Posted by JayMan on Wed Apr 6 11:40:12 2011, in response to Re: Why Does Everything Suck?, posted by Osmosis Jones on Wed Apr 6 09:24:02 2011. STATING A FACT IS NOT RACIST! It not racist to point out that something is true, provided it is true and not a sweeping generalization. Saying "white men can't jump" is obviously not true and is racist. Saying blacks dominate sprint-based sports, and in fact many sports in general is NOT racist because it is a simple statement of fact.If statistical statements (something that is true only on average, not of every last individual) are properly qualified as such, they are not racist or disparaging in and of themselves. |

Just go to tools and select text.Without knowing what you're claiming specifically, I don't have anything to respond to. Rushton's and Jensen's discussion on brain size clearly indicate a correlation between brain size and IQ and increase trend in brain size as you go black -> white -> E. Asian. |

Yeah, and that's a drawback with the science about race differences: people jump to all sorts of (ill-founded) conclusions. Note to any and all black people here (all people in fact): evidence for race differences in intelligence and other traits only apply to group averages and have no bearing on individuals. I am not saying anyone is dumb because they are black (nor for that matter am I saying anyone is smart because they are white/E. Asian/Jewish). This, essentially, has nothing to do with YOU (everybody) as a person. But this has implications for society in general, something we would do well to understand and appreciate. |

I don't think white people are more prone to any of this (look at Africa today if you doubt this). It's just that white people have been more of a position to carry it out. Because of white dominance (partly due to their greater average intelligence) whites have made up more of your corporate sharks/politicians/kings/corrupt generals. |

To emphasize, perhaps they're intelligent in a different way not yet discovered due to differences in origin & misunderstandings of each race's thinking abilities.As I mentioned, difference races have different average mental strengths irrespective of their average g-scores. One group who possess the lowest g-scores, even lower than most blacks, are the Australian Aborigines, who have an average IQ in the 60s. Yet, they are incredibly directionally oriented, and can point which way they are oriented geographically down to the inch (and that finds its way into their languages, even to the point that their languages are geocentric and not egocentric like ours are (you say not in front of oneself, but "north of oneself"). Blacks have a talent for improvisational creativity that lends itself to certain sports like basketball and football (especially on the defensive positions). Just look at all the things blacks do with language. In short, blacks are better at just coming up with shit on the fly. Black stereotypes are worst than stereotypes for other races, and I think that instead of dwelling on them like you are, we focus on the positive & start to improve our image from there. I'm not dwelling on the negative stereotypes, I just so happen to mention the negative ones. I could have (and perhaps should have) mentioned the positive black stereotypes as well, like black domination of many big-league sports (as long as they don't involve swimming), that blacks are better dancers; and that blacks are better entertainers: many of the best comedians are black, like one of my favorite comedians and surely one of the greatest of all time, Chris Rock, and others like Martin Lawrence, Cedric the Entertainer, D.L. Hugely, and even Snoop Dogg, who sure the hell put "The Situation" to shame on Donald Trump's Roast on Comedy Central—along with other legends like Richard Pryor or Eddie Murphy in his day. VS: This talent for improvisation lends itself well to those careers. Blacks are also more extraverted and hence more charismatic (i.e. more socially/alpha masculine). Naturally also some of the best cuisine is black, as I definitely prefer food from my home culture Jamaica—but then maybe I'm biased because I grew up on it. But, exactly opposite to IQ, cuisine is something that is negatively correlated with latitude, getting worse as you go away from the equator. |

