iq still a thing?

[–] JasSmith 6 points 2 weeks ago

Why wouldn’t it be? It is the single most research metric in all of sociology. We have more evidence for the existence of the g factor (and its causal and correlative effects) than any other phenomenon in that entire school of science.

Don’t confuse the criticism of measurement tools with the premise that g doesn’t exist.
