Comment on brains!
Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoAgree with all of that. What annoys me is when properties of the normal distribution are used as “facts” about human intelligence.
I’m sure there are more people with 200+ IQ than with <0.
Reread my original statement and see if you still disagree

eh, well my answer is going to be most likely unsatisfying because - that just depends on how you count it, there’s quite a few different IQ tests and some of them use slightly different methods of calculating the scores
practically though? a person so disabled they can barely figure out the most basic puzzles that scores below ~20 would probably have significantly lower survival chances basically anywhere, but especially in developing countries where they’re less likely to get help
