	What does IQ mean? A Clear Definition of Intelligence Quotients
		It would be unfair to treat IQ tests with all the atrocities that happened here, but at the same time it would be naive to declare that they did not have some effect.
		The problem with the IQ test is that some of the systems that are involved in doing well in IQ tests, are not necessarily transferred to other areas of life.
		IQ tests, I predict, will continue to exist and will be improved upon as we understand more and more about how our minds work.

		The original 1972 IQ light logo and packaging graphics were designed by Damien Harrington, and used the font Futura Black, a typeface created in 1930 by Paul Renner.
		For the relaunch of IQ light new packaging graphics were produced using Eurostile type.

	The Question of "Genius"
		The IQ was determined by dividing mental age by chronological age, moving the decimal point two places to the right, and adding one or two zeros as necessary.
		It has been said that a 140 IQ is a "genius" score, however there is no definition, as such, in either of my psychological dictionaries about "genius." Neither is there an IQ score ranked as "genius." That 140 IQ is actually a misunderstanding.
		An IQ score means nothing without the name of the test by which it was determined.

	IQ Basics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
		Originally, "IQ" tests were created to be able to identify children who might need special education due to their retarded mental development (1).
		It compares people of the same age or age category and assumes that IQ is normally distributed, that the average (mean) is 100 and that the standard deviation is something like 15 (IQ tests sometimes differ in their standard deviations).
		High IQ societies ask for certain percentile scores on IQ tests for you to be eligible to join them.

	History of IQ Tests
		The IQ is the ratio of “mental age” to chronological age, with 100 being average.
		In addition, Binet feared that IQ measurement would be used to condemn a child to a permanent “condition” of stupidity, this negatively affecting his or her education and livelihood:
		Through Goddard's and Terman's efforts the notion that intelligence tests were accurate, scientific, and valuable tools for bringing efficiency to the schools resulted in assigning the IQ score an almost exalted position as a primary, definitive, and permanent representation of the quality of an individual.

	Human Intelligence: The Bell Curve
		IQ scores match, to a first degree, whatever it is that people mean when they use the word intelligent, or smart in ordinary language.
		Recent narrowing of the average IQ gap between fl and white Americans (about 3 IQ points) is attributed to a lessening of low fl scores and not an overall improvement in fl scores on average.
		The IQ of the average immigrant of today is 95, lower than the national average, but more importantly the new immigrants are less brave, less hard working, less imaginative, and less self-starting than many of the immigrant groups of the past.

		He was a british scientist known as a dabbler in many different fields, including biology and early forms of psychology.

	Intelligence quotient - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The heritability of IQ measures the extent to which the IQ of children appears to be influenced by the IQ of parents.
		While IQ is sometimes treated as an end unto itself, scholarly work on IQ focuses to a large extent on IQ's validity, that is, the degree to which IQ predicts outcomes such as job performance, social pathologies, or academic achievement.
		When an IQ test is designed, one method for the calibration of these tables is to try it on groups of testees and make sure the tables yield a Gaussian normal distribution when applied to groups that are representative of the entire population.

	Resurrecting Racism: The attack on black people using phony science
		IQ 'research' has been used to allege that fls have inferior 'intelligence,' but those who developed the IQ literature turned the purpose of the original tests upside down, twisted their statistics, made up their math, and invented nonexistent researchers, publishing fake studies under phony names.
		It is certainly odd that Entine should talk so much about IQ in a book that is supposed to be about sports ability, and that he should go so very out of his way to defend IQ research, as he does.
		In fact, the Flynn effect is possible only if IQ tests are measuring ‘stuff learned,’ which is precisely what Binet and Simon designed them to test: the acquisition of a culturally specific set of cognitive tools and knowledge base.

		The greatest spurt in American IQ testing came in 1917, when America entered World War I. Binet's original tests were designed to be administered to children on an individual basis, but the U.S. Army was faced with the dilemma of sorting huge numbers of draftees into various Army positions.

	A Short (and Bloody) History of the High I.Q. Societies
		The vocabulary test requirement was dropped in 1989 since most IQ tests already test verbal ability; moreover, it was deemed unfair to non-English speakers to discriminate on the basis of an English-language vocabulary test.
		"It is the first high IQ society to acknowledge Dr. Robert J. Sternberg's triarchic theory of multiple intelligence in qualifying members." As the society's name implies, "Collegium was founded as a refuge from the crescendo of mudslinging and constant pummeling that often masquerades as 'brilliant discourse' in high I.Q. publications." The journal is called Apotheosis.
		Although this is not a high IQ society, many members of Thinkers International are or have been members of high IQ societies.

	About Those Tests Indicating Students Have Low History IQ's
		I have neither the background in the history of education nor the mathematical ability to add to the critique that those scholars quoted in the Chronicle article offer, but I do think there is something rather obvious that everyone involved in this endeavor has missed.
		For example, I can certainly imagine a student of today (in the same way that I avoided European History for four years) taking all of their courses in social and cultural history and avoiding history classes that center on political and economic topics that seem comparatively dull.
		I do not see social/cultural history and political/economic history as necessarily competing for space in the same course or even in the same lecture.

		I believe that study of the history of the societies is important as a way of educating society members about the manipulation of public opinion by certain members with a craving for power that has wracked and nearly wrecked the societies time and again.
		This group is a hybrid, partly a high-IQ society and partly a fan club surrounding Chris Langan and his strange theory, the CTMU, which he claims resolves all paradoxes and offers answers to all the problems of physics, mathematics, ethics, and religion.
		At one point, early in the society's history, there was a dispute between Ron Hoeflin and a number of other members regarding whether the society would be democratic or run by Dr. Hoeflin.
