncertainty. That's what makes it real in the first place, anything not affected by uncertainty is not a measurement but a Platonic form or mathematical object.

An individual chooses to spend his entire life practicing the different flavors of IQ tests -- and nothing else -- and consequently scores exceptionally well. Has the test measured his intelligence or the responsiveness and compliance to human conception? Do grades in school measure your intelligence or the conditions of your upbringing?
There's most certainly a genetic component to cognitive ability, but that's beside point. Do IQ tests measure intelligence? Compare the most sophisticated (by psychology standards) metholodogy to simple challenges presented to a myriad of different species.
Any basic, tangible (visual, haptic, auditive,...) test performed in very early childhood and any observation/fostering of natural, innate talents yields infinitely more valueable effects on and information about society and scope of human ability, than a formal IQ test taken at any other point in later life.

I was being facetious, anon. I don't think I cut it, at least not in his department. I did try to read some Jung some years ago and initially I was struck by how much his general outlook and criticism of modern society aligns with my own conclusions, but I remember getting to the part a he began explaining how dream symbolism works and how he interprets the dreams of his patients and that's where he lost me. I could follow the reasoning, more or less, but it felt so tenuous. I mulled over it a bit and decided that agreeing with someone on some things in the abstract doesn't mean much if my supposed understanding starts to crumble as soon as soon as the author tests me by applying it to the concrete. Either I'm too much of a brainlet or Jung was too much of a mystic, at least in spirit.

This is true in a way, or at least not falsifiable. Nobody can escape the basic conundrum that any description or perception of the material world is not itself part of the material world. This is important, but it is also so fundamental that it can be used to derail any conversation whatsoever.

Also, while I am not going to claim that "mentation" is a made-up word, as in a sense every word is "made-up", it is still a gay and sciency word that is also superfluous and poorly formed.

It's not a big deal. Use "mentation" if you like.
What is the Romanian translation of "mentation"? Or if you prefer the French or German or Russian one? If you have a statement you can only make in English and its meaning disappears once you translate it to another language, you are engaged in poetry, not rational cogitation.

"materialist metaphysics" is an oxymoron to begin with, as "metaphysics" literally means "beyond the material". You can be a materialist but then you don't have any metaphysics, or vice versa. The entire thing is a non-starter, there isn't even enough here to be "skeptical" of.

If you bother to distinguish between the physical and metaphysical, then by construction "perception" is where the two categories interact. If otoh you are a pure materialist, and your argument is "everything that we know and love is reducible to the absurd acts of chemicals", all I have to say is "Holy shit, a talking duck!"
>>
>>472637416
>"materialist metaphysics" is an oxymoron to begin with, as "metaphysics" literally means "beyond the material".
Like it or not, any thesis about the fundamental substance that underlies all of reality is a metaphysical thesis. It's not an empirical statement. You can't test it empirically. It's not a statement about how physical systems seem to behave, it's a statement about the very nature of physicality -- literally metaphysics. If you think this is a contradiction (at the very least, I would call it clownish hypocrisy), you can bring that up with materialists themselves, because it's THEIR contradiction.

Alfred Binet and Theodore Simon collaborated to come up with the Binet-Simon intelligence test. Lewis Terman adopted the work of Binet and Simon and derived an IQ test for people in the United States, his version of the test is called the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale.

David Wechsler declared that the Stanford-Binet test was biased against women, non-Whites and Jews. Subsequently, David Wechsler took the Stanford-Binet test, removed 90% of it, and then arbitrarily divided IQ into "mathematical" and "verbal" IQs, which has since become two of the most widely used IQ tests, known as the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale and the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children. These skewed IQ tests by David Wechsler emphasise the strength of Jewish "verbal intelligence" while de-emphasising Jewish weaknesses, such as logic and spatial intelligence.

William Stern coined the term "Intelligence Quotient", which is now often abbreviated as IQ. John Raven developed the Raven's Progressive Matrices IQ test, which remains one of the most widely used IQ tests administered today.

Alfred Binet, Theodore Simon, William Stern, David Wechsler, John Raven and Lewis Terman were all Jews.

An interesting question:
Why do people who claim to be aware of Jews, race and biological differences between populations defer to the concept of IQ made up by Jewish psychologists to justify their claims?

