Do you mean intelligence? There are different kinds. IQ doesnt mean anything except in a controlled study for retardation and impairment.

Annual income is the best indicator. After that overall health factors. There are even studies that show simply being given more money increases IQ by 19 points on average. So being born into a rich family is better than any amount of school or good diet

That sounds like autism and autistic kids have an average IQ of 70

You sound retarded for sure

Autism can have a mild impact on IQ but most autists are severe

Is English a hard language for you, simp?

Inceldom is a sign of low iq.

yes another instance of you being braindead

wrong. retards get laid more often

you must be chad of retards then

>instance
Yikes, you were an outcast werent you

man just read statistics

Nope if you cant do something 15 year old guys do every day, you're low iq.

Vegans and incels probably are the lowest IQ

this doesn't have anything to do with intelligence

source on that man?
my friend always look like he's on lsd and he's an sjw.

using simple words doesn't mean that you're cool

People are generally pretty good at figuring out how smart others are simply by listening to them talk. At first, people assume the most extroverted people are the smartest, because they're talking so much, but over some time (I forget how long) they come closer to actually pinpointing who's smart and who isn't.

There are several things correlated with IQ. For example, the number of gods you believe in is correlated with IQ. Atheists tend to be smarter than monotheists, who tend to be smarter than polytheists, who tend to be smarter than animists.

Libertarians tend to be smarter than liberals, who tend to be smarter than conservatives.

Median lifetime income is also correlated with IQ, more than anything else we've been able to quantify.

People's sex lives also are correlated with IQ. People with high IQs tend to lose their virginity later in life and have fewer partners than people with lower IQs. Most of the sex going on outside is between people with an IQ between 70 and 110. IIRC being on the lower end is different for men and women, borderline retarded men have lots of sex whereas borderline retarded women don't.

Fair features are also correlated with IQ, but I think this is dubious because I doubt the studies were intraracial.

>Do you mean intelligence? There are different kinds
Not really. There are different aspects, but they all correlate with each other. This is like saying there are different masses. No, there's one mass, but there are differences between height, weight, etc.
>IQ doesnt mean anything except in a controlled study for retardation and impairment
Nassim Taleb and David Pakman are brainlets.
>There are even studies that show simply being given more money increases IQ by 19 points on average
Can I see these studies? Because that sounds just wrong.

because the people who do arent gonna wanna talk about it, brainlet

Problem solving, especially without prior knowledge or skills about the topic.

and the best of all, race

>not really
The modern view is that the different types of intelligence are not correlated. Although a learning disability would impair multiple types.
>brainlets
Who are you talking about
>can I see these studies
Go ahead. And read the actual studies instead of just the numerous cited articles and ted talks on it

typically, smart people have high IQ's

>100% of the average and dumb ones don't want to share their score
yeah I believe that

do you know 100% of the average or dumb ones? the pool youre thinking from is extremely biased which explains why you dont know of any scores below 110. and the few you probably do know who know their iq is indeed less than 110, they still arent going to want to flaunt it. duh.

>online IQ tests wouldn't give you biased scores so you wouldn't question the legitimacy of the score
>only a small portion of the entire population shares their IQ scores online
this is how you think

>The modern view is that the different types of intelligence are not correlated
If you're talking about emotional intelligence, musical intelligence, etc., that's bunk. It was some dude's idea and people who loathe IQ latched onto it, but it's not credible at all.

Also, "modern view" is meaningless. People, like you and I, publish papers full of their own biases and propaganda, and what they say may or may not be honest or significant. What matters is the data, the sample size, the replication rate, and so on.

My psychiatrist could tell by the way I would speak. He requested an IQ test and it confirmed that I'm a genius.

Don't rely too much on IQ.
Considering any good definition of it, intelligence is very closely related to growing up in a healthy environment - getting adequate nutrition and being intelectually stimulated(tipically, by educated parents).
This is related to many factors in appears true to the average retard since African countries have absolute shit IQ results, which is related to their intelligence. However, it is clearly a matter of correlation only: those countries are also poor and violent, so if you understood what I said before you will understand why they're not as smart as the european countries. No gene appears to be correlated to intelligence, and when tests account for similar upbringings, the difference in intelligence dissapears.

My psychiatrist keeps bringing up my intelligence, but my intuition tells me that he's just trying to boost my confidence.

