I thought 60 was the threshold for being able to take care of yourself. Seems odd to have an entire country average that low. Especially considering most Aussies I've met were competent enough. Must be all the bushmen you don't see that drag down the average.

Dump someone raised in Manhattan in the middle of Australia and see how their IQ advantage works out.

Dump that same Manhattan in the middle of the Amazon and he will make it out ... as a shrunken head.

I think the map relates to where the population originates from... So most "Aussies" are not from Australia originally, but European or Asian for the most part.

You're saying the modern day Australian Aboriginal is Homo-Erectus? RACIST!!!1!!


I'm trying to point out the Australian Aboriginals are another species entirely. Everyone overlooks this. Africans have more in common with Whites than Aboriginal Australians have in common with either.

[aeondaze]

I don't know where to start with this, suffice to say I too am shocked at Austrlia'a figures.

The other myth that needs to be dispelled is that most Austrlaians have convict ancestors. Those that came here in the early to mid 19th century as 'convicts' are far far fewer in number than those that arived at a later date as free citizens.

Most Australains don't have any relatives that were convicts and of those that do its an isolate in the family tree.

Also as far as outcast genes are concerned, one can hardly be called a degenerate for having stolen a loaf of bread just so they could feed their children. Most Convicts were convicted over extremly petty crimes, there weren't even many hardcore murderes or criminals, most were usually excecuted in the home land. If anything the convicts were an inteligent and hardy bunch. A lot that escaped managed to eek out an existance on the fringes of the colony within the Aboriginal community. They were a resourcefull bunch. One group manged to escape the penal colony and made their way back to the British Isles by building their own boat, not once but TWICE.

I don't get the IQ map, I suspect it is extremely flawed.

Intelligence and knowledge are two different things. Anybody put in a strange environment at first will have trouble surviving. The question is how well do they adapt after the initial shock. Whites in Australia seem to have done pretty well. How have the blacks done in America?

It would be nice to see the breakdown of race and gender as well. I believe China and Japan are some of the least-diverse countries racially. I think some of these low numbers probably have a cultural influence in addition to the genetic influence, probably once you get into average levels below 85 the cultural issues exasperate the already lower IQs, so they get measured even lower than they otherwise would be.

[Large Sarge]

when they did the study on Chernobyl, they found all the animals in the region (radiation), had much much smaller brains, and they said the animals intelligence level had been effected..

so we can expect to see the Japanese dropping down the old IQ ladder in a hurry

[Horn]

They were a resourcefull bunch. One group manged to escape the penal colony

Resourceful, in my estimation is directly opposed to the IQ test

Bulgaria: 94, 91

This looks like a better estimate for Eastern Europe and Russia.

How have the blacks done in America?

They seem to dominate. They have many more children than caucasians. They have convinced society that welfare is a natural state. I see them all the time working on highway jobs. Well, the word work is subjective. Usually ten are having a coffee break and the only one working is holding the STOP sign.

I wouldn't care to say more. That might be called stereotyping.

I tend to look at a persons awareness level over any IQ level.................plenty of people with high IQs who are basically stupid..........

Nice way to make 5 lbs look extreme.

[Hatha Sunahara]

You have to keep in mind with IQ numbers, these are 'averages'. That means that roughly half the people are above that number, and half are lower. IQ, however is a measure of one's facility in solving problems. When solutions to problems are institutionalized--meaning that culture has prescribed solutions to common problems, it makes IQ meaningless. For example, in order to insure safety of people driving on roads, a country develops a system of traffic control conventions that everyone learns. There are signals that tell you to stop, and ones that tell you to go.

Similarly, you can teach an entire population to submit to authority and not question it. "Smart people pay their taxes." "Smart people vote." Intelligence is then subordinated to belief. You solve your problems by 'conformity and obedience.' By that token, the average IQ of the entire planet is about the same level as Australia. Maybe a little lower. The 'lowest comon denominator'.

Maybe, but not in this instance doucebag :)

Fact is hardly any convicts were murderes or rapists, at that time the British justice system had capital punishment for these offenders. FACT. Most were convicted of PETTY crimes, the judiciary actively prosecuted petty crimes with this severe sentence so that they had a labor force to send to the new colony. This is not hearsay but fact.

Just sayin

I was surprised to see the aussie number on the map. Is this the IQ of people or animals.... some say there's not much difference between them here in Oz. I think the list is probably more a reflection. I hope it is.

It could have something to do with beer. Also maybe the test is multiple choice? Everyone knows that C is statistically more correct than any other letter. Aussies are genetically slack (lazy) and the answer to any difficult problem is "She'll be right mate" or Option C.