>>472640644
Concurrently, the only way Jews ever claimed to have a higher IQ is by extrapolating their "verbal test" to the IQ number, and the Jewish samples were sourced exclusively from small groups within elite institutions even though the Whites sampled in those same institutions scored higher. Otherwise, no general intelligence test, at least according to the Jewish metric of IQ, ever showed Jews to be more intelligent than Whites.

The claim of a generally higher Jewish IQ lacks any sound basis, since they are supported by arguments that are, at best, unfalsifiable and, at worst, unverifiable nonsense, all of which is based on dishonest statistical techniques and pseudo-scientific explanations that have been conjured ex post facto to justify the Jew's over-representation in the West.

People continue to make this claim of extraordinary Jewish intelligence because it is a benign way of confronting Jewish over-representation, just as it's used as an excuse for why Westerners should allow Jewish representation because Jews are simply smarter than everybody else. Thus, intimidating a false sense of inferiority that allows Jews to wield power far beyond the scope of their numbers if at all.

Furthermore, deferring to the narrative of IQ and other such abstractions impedes the abundant physical observations one can make of populations and their intelligence. In which case, anyone can simply look at the habitats that are populated by those in question and see that their societies contradict what any favourable abstractions imply.

IQ as a concept is inherently flawed if not useless and as a tool it is ill-defined. IQ may have some use, but it does not take into account the adaptive intelligence of the individual or even the frequency range of consciousness that the individual is capable of.

IQ is a numerical indicator of a person's place on the bell curve of intelligence (psychometric factor g) distribution in a population. Usually set up with a standard deviation of 15 points, and 100 corresponding to the average of first-world natives. It's one of the most consistent and repeatable attributes in all of psychometry.
>>
>>472630101
A dumb person can still specialize in some skill or task through enough repetition. A smart persions brain is more generalized, can accomplish multitude of complex tasks with less learning, it can better apply skills from one type of task to another task.

But many skilled workers can be dumb as rocks. Yet they can do intricate mechanical work efficiently if they spend enough time on it.

You are arguing about words. I am not a materialist, but my point is that a materialist does not suffer from any contradictions because he simply rejects the existence of the metaphysical.

My iq is 140+ and I can even post whatever but that's the truth. Jews basically will steal good ideas and deploy millions to accomplish them, rather than give the original idea or concept credit to anyone other than their cabal. You will see this in VC meetings, where they try to pump you for info and then deploy it. I had a meeting air force AFRL and they basically wanted everything up front for free, but I mean bro what about me?

It does, according to your own objection.

Ok, so you just spouted a meaningless phrase but you can't elaborate on it any further. It is 4chan, after all. In reality, the phenomenon of perception is as natural and as much a part of reality as anything else. It's not "metaphysical". Discussions about its underlying nature would be metaphysical discussions. The phenomenon itself has nothing to do with metaphysics.

The advantage of IQ is that it doesn't vary depending on the test used. Direct test results will vary depending on the test, so you can only compare direct results from people who have taken the same test.

It's simple; if there was an alternate method of measuring one's intelligence (unless you are contending that it is unquantifiable) that produced equal outcomes amongst the races, we would know about it. The media would shout it from the rooftops 10 times a day, like a religious call to prayer. Uppity negroes would be dancing in the streets, intellectually dabbing on whitey.

Neurological phenotypes are real, because practically every genetic study ever published confirms the hypothesis that evolution, natural selection, and heredity affect all parts of the body, not just the ones below the neck. Psychological predispositions such as general intelligence, autism-spectrum-related characteristics, ADHD-related characteristics, schizotypy, and dark-tetrad-related characteristics can be passed down from parent to child, and often are. I denounce all creationists because only an idiot would look at a 1000-times-replicated experiment and say "nope, this is fake".

This doesn't follow. "Intelligence" refers to various cognitive abilities. There have been a wide variety of tests devised to examine these. That all the tests of "intelligence" correlate with one another does not imply that there are universal testing practices (beyond obvious things like the examples I gave before). For example, some IQ tests involve no language at all, and just use visual pattern matching. That the trait measured by that IQ test correlates highly with a test of a person's ability to learn a foreign language does not imply that the tests are structured similarly. Again, what are you on about?

For example, there are no 400IQ surgeons because there are no 400IQ people (there aren't enough humans for there to be people 20 standard deviations from the norm), so if you example relies on there being a 400IQ surgeon, it necessarily does not reflect something which can happen in the real world. You couldn't pick that option because it is impossible, and when you remove the impossible, what remains is the extent of what options you actually have. You might as well say that you'd pick a cleric to cast a Heal spell on you.

