Topic: List of People by Known IQ


  
  Talk:List of autistic people - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I do not dispute that these people might be autistic, but I doubt that they are diagnosed and this list is intended to be of people whose autism status is known and not speculated.
However, the list of autistic people is intended for people for whom it is known that they are on the autistic spectrum.
Though, it would be difficult to determine if an entry is referenced when viewing the list if entries referenced in their respective article are not referenced on the list of autistic people page, because that would require visiting the article of each unreferenced entry to see if referencing is in the respective article.

 Emotional intelligence - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
IQ) is very clear, where generally, psychological research demonstrates that IQ is a reliable measure of cognitive capacity, and is stable over time.
While IQ tests are designed to correlate as closely as possible with school grades, emotional intelligence seems to have no similar objective quantity it can be based on.
This bias has long been known to contaminate responses on personality inventories (Holtgraves, 2004; McFarland and Ryan, 2000; Peebles and Moore, 1998; Nichols and Greene, 1997; Zerbe and Paulhus, 1987), and act as a mediator of the relationships between self-report measures (Nichols and Greene, 1997; Ganster et al., 1983).

 Stalking the Wild Taboo - WSJ Statement on The Bell Curve
IQ is strongly related, probably more so than any other single measurable human trait, to many important educational, occupational, economic, and social outcomes.
For example, a high IQ is generally necessary to perform well in highly complex or fluid jobs (the professions, management); it is a considerable advantage in moderately complex jobs (crafts, clerical and police work); but it provides less advantage in settings that require only routine decision making or simple problem solving (unskilled work).
That IQ may be highly heritable does not mean that it is not affected by the environment.

 Rejection massively reduces IQ - 15 March 2002 - New Scientist
Each individual was asked to list which two other people they would like to work with on a task.
In the second, people taking a personality test were given false feedback, telling them they would end up alone in life or surrounded by friends and family.
But the IQ scores also immediately dropped by about 25 per cent, and their analytical reasoning scores dropped by 30 per cent.

 The New Yorker: Fact   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
People deemed "talented" were constantly being pushed into new jobs and given new challenges.
Carol Dweck, a psychologist at Columbia University, has found that people generally hold one of two fairly firm beliefs about their intelligence: they consider it either a fixed trait or something that is malleable and can be developed over time.
They simply did what people do when they are immersed in an environment that celebrates them solely for their innate "talent." They begin to define themselves by that description, and when times get tough and that self-image is threatened they have difficulty with the consequences.

 LISTSERV General User's Guide
A mailing list is a list of people's names and addresses that is used to send certain messages or announcements to many people at once, who are usually expected to share a common interest in the contents of the message -- just like in the real world.
A peered list is a list that runs in parallel on multiple computers, both to spread the load between several machines and to provide better reliability (you can still access part of the list even if one of the machines is down).
The list owner is usually knowledgable in the field covered by the list, but may not know much about computers, and may not even work in the department or organization where the list is physically located (this is called a "remote" list owner).

Moreover, the peoples of the region, since then, became more daring in demanding their rights and criticizing the policy of their governments.
It makes me feel there's only a fine line of shyness stopping those people from praying for the souls of the terrorists, after all they, in the mentality of the media, are also victims of America (who in turn is the victim of that same terror attack!).
This in my opinion is utterly shallow, such politicians who reiterate this theory are like parrots imitating the totalitarian regimes in the region that use conspiracy theories and feed hatred to their people trying to convince the people that the problem lays within the west and use this to repress aspirations for reform.

Carroll is convinced after his magisterial review of factor-analytic studies of IQ tests that there are distinct cognitive ability factors in addition to the "g" factor that accounts for the greatest degree of score variation on IQ tests.
Hunt's article was part of a section on intelligence and measurement of IQ, and it summarizes the different approaches taken to the study of intelligence by persons in the psychometric tradition and in the cognitive science tradition.

Bush who were all rated based on scholarly achievements, writings that they alone produced without aid of staff, their ability to speak with clarity, and several other psychological factors which were then scored in the Swanson/Crain system of intelligence ranking.
President Lyndon B. Johnson was rated the lowest of all the Democrats with an IQ of 126.
In any case, IQ is a dodgy enough concept even when measured by tests designed for the purpose — trying to guess not just relative rankings but specific IQ scores based solely on writings and speeches is bound to be error-prone.

And the corollary: Every statistical analysis of school- and district-level data should include individual IQ as one of the variables measured.
Because so many people, especially in education, are terrified to admit that individual IQ has anything to do with academic achievement, because it is not evenly distributed demographically.
Richard Dawkins is typical: "Assigning blame and responsibility is an aspect of the useful fiction of intentional agents that we construct in our brains as a means of short-cutting a truer analysis of what is going on in the world." Holding people responsible for their behaviour is, in his view, completely irrational.
