How g-loaded is AP math?

The Project Talent dataset contains a math subtest with questions on topics only taught in grades 10 through 12.
Thus, we can roughly gauge the extent to which higher g enables mathematical proficiency beyond 'age appropriate' material.

We observe:

Values are heritable.🧵
The belief that ethics and values differ (both within and between populations) because of parenting, 'culture', or school indoctrination is widespread.
That genetics account for much of this variation, less so.

1. Moral beliefs aren't equally heritable:

@jensenjeans Was the selection differential measured by comparing means or calculated with a Bronski type estimator?

[Jacob Johnson @EmpiresIntern]

@phil_lyman No

Created a new version of the federal land sale map which now EXCLUDES protected areas, like national parks, wilderness areas, etc, as specified in the bill.

This is the land that meets all of the criteria to sell IF the state allows it.

@cerflerg Meanwhile ubersoy is rage baiting against the op lol

Spend enough time in Utah, and you start to believe libertarianism can work. People forget that it’s the values system (and yes Mormonism) that must underlay a political philosophy of trust.

@MichaelJamesFr8 @cerflerg Who said that?

@cerflerg Ben Alfred reinstates Apartheid when?

@EvropaMaxima Math is more g loaded than physics knowledge, I expect the variance to be higher in math although the mean is lower

Ivy’s are currently ~130 IQ. The mean PhD is 120, physics 130 - meaning a average difference of 10 points. Adding that to the sum the average Ivy league physicist is about 140 IQ. Polygenetic sources estimate about a rate of loss in mean IQ 1 point every 3 decades. Thus 20th century physics circa 1945 is a 143 IQ endeavor.

@cerflerg How related is processing speed to working memory tasks?

Mormons are the one of the most intelligent sects and, one of the few cultures with positive selection on intelligence. The table provided is from NLYS97, if we compute the effect of one generation of selection, the point estimate is 108.3.

If we adjust for race, assuming ~20% of Latter Day Saints are Hispanic -white Mormon have a mean IQ of ~110, comparable to ashkenazim and atheists, making them the smartest religious sect of whites.

@BronskiJoseph I don’t regret it. The “socialization” he speaks of is strategic humiliation of the most able.

@cerflerg Many such cases

Stats > physics

Why do people use SEM? All the measures of fit seem ad hoc and semi-justified.

Am I retarded?