Look, you dumb nigger animal, all I'm saying is that you could and should have made your trivial point in a credible way: yes, when it comes to surgery, past a certain IQ threshold, other factors like dexterity, knowledge and experience start to dominate, at least for routine surgeries. But you had to conflate this with the usual "everyone can make it" apologia about how you'd totally trust your life in the hands of someone literally dumber than average (but only if he had an impeccable and impossible track record).

No. That would be a difference in kind, rather than a difference in degree (a logical extreme).

I gave some here >>472645730. Care to explain what you mean by "relevant"? Relevancy would seem to be something which depends on your conception of what intelligence is, which you have so far refused to describe. I could say obvious things like "answering them involves brain activity", but brain activity is related to certain notions of intelligence, so that may or may not run afoul of your prohibition of commonalities that have to do with intelligence.

At any rate, I explained above why your repeated statement is wrong. You don't seem to have an argument here, so do you have anything new to say? Like what you mean by "intelligence"?

No. It's that IQ is great at measuring intelligence, but ability-based metrics are superior. I call for objective standards, which can be set so high that they exclude entire groups (IIRC the men's standard for the SEALs has never been cleared by a woman or no "unenhanced" woman). IQ isn't fixed, nor deterministic for most things. It's incredibly useful, but not for use in every situation.

IQ isn't but intellectual potential is.

True. Mindlets cope by telling themselves their degrees mean anything, while we've got plenty of examples of retards with meaningless degrees.
All that is required from you is memorization of the material for upcoming exams. You don't need to be bright to do that, just look at the amount of dumb whores with uni degrees.

>>
>>472648106
>That would be a difference in kind, rather than a difference in degree
Sufficient differences in degree can result in differences in kind. For example, altering the temperature of a material results in phase changes which produce very different material properties. In the case discussed earlier, such differences in degree result in the difference in kind of "something which may be encountered in the situation under discussion, and therefore which may be chosen as an option" to "something which does not ever occur in the situation under discussion, and therefore which may not be chosen as an option".

A radio is material. The signal is not. Both are required to tune into a signal, but the signal is non dependent on the radio. You seem to hold to the synaptic model of the mind. This is an outdated model. The Penrose model which instead describes the mind as a quantum phenomena tied to low interference environments created within the microtubule structure is seeing increasing support.

Sorry to burst your meat bubble, but you are most likely a resonant frequency within a universal quantum field that biology is essentially tuning into through the modulation of protein structures that create low interference environments through specific nano structures to enable quantum computation at biological temperatures.

You don't understand how probability density functions work, do you? There is no "object of measurement" because your ability to recognise patterns and draw logical conclusions is a metaphysical product of your neurological makeup, much like your personality. There is no "measurement unit" for IQ because in order to measure someone's IQ, you have to:
>test a large population and determine the mean and standard deviation of their scores
>renormalise their test scores so that the mean is equal to 100 and the SD is adjusted proportionally
>plot the individual test-taker's score against the population mean

IQ can be correctly used to predict mental retardation in all cases, there are no intelligent people below 100 IQ points. Below 90 begins to mild mental retardation which is instantly noticeable in all work settings. IQ has problems with correctly predicting the overall potential of people above 110+ IQ, as there are many cases of people who scored highly, but are basically useless due to concentrating all their energy on Mario 64 glitches etc.

You can not create qualia through mechanistic means. See my second link above. The best you can do is create NPC automata that mimic the behavior of a conscious being, but these automata will not live in a world of subjective qualia or experience the sensation of 'choice' which comes about by the intentional collapse of quantum states into single deterministic ones. The only way to create true AI is the same way our brains do it, through quantum computation.

I can see due to the rapidity of your response that you took the time to review the videos and their academic source material. You are truly a perfect example of the open minded, modern human being.

For others please be aware that when people spout out sentences like these full of vague science generalities like '''''chemicals'''' and pull statistics out of their head, that they are not actual scientists. Real scientists are conservative and skeptical lot. We do not speak out of our asses and when we do, we add a caveats like 'I think' or 'probably' or 'possibly'. People who mix vague scientific language like this with statements of absolute truth are closer to priests. They are priests who use the 'feel' of science to convince NPCs raised on science as their sole belief system. Mainly they attempt to convince them that they are nothing but meat, that their lives are insignificant and that they have no free will. It is of course not at all hard to see the political rationale behind convincing the herd of these particular postulates.