Or it could just be that Aussies are stupid. That might explain just about every damn thing. Here's me thinking people are somewhere close to me. I'm smart of course because I think I am.

ITs most likely that no one could be bothered to show up for the exam or could not get the envelope opened with the test paper in side? If the answer paper was just small boxes you black out with a pen a lot of people might have thought they were entering the Lottery.

IF thats the case the test should show that most aussies know their own birthdate because that would be one of their lotto numbers.

Other than that I got nothing.......I don't even know mine IQ. I know it caused problems but what it was I have no eye deer.

I'm trying to point out the Australian Aboriginals are another species entirely. Everyone overlooks this. Africans have more in common with Whites than Aboriginal Australians have in common with either.

Aboriginals have blood of the third subspecies of human, known as denisovans.

As far as blacks go, some are 100% cro-magnon.

Whites have a mixture of cro-magnon and neanderthal (a few % neanderthal).

Semitic populations supposedly have very high levels of neanderthal.

Another wiki definition to explain the behavioral results of our current specimen in Aeon.



Transference is a phenomenon characterized by unconscious redirection of feelings from one person to another. One definition of transference is "the inappropriate repetition in the present of a relationship that was important in a person's childhood."Another definition is "the redirection of feelings and desires and especially of those unconsciously retained from childhood toward a new object." Still another definition is "a reproduction of emotions relating to repressed experiences, especially of childhood, and the substitution of another person ... for the original object of the repressed impulses." Transference was first described by Sigmund Freud, who acknowledged its importance for psychoanalysis for better understanding of the patient's feelings.

[Glass]

transference was a concept created by sexual deviants such as Freud who are now able to claim that accusations of molestation by physciatrists of their clients, which is a base and rampant behaviour of these people can be refuted by claiming it is the victims who are to blame because they are "falsely" projecting against the good Dr, their imagined abuses.

Does that MO ring a bell to anyone?

[Ponce]

IQ really doesn't mean anything because is up to the standards of modern time and not of that of stying alive... in a jungle you would be dead in ten minutes as a jungle man would be dead in NY in 10 minutes......is only a matter of where you are and what lessons you have about being there.

[palani]

WHO has convinced society that welfare is natural? Not the blacks. They have just been the beneficiaries of the agenda pushed by another group.

Welfare is a dipole. The two ends of the spectrum are those who fund it and those who accept it. These two extreme viewpoints do not exist without each other. Take either away and welfare crumbles.

The same might be said of war and peace (as a dipole condition that is). The invader comes in offering peace and the defender suggests war might be the better option. Anyone offering peace is an invader and should be either treated as one or ignored. Anyone offering war has been presented with an offer of peace.

In Brazil they call this the TANGO.

[mamboni]

I really can't relate to folk who get all tied in a knot over differences in population IQs. I posted the map because I found it interesting - for about a second or two; but, such factoids are fairly meaningless IMHO. Who really cares about the average IQ of a population, let alone IQ in general. Intelligence is too complex and variegated thing to be quantitated by a test. My old man tested 170+ yet he flunked the police entrance exam, go figure. To be sure the man was a genius - but he'd never get through a university degree program, no way no how. I was a much better student and test taker and my IQ is not nearly that high. I've known incredibly gifted people who flunked out of school. We are all so different and full of oft undiscovered unrealized potential. But the emphasis must be on the individual and his peculiar talents and strengths, not some average of some numerical measure of dubious utility.

And you deadbeat? YOU BECAME AN AUSTRALIAN CITIZEN, so by default you're actually describing yourself when you call Australians thin skinned.

What are you anyway? CONFUSED BY THE LOOKS OF THINGS.

My partner has lost her Kiwi accent, and adopted the easy going ways of Australians, however I would NEVER ask her to relinquish her Kiwi citizenship, She should be rightfully proud of it as she is a decent and secure person. Unlike yourself, plauged by insecurities so much so that you feel the need to become an Austrlaian.

Not only are you an embaressment to Australians, but you're an embarasment to Kiwis as well clearly you're so insecure you need to take comfort in the false trappings of bunch of dudes kicking around a leather bladder filled with air.

Just remeber who FIRST managed to take the cup, NOT THE KIWI's thats for sure ahahaha....yo guys always try to copy what Aussies do...:rolleyes:

I bet you ran outside before posting this trite and removed you silver fern sticker from you're car, does it take up ALL OF THE BACK WINDOW, if so it would be directly proprtional to your insecurity.

