[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There isn't enough information here to evaluate the quality of the studies, but the abstract tells us that they were performed on "two large-scale, nationally representative United Kingdom data sets". The US and the UK are so different in politics, in matters of social class, and in the effect of social class on IQ (probably not on intelligence) that the results aren't applicable to the US. We have other issues.[/quote] You are so quick to dismiss that you did not read the mention about a US data set. Further, social class is a variable that can be controlled, so I'm not sure how it is relevant that social class is different. You are making the assumption that social class is a mediating variable but they did not highlight this result so it is really unlikely that it is the driver.[/quote]