He doesn't understand it either, but he believes himself intellectually gifted, so it cannot be just a mass of specializing neurons delivering and transmitting information - it must be quantum computing connected to some mystical field, probably aether.

That's an EMF. A quantum field is a very different phenomena though it becomes confusing as all matter and energy has a quantum aspect to it, particularly small or zero mass particles. My field is biology, but I'll do my best to explain. A traditional field is local, but the quantum field is nonlocal in nature, meaning it has no set bounds. It exists on a level sometimes referred to as 'the quantum foam' or 'the plank grid'. This is kind of the bedrock of the universe where you can not go any smaller due to the limitations imposed by the Plank constant. Here you can get basically limitless variation in energy density with huge spikes of potential energy and then immediate cancellations of this energy. All of this insanity essentially gets zeroed out by the time you get to macroscopic scale but on the plank scale its all very real. This has been documented to some degree experimentally with what is called vaccuum energy. Basically it you press two very smooth plates REALLY close together, like Im talking less than nanometers apart, you can detect a pressure coming out from the space between even though going by Reddit science there should be no energy to be had there.

No. The necessary requirements have not changed, even if the entire population has gotten smarter over time. Someone with an IQ of 80 today is far more capable than someone from 200 years ago with an IQ of 80. Tying it to the number, rather than the demonstrated/proven ability is pointless.

Congratulations you just explained the necessity for duality and why any of us bother to incarnate in this fucking hell world.

To be srs though, I try to remain humble when dealing with shit that is way beyond current science. This is the opposite attitude of Reddit scientists who gurgle untested science juice and shrieik about muh atheism. So rather than reject all NDE experiences as just a dying brainfart, I've actually looked at tons of them trying to find commonalities. What I and many other intelligent and open minded researchers have concluded is that many NDE and OOB experiences are real and not explainable by mechanistic means. This is because the brain is often not in a physical state to process information and certainly not to process it better than normal (a common experience in these events). I do not arrogantly think I can fully explain why this shit happens nor do I want to project some outdated christian or other religious meaning onto it.

The universe has always existed, even without humans, and will always continue to exist, long after humans are all extinct and gone. Humans are not the center of the universe or the universe itself as this psychotic nonsense would have people believe, humans are merely a part of the universe, a very small and insignificant part.

of course it would be a logical mistake if one were to agree with you that mental phenomena and physical matter are disjunct and there can be no thing that is both. it is your position that this is a fact that follows simply by what the terms mean and the relation between their kinds. other people disagree. so what you just wrote is what is usually referred to as 'begging the question' -- in this way any substantial disagreement can be trivially and obviously fallaciously be framed as a logical error of the opponent.

You must be fun at parties. Quantum fields are not collapsed purely by human minds. This is misconception, as you are no doubt aware. In fact all interaction will collapse a quantum field. If a seagull observes an electron it will collapse, if the electron is absorbed by an atom and reemitted as a photon it will collapse, if it hits a detector in some physicist's experiment it will collapse. So QP does not say that the human mind creates reality. What is DOES definitively say is that Perception Is Interaction. This can be taken one of two ways. One is to deny that subjective awareness exists, deny your own experience and say perception is merely physical interaction. The other is to not deny observed reality and instead say that all interaction is perception, ours, the seagull, the detector, all of it. In other words the entire universe is constantly perceiving itself. This solution, though stranger, is more scientific because it does not require discarding observable evidence for the existence of subjective reality. Oddly enough this second solution also matches up with the conclusion of every mystic tradition on this planet going back to hunter gatherer shamans.

>The g factor typically accounts for 40 to 50 percent of the between-individual performance differences on a given cognitive test, and composite scores ("IQ scores") based on many tests are frequently regarded as estimates of individuals' standing on the g factor. The terms IQ, general intelligence, general cognitive ability, general mental ability, and simply intelligence are often used interchangeably to refer to this common core shared by cognitive tests.

This is at the level of defining terms. Do you have alternative meanings you would prefer to use?

Didn't read. If you and your butt buddy were regular morons, as opposed to literal nonsentient lumps of programmable meat, you'd just insist that neurons give rise to mental phenomena (by some mysterious means that no one can explain for some reason) but you're broken bots so you'll actually die on the hill of making absurd category errors like "mental phenomena are made up of neurons".