Wow you're annoyingHowever, a Black-White difference in brain size is not always found, as shown in a compilation of data from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration [111]. When brain size differences between Blacks and Whites are found, they may have environmental causes. There are several other anomalies for the race/brainsize/ IQ hypothesis. For example, the brain-size/IQ correlation has not been shown to be causal. If bigger brains were smarter because of their size, we would expect to find a correlation within families. Siblings who get larger brains by luck of the genetic draw should also be the ones who have higher IQ scores. In fact, however, there is no such correlation. Schoenemann et al. [114] found that the sibling with the larger brain has no higher IQ on average than the sibling with the smaller brain. Another anomaly is that Albert Einstein’s brain was decidedly smaller, at 1,230 grams, than the overall average found for Blacks in the studies by Rushton. In Ecuador there exists a group of very short-stature individuals whose head size is several standard deviations below the mean [115]. These individuals have not merely normal intelligence but unusually high intelligence, with a majority being among the highest ranking in their school class. Since 1 cubic centimeter of brain tissue contains millions of brain cells and billions of synapses, race differences in brain size help to explain their IQ differences. Indeed, if the racial differences in brain size did not relate to cognitive ability, it would be a mystery why such differences in number of neurons would ever have evolved since they are metabolically very expensive. |

Posted by JayMan on Wed Apr 6 15:18:37 2011, in response to Re: Why Does Everything Suck?, posted by Osmosis Jones on Wed Apr 6 14:36:12 2011. Rushton & Jensen wrote this paper as a point-by-point critique of the book Intelligence and How to Get It by Richard Nisbett, in which Nisbett doubts race differences—and individuals differences for that matter—in intelligence and the heritability of such. As such, Rushton & Jensen wrote this paper with Nisbett's words followed by their own rebuttal. What you quoted was Nisbett's (erroneous) claims about the connection between brain size and intelligence, which Rushton & Jensen in their following segment debunk, which summed up says:1. Individuals with bigger brains do have higher IQ's than their siblings. 2. The size of Einstein's brain was measured after his death at 76 years of age! Brains shrink in adulthood so the comparison is misleading. 3. The short Ecuadorians do not perform better than their normal size compatriots but about the same. Besides, in addition to smaller brains, they also have smaller bodies, so their level of encephalization (brain size relative to body size) is the same. The last paragraph you quote was the beginning of Rushton's & Jensen's response, which pretty much explains the situation with brain size and its relationship to intelligence. |

"The American Psychological Association in a 1996 report stated that the US racial IQ gap was not the result of bias in the content or administration of tests, nor simply reflect differences in socio-economic status. They go on to state that cultural factors may be appropriate but have little direct empirical support, nor is there such support for a genetic interpretation, and that presently no one knows the cause of the differential." |

That is the official position of the APA (as of 1996), and within it does state that the evidence shows that test bias and poverty are not the causes of the achievement gap, and no evidence for cultural forces have been found. As for saying no one knows the cause that is, well, them being politically correct, for as you see in the paper, there is abundant evidence pointing to a considerable genetic component. |

A good general rule is that Wikipedia isn't a good place to get the final word on any topic for which there is academic controversy, because owing to its policy of neutrality it will present both "sides" of the argument, even if both sides do not deserve merit.It's OK to be critical, as you should be. And, at this point, it is possible in principle for race differences in intelligence to due to environmental factors, but in light of all the evidence that is extremely unlikely. (If blacks are poor because they are oppressed or started poor, why are they poor the world over, even in countries that have been black-run for centuries, and why do other initially underprivileged groups, like Japanese indentured servants in Brazil, now do well?) You have to pose bigger and bigger stretches for that to be the case, and after awhile, Occam's Razor cuts more deeply. |

(If blacks are poor because they are oppressed or started poor, why are they poor the world over, even in countries that have been black-run for centuries, and why do other initially underprivileged groups, like Japanese indentured servants in Brazil, now do well?) You have to pose bigger and bigger stretches for that to be the case, and after awhile, Occam's Razor cuts more deeply. I'd personally have to consider whatever other factors there may be besides intelligence before I can give a firm answer on that. |

Even if it is or isn't, what does that have to do with the differential achievement of different racial groups there (Brazil has blacks, whites, Native Americans, pardos that are a mix of the previous three and E. Asians living side by side; the hierarchy in terms of wealth and scholastic achievement still goes black -> brown -> white -> E. Asian there)? |
