[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP: So if straight IQ is genetic... then when both parents have high IQs, doesn't it make sense that they assume their child will have a high IQ and make educational plans accordingly? [/quote] No. Statistics apply to the population, not to the individual.[/quote] So substitute "high intelligence" instead of "IQ". When both parents are highly intelligent, doesn't it make sense to assume their child will be highly intelligent and make educational plans accordingly?[/quote] No. Same thing.[/quote] Not the PP but no, IQ scoring and intelligence are not the same thing. [/quote] stats apply to the population, not the individual. That doesn't change. And "reversion do the mean" does not mean "take an average" [/quote]
