phds are barely above average IQ in 2025, what are the scientific implications of this?
>>
>>16796277
>what are the scientific implications of this?
The scientific implications of you not understanding the use of absolute differences when using an arbitrary scale should be a ban.
>>
Bachelors degrees are basically band pass filters designed for normies to succeed but punish low intellect and high intellect people by favoring social normalizations.
I mean just control for midwit shit like history or literature and you’ll see people in mathematics have high IQs.
120 level pattern recognition is basically a minimum requirement to survive at that level. To be honest the average person is like a toddler in comparison.
>>

>absolute differences when using an arbitrary scale
You can see where "<HS" stands on that scale, so OP is correct and you can seethe harder.

We know.

what science is that?
the one in which women have penises and pregnant women and children need to take experimental vaccines for the common flu?

if you had above average IQ you would have ditched academia

you don't need p-values for this data, mouthbreather

You have to subdivide STEM from non-STEM degrees and further subdivide by race.

@grok is this true?
>>
>>16796277
I am not sure how to interpret this. Does it basically means that you can't really increase your intelligence with education?
>>
>>16796994
i think it's the reverse, in theory there should be a filter and you should be intelligent to be able to do a PhD, but that's not true anymore, retards can get one too. it may look better if you separate science degrees from meme degrees though
>>

?

Chinese century.

I'm surprised it's even higher than college degree. You need to be a retard to do a PhD given its negative ROI.
t. PhD

Depending on the religion, they actually tend to have higher average IQs than most STEM-adjacent fields.

Theology degrees are no joke you shouldn't underestimate them just because you think everyone is on th elevel of your local pastor
>>
>>16796277
To be succesful in academia you don't need a high IQ, though if we consider it a merit of intellect then it will be an advantage.

I think you need just some external system where you can store and manipulate facts, ideas and thoughts. And having a high IQ isn't a requirement for using this external system.

A book by Sönke Ahrens called "How to Take Smart Notes" has a lot to say about this topic.

those look Russian. They are a lot of fucked up people there and majority do not care about rules like:

Actually it was peer reviewed. It was deemed not publishable. In other words it failed peer review.
>>
>>16798182
>paper exposes PhD-holding academoids as a bunch of retards

Pottery. Trolling aside, it's been long-established that """peer-review""" is an anti-science scam.
>>
>>16798192
The only pottery here is you not understanding how peer review works. The evidence is in this brief exchange of posts. When you learned you were mistaken about your misrepresentation of what occurred, you fabricated another story instead.
>>
>>16798199
Joke's on (You). I'm a seasoned peer-reviewer and I know exactly how this scam works. I bet you never published a paper. You're not a scientist. You have no STEM degree. You're just a redditor.
>>
Peer review was literally developed by the royal society to censor new threatening ideas in like the 1600s
>>
>>16798207
I accept your whiny concession (even if it's full of lies)
>>
>>16798210
I accept your lack of a STEM degree and published papers, as displayed in this post and will be further displayed in all subsequent posts.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Thank you for your acknowledgment of my superiority. I genuinely appreciate it.

You're not a scientist. Seethe more.

Sometimes the difference can be a lot sometimes marginal.

For the next month I will make one post on one /sci/ thread. Just to offer any intelligent and educated anons this advice:

Quit this place. Its toxic and a waste of your time.
There are so few good faith discussions, its not worth the effort to find them.
The vast majority of posts are made by idiots, samefags, and bots.

The majority of people using this site are depressed losers who seek attention, any attention. They come here to lash out and act smart because in real life they are either ignored or bullied

There is no Science to be discussed here that is worth the effort of digging through dozens of troll bait threads and hundreds of derailment posts.
You can find real science discussion and learning in far better places.
Do not waste your time here like I did for over a year. Its addictive for some, it becomes a habit for others, like all social media its any easy trap to fall into.
>I like rage baiting retards!
That is too easy, but you are wasting your time instead of being productive for your own benefit.
>But occasionally you can find some good ideas!
You can find them elsewhere without shoveling a ton of shit out the way to uncover them
>Sometimes I just try to explain things to people who are genuinely interested.
Chances are they are more likely being deliberately retarded just to waste your time, and there are better places for genuine people to learn.

Have you ever wondered why this board is so poorly moderated? Because it is not a science board. Its an idiot entertainment board. If you are happy with that then stay. But I am getting out, I hope you do too.

Lmfao shut the fuck up agi bot

>>16798411
performative contradiction. You come back every day to warn others because cognitive dissonance won't allow you to see that you aren't saving anybody with your martyrdom complex and you are really stuck here forever. This is your price of admission.
>>
>>16798333
P values literally show probability of something happening again based on how many times the trial was done against the hypothesis
>>
Hey this thread must be full of real smart people like willing to trawl through stacks of papers on a topc so I hope you can answer my question

Is there any evidence that viruses actually can be transmitted from human to human under normal circumstances?
>>
>>16798558
WRONG
>>
>>16796277
>The rich are getting their retarded children degrees and PhD's
>They do this by making college super expensive so only they can afford it
>Hire an army of personal tutors because their children are too slow and unmotivated
>Demonize ChatGPT and AI use of poor students so they don't get the same advantages as hiring a personal tutor

The wealthy in America are soulless and buy their children's way in college. College is already too expensive here so who do you think can even afford to make it to a PhD? There are certainly brilliant PhD's out there but it's a case by case basis.

Again, simply divide it between actual STEM versus non-STEM. The non-STEM stuff is almost all a matter of opinion and relativism anyway.

>>16796277
How can the curve for Grad/Prof degree extend down past 75?? Shouldn't there be at least some lack of symmetry here?
>>
>>16798840
If we're counting only STEM fields, maybe. This includes stuff like gender studies and whatever. To pass in those "academic fields" you only have to have the "correct" opinions.
>>
The only thing wrong is the distribution showing 150 nobody has a MR of even 150 lol
>>
>>16796277
graduate degrees and professional degrees should not be mixed together. a master's in communications does not require similar intellectual rigor to medicine or law.
>>
>>16798270
there are plenty of data sets that are perfectly valid, that will never pass peer review, because they hold "unacceptable" conclusions within them, just look at eugenics, perfectly valid, works great for eliminating downies, will you ever see a eugenics paper published on raising population iq these days? absolutely not.

>>16798673
Dear sir, could you provide me with a sauce for that picture of yours?
