re: They redid Somali IQ test, originally showing an average of 68, because people complained

You’re right down there with an average Somali
Thus the reason to jump to their defense, insult the enemy, then lump them in with "black" people in the US.
Absolutely amazing yet totally predictable.
They will do anything for more votes and dare you to notice how shameless they really are.

I volunteer you as the test passenger for the first Somali built autonomous aircraft.

Can you imagine your future hinging on people with a sub retarded IQ deciding your fate?
Yeah. I can. We've got some in Congress.
And yes, they're retarded.

With a standard error of only 0.33. So the distribution is VERY tight.

Three pages of smug ridicule from people who don’t even know their own IQ scores because they saw a tweet that said black people are dumb.
I've had wars here on my belief that IQ isn't genetic across national/ethnic groups.
What I don't deny is that achieved IQ is a significant indicator of success.
We can't ignore that adults in Somalia do not achieve high IQ scores.
I did post a link to the paper.
Should we allow adults to immigrate to America who have critically failed to develop their brains?
How many, who should pay for their inability to fund the social benefits we have?
Should we IQ test all immigrants to see what they have achieved?
Should we check that they will at least be able to hold down a standard job?
These are things as a nation we should ask.
The font of free money that is the federal government is not endless.

I'm not shocked. IQ test are some of the least biased assessments given. The whole bell curve controversy was essentially people being upset at what they thought the bell curved was saying without actually understanding basic statistics, which IQ test use to eliminate outliers.

Are we reaching a point yet where we are starting to see that a Somalian person in a position of power probably orchestrated help for these potted plant people steal billions from the US taxpayer? Looking into this powerful Somalian's activities was probably quashed by the highest authority in her state.
When asked about it, he immediately deflected, saying, "People are going by my house screaming retard. I am a victim here. Give Timmah the love".

Muslim Countries are dumb, because of cousin marriage

an average IQ of 68
Is this the mean or median. Any link to the original study?

I'll post the conclusion
quote:
The national IQ estimates were shown to have non-negligible inaccuracy -/- a standard error of roughly 5.41
IQ points. We have estimated that the composite measurement (SE of 2.6) has 50% less error than the average
dataset that measures proxies for national intelligence. Most of the estimates made of individual countries are
accurate, though a few have very high standard errors (Gabon, Cambodia, Cuba, Saint Lucia, and Haiti) or are
based on dubious estimation methods (Turkmenistan was estimated using mathematical olympiad performance,
North Korea was estimated using North Korean refugees and it was difficult to judge how to correct for Flynn
Effects). We also found that more intelligent and developed countries tended to have more precisely estimated
national IQs, even after controlling for the fact that intelligent and developed countries are more likely to be
represented in these datasets.
The research on whether scholastic test scores between nations pass measurement invariance suggests that
measurement invariance between countries is usually tenable, with nonverbal tests (e.g. mathematics) showing
more invariance (i.e. being better comparable) than verbal (e.g. reading) ones. As these nonverbal and verbal
tests have differences of roughly the same magnitude across countries, the violations of measurement invariance
are not likely to be a practically significant source of bias when assessing differences in IQ between countries.
Some studies have suggested that matrix reasoning does not test intelligence equally between Europeans and
Sub-Saharan Africans -/- the research is not definitive enough to make inferences, unfortunately.
Some groups that are similar in ancestry still differ greatly in IQ: South Koreans score 16 points higher than
North Korean refugees on cognitive tests, and African Americans score 11–14 points higher than Africans. This
sets a rough upper limit on how much Flynn Effects can bias estimates of intelligence between nations. The
magnitude of the observed differences between nations is much larger than this, with scores ranging from 108.7
in Singapore to 62.26 in Sao Tome. Because of that, it would be rational to conclude that the disparities in test
scores between countries are largely due to true differences in ability instead of test bias.