Nigger your brain puts drugs in your head. When you see a beautiful woman, when you are in the first few weeks of a new relationship, when the news media feeds you fear. All these perceptions are causing your brain to release chemicals into the synaptic space which alter perception. When you die a drug will be released which puts you in a highly altered state. If you were a real scientist, you would know the difference between a true natural category and one that humans artificially make by drawing imaginary lines through their imaginary models. Enjoy that final DMT trip btw

Did you seriously just engage in idiotic pedantry to try to win this argument? The point is the observation of the wave function is irrelevant because it has its properties whether it is observed or not. It doesn't matter whether it's a human or a seagull observing it or whether it's some kind of external energy field. You must be an actual fucking idiot to try and make this argument. Holy fucking shit.

>That's an EMF. A quantum field is a very different phenomena
Electromagnetic fields are quantum fields. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_electrodynamics Photons can produce the photoelectric effect through quantum interactions. Anyway, your post doesn't address the content of my post being replied to, and instead contains a bunch of misunderstandings about quantum mechanics. For example, you have the Casimir effect backwards.

It is hard to address this level of stupidity in the surgeon example. The most likely explanation is that he is engaging in rhetoric and not dialectic. He is not discussing in good faith, so we need to read for intent, not content. For one he suggests that surgeons are intelligent. That is a tell.

My point all along in case you haven't noticed is that this thread is filled with dumb fucks who have had babies first DMT trip or overdosed on too much weed and had crazy hallucinations of the multiverse and the elves and the medium between universes with all the universes laid out like little spheres etc etc etc. ever wonder why everyone who experiences these things always ends up describing the perceptions and exactly the same way? CHEMICALS.

I'm not trying to argue any point by saying to stop using drugs. I'm just saying to stop using drugs so it stops fucking with your head. These fucking hallucinations are melting all of your brains and filling your heads with stupid idiotic ideas.

Just to be clear, I'm not really responding to you because that is very clearly pointless. This is just for the sake of others browsing the thread. People like this redditor want to spread the lack of meaning and hope that their philosophy have created in their own minds. It's just the old misery loves company adage repeating again. You can tell them by looking at the tone of their argument. Ask yourself, do they consider other points of view? Do they attack the arguer or the argument? Do they think rationally or only in terms of the dogma they espouse? By asking these questions you can tell whether you are dealing with an actual open minded scientist or a Redditor. Also for anyone who is interested, physics actually did prove that particles in a wave state have no defined properties until that wave state collapses. It is not a simple lack of knowledge as Einstein thought, but a true metaphysical unknown. I can't recall the definitive experiment off the top of my mind because again this is not my field but it used some simple but rather clever probability math along with an analysis of entangled particles.

It's inherent to the concepts involved.
>In philosophy of mind, qualia are defined as instances of subjective, conscious experience.
What does this involve? Well, there's some sensation to be experienced. That is, there is some external information which is to interpreted as an experience. So this perceptual signal (whatever it is, however it's encoded, whether it's based on a real external reality or is from a demon deceiving you) needs to be taken in and processed. Then the mind has to be consciously aware of this sensation. That is, there needs to be a self-monitoring process by which the mind can track and interpret its own processes (since that's what consciousness is). Any questions?

>>472651669
The reason you did that is because of chemicals. Just FYI. You love the attention of thinking that you're somehow dunking on me while others are watching because you're probably a woman or extremely gay and feminine and so love the attention adoration of others because it makes you feel good because your brain releases chemicals from that.

>What do YOU mean by "material world"?
What which can be perceived by the senses, or which produces consequences which are perceptible by the senses. That's what science is concerned with, so your statement on its face appears to be a contradiction in terms. Care yo explain what in the world you actually mean?

You're missing the point. The existence or nonexistence of a transcendent soul makes no difference to the requirement for mechanistic data processes (since that's how data is processed). If a transcendent soul is involved, it just means that the computational substrate is something other than flesh and blood.

That's not a definition of "material". Try again.

That's part of the general "contains a bunch of misunderstandings about quantum mechanics" bit which was unrelated to what I was talking about in the post being replied to, so I didn.t go through it in detail. As for this bit, gravity may or may not have a quantum aspect, but the theoreticians are still out on that.

>Proof?
It's tautological. If you use the conventional meanings of qualia, consciousness, etc. that's what they imply because that's what those words mean. I could put it in syllogisms if you prefer.
