Huh. Certainly goes against my intuition. Weren't math majors the highest IQ group among undergrads? At least for Germany, I definitely know that to be true.
I might need to read more carefully parse and fill some statistical knowledge gaps to learn what exactly it was you did and what you claim.
This is interesting to me. I always excelled at reading comprehension and vocab, and general mathematical ability too. But my strong suit (I only did free online tests, though), is spatial ability. I like the VPR Model of intelligence, that puts rotational ability right in the same league with Verbal and Spatial, as it clusters differently from general spatial ability. I wonder how it measures up against other test batteries for g-loading. I suppose it is also a matter of g not having great internal stability when it comes to very high (and very low?) scores.
Super interesting. That “reading comprehension” comes out on top is both surprising and not. This means that having a high reading comprehension requires high general intelligence right? (I know “requires” isn’t the relationship being statistically tested but is it a fair assumption to infer this?) And this means reading comprehension is likely unlearnable at the upper tail?
Our polarised media environment is basically predicated on poor reading comprehension. Journalists can slap on a misleading article title and then the truth is buried in the difficult words below the title. These data explain why so many people disagree on simple news stories. Because their interpretation of articles is limited by poor reading comprehension, so they’re just steered by biased headlines.
In other words, truth is gate-kept by intelligence.
can you do that thing where you estimate people's IQ for me plz
Not enough information
💪💪💪

What's N/A, and why does it have a g-loading of just under 0.7?
Forgot to explain this, it's a subtest that doesn't fit neatly into any category.

Don’t these results represent the weightings used to normalise female and male IQ scores?
They don't because the results are within white men; there's an alternative interpretation here.
How much ai has helped you producing these, rather impressive to have such large samples
I mostly ask AI for lists or advice rather than tasks.
Did you control height for sex?
I excluded women and nonwhites.
Even transmen?
No. Though the data source is over 60 years old, so I assume that's not an issue.
