You appear to be mistaken about that:

Combining our estimates with results in prior literature, we show that a simple model with assortative mating fits our data well, implying that differences in children's environments between racial groups can fully explain gaps in intelligence.

Without looking at your study and only the title of that link, whats the chance that your study isn't looking at adult iq? lol

That's generally what IQ is. Historically it was defined as mental age over chronological age.

You're comparing two different groups with two different IQ/age curves. You don't even know the basics of this research and its really a waste of time when I can debunk your claims without even looking at your studies, just from the titles

You're comparing two different groups with two different IQ/age curves.

Google has these 125 papers citing that source. Can you point me to one of the ones that clarifies your objections?

Or is this something that you've worked out, but all the people who know about this have missed?

Oh the irony.

I'm not going to do your work for you. It is pretty common practice for the dishonest to not use adult IQ but rather teenage or 7-year old IQ because it allows them to paint the picture they want to paint, knowing that using adult iq would give a different result that they don't want.

The irony here is your lack of knowledge and your arrogance. We have all been where you are, you are not unique.

Okay, let me be clear then: You're wrong. The reason that there are no scholarly refutations of that paper in line with your argument is because your argument is not valid.

Did your paper use adult iq?

[–]ActuallyNot 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

It used AFQT and NAEP scores.

Is AFQT adult in your book?

How old are the ones taking the AFQT? 25-30?
