I wanted to thank you for pointing to this with more than an upvote. This looks very interesting.
I checked and Steve Sailer commented on the original paper, though not too substantially. Do you know of any other commentary within the HBD blogosphere on this?
“Human biodiversity” in this context is the latest step on the euphemism treadmill for “race realism”. It’s not somewhere I have any intention of spending serious thought. I posted the link because it does suggest a quite direct link between prosperity and IQ, suggesting nutrition and medicine as causes for the Flynn effect. I’ll make it a discussion post so it isn’t buried in this −8 post.
This is interesting, I wonder if there’s anything to it: International variation in IQ – the role of parasites . Could be as big as lead. Raise the sanity waterline: improve health!
