[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why would anyone undertake such a study?[/quote] More evidence that the achievement gap starts in the home, not the school system.[/quote] plus genetics[/quote] Genetics is a big no no to talk about [/quote] Genetics definitely matters for intelligence, no doubt about it. On average, more intelligent parents of a given background, have more intelligent children. But there is absolutely no evidence to support, and plenty of evidence to refute, the idea that race and intelligence are at all correlated. On the other hand, there's a huge amount of evidence that the achievement gap between races is due to social structures. I highly recommend the book The Genetic Lottery: Why DNA Matters for Social Equality. https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/can-genetics-help-eliminate-inequality/2021/11/17/e7767ad6-286c-11ec-9de8-156fed3e81bf_story.html [/quote]