I've taken an IQ test, one taken by a psychiatrist, so no bs internet fakes.
There are different aspects to that: your memory gets tested, 'math'/problem solving intelligence, there was something to do with how you would interpret words and sentences, even if you don't even know certain words ('language' iq - not the right word, but English isn't my first language), etc etc
They also told me that some people might have high scores on problem solving, but there's a big gap with their 'language' iq, which results in frustration because those people can't properly voice their ideas.
So the different components of an iq test are very important

It absolutely does. You're not even smart enough to get laid

I don't know why you're with him/her, but it could very much be an exercise to get you to feel positive about yourself

I grew up in a fucked up household and have very high IQ. But I also used to have several disfunctions took me a while, and very active effort, to overcome.

>My psychiatrist keeps bringing up my intelligence, but my intuition tells me that he's just trying to boost my confidence.
Why don't you just take the test?

There's plenty of introverted 'geniuses' that don't get laid.
Trying to put out statements like that, trying to get it to apply to everyone is a sign of low iq

>I grew up in a fucked up household and have very high IQ
Nature vs nurture, one doesn't exclude the other
There's plenty of smart people in shitty ghetto's and shitty environments, who simply don't get the opportunities to shine
They'd simply score higher on an iq test if they grew up in a good environment

That is absolutely possible. I aplaud your effort to overcome.
But one must wonder... what if you had grown up in an adequate household?

>Annual income is the best indicator.
>one of the smartest guys in the world is a fuckin' bouncer at a bar

Anecdotal cases vs general trends
This really isn't that hard to understand

Just pay attention, if you're observant, you'd notice little things like how fast someone just calculated a math problem mentally, how well they solve problems or how witty they can be in a conversation, all stemming from different kinds of intelligence.

It's hard to say how better things would've been, honestly.
My interests as a child went along the lines of computers and nuclear physics, so maybe I would have a more safe and stable career. But now it's more about making money in financial markets, which I became able to do so well, in part, due to my tendency of jumping in with both feet and putting everything on the line to get where I wanna go.

Here's another correlation you fucking moron: those countries are poor and violent because of shit IQ's.

Yep. It genuinely makes me cringe every time he does it. Painfully transparent.
It was never offered to me.

That sounds more like a lack of ambition, something that matters far more than intelligence. Some of these geniuses go undetected because they don't have passion for the very things that they're well suited for.

The data supports a model of multiple types of intelligence which are fairly independent

>correlation
>fucking moron
>poor and violent BECAUSE of shit IQ's
That's causation you dumb fucking cunt, not correlation

>intelligence is very closely related to growing up in a healthy environment - getting adequate nutrition
Being malnourished wl lower your IQ, so will being hit in the head by a truck, but most of us are not malnourished.
>being intelectually stimulated(tipically, by educated parents).
This is false. Several programs have attempted to increase IQ, even from an early age, and while using your brain often will make you do a little better on an IQ test, it isn't like you can keep increasing it, and those effects disappear once you stop. However, saying this at all is a little misleading. Is a sleepy person less intelligent than a fully awake person? Well, yeah, in a way.
>African countries have absolute shit IQ results, which is related to their intelligence. However, it is clearly a matter of correlation only: those countries are also poor and violent, so if you understood what I said before you will understand why they're not as smart as the european countries
No, there's still a significant gap even when you control for environment.
>No gene appears to be correlated to intelligence
Yes there are.
>when tests account for similar upbringings, the difference in intelligence dissapears
No it doesn't.

You're just blatantly lying. Adoption studies have found that when a white couple adopt an Asian or black baby, do those babies grow up with a white IQ? Nope. Not at all. Their adoptive parents' IQ is completely unrelated to their own. They end up having an Asian and black IQ, and overall cognitive profile.

That depends on what you call a genius. Someone who fails to use his talent because of repeated bad choices is not smart in my opinion.

And no, relative income is the best indicator of intelligence, and it has a modest causal effect. It doesnt mean all rich people are geniuses or that all poor people are morons, but in terms of all decision making, communication skills, problem solving, etc. you will have a much easier time finding intelligent people among the wealthy.

To an extent I agree that race, the style of clothes someone wears, and size of family are indicators but those wont have the same magnitude. People are much more likely to value money than any of those

>gene
Actually in terms of genetics regression to the mean plays into it. Feel free to identify any single gene or coupling that will make someone intelligent lol

Yeah, they become doctors, lawyers, scientists, and engineers, mathematicians.

Many human traits aren't decided by just having or not having certain genes.
You try to use this picture to prove something, but are clearly not familiar with basic concepts in biology.
There are a lot of genes related with intelligence, it isn't just as simple as having the most of them.
Having one 'turned off', in combination with others 'turned on', might actually boost your intelligence compared to the ones who have them all 'turned on'.
Nature vs nurture is still a debate, but the one thing that is very clear is that both matter.
Also: countries with worse education, will have a negative impact on the inhabitants' scores on iq tests