[aeondaze]

I really can't relate to folk who get all tied in a knot over differences in population IQs. I posted the map because I found it interesting - for about a second or two; but, such factoids are fairly meaningless IMHO. Who really cares about the average IQ of a population, let alone IQ in general. Intelligence is too complex and variegated thing to be quantitated by a test. My old man tested 170+ yet he flunked the police entrance exam, go figure. To be sure the man was a genius - but he'd never get through a university degree program, no way no how. I was a much better student and test taker and my IQ is not nearly that high. I've known incredibly gifted people who flunked out of school. We are all so different and full of oft undiscovered unrealized potential. But the emphasis must be on the individual and his peculiar talents and strengths, not some average of some numerical measure of dubious utility.

A packed crowd on Auckland's waterfront was left waiting again, but is no less excited to see Team New Zealand win the America's Cup.
Nearly 1000 people had turned out to see the second and potentially final race before it was cancelled due to high winds, including some who are very close to the team.
Debbie Ockleston and her kids Blake, 8, and Ashley, 11 were their to support husband and dad Peter Ockleston a boat builder with Team New Zealand, in San Francisco on his third cup campaign.
"He was up for hours last night," Mrs Ockleston said.
The family was sure the team would bring the cup home despite the delay.
"We've got the best sailors, the best shore crew, designers," Mrs Ockleston said.
"And we are amazing!" said Ashely.
The roud children and mother were excited to hopefully have their dad back home soon.
"We love you daddy," Ashely said.
Auckland Mayor Len Brown was frustrated the second race was cancelled after such a good start from Dean Barker and the crew.
"Awesome performance, we love what you are doing there, so proud of how you are going out there. They shouldn't have cancelled that last race. It was going to be 9-1," Brown said.
The mayor was jubilant but refused to start counting his chickens before they had hatched.
"Grant (Dalton) and I are in fairly daily contact and he is totally zoned in with that team and they are taking every race as it comes. That is the way we do things here in New Zealand, chill out, hang tough, and get it over the line. Then we will be celebrating," Brown said, before breaking into a cover of "Let's Hear it for the Boys".
Some fans who had been really close to the action recently themselves were just as excited to come back tomorrow and hopefully see the team win from Auckland.
"We are so geared up for the big win. Nevermind it just makes it more exciting tomorrow," said Judy Langley, who had just returned from watching the racing in San Francisco.
She was impressed by the huge turnout at the Waterfront.
"Everybody is really coming on board, it is great that it is close because it makes it more exciting."
Other fans had dusted off their 1995 Team New Zealand kit, hoping to see New Zealand take the cup for the second time.
"I've treasured it. I had to get it dry clean for the first time," said Leo Neal.
He was confident the Team would win and excited to see the city host the America's Cup again.
"Best place in the world to have it is Auckland," Neal said.

Vic judge rejects crim's low-IQ claim


A judge has dismissed as "utterly implausible" claims that a man who managed a network of 21 marijuana crop houses in Victoria had an IQ of 40, jailing him for at least six years.


Justice Mark Weinberg said Van Hung Nguyen, who has lived illegally in Australia since September 2002, played a "managerial role" in the Melbourne enterprise, which grew a Victorian record amount of marijuana.


Police seized 4590 cannabis plants, with a weight of about 1300 kilograms, from the crop houses in Melbourne's outer northwest.

Each house was fitted with "sophisticated" water and lighting systems to grow the plants, and bypassed electricity meters to avoid police detection.

Justice Weinberg said Nguyen, 42, had been spotted visiting the crop houses in 2011 and early 2012 and had even changed number plates on his car to conceal his trips.

Sentencing Nguyen in the Victorian Supreme Court on Monday, Justice Weinberg dismissed a psychologist's report which measured his IQ at 40.

"Someone with an IQ of below 40 would not be able to drive a motor car, let alone perform many of the tasks which you routinely carried out," he said.

Justice Weinberg found Nguyen most likely deliberately underperformed in the IQ test.


He rejected defence lawyer Charlie Nikakis' claim that his client's lack of intelligence reduced his ability to exercise appropriate judgment.
"I think that you knew exactly what you were doing, and knew full well that it was wrong," Justice Weinberg told Nguyen.


Upon his arrest in April 2012, Nguyen told police he had worked as a fruit picker and handyman and struggled to earn enough to eat.
But police found $39,000 cash hidden in his home, a Rolex watch worth $37,960 and two pairs of Tag Heuer sunglasses worth $3,500.
Nguyen pleaded guilty to cultivating a large commercial quantity of cannabis.


Nguyen was sentenced to eight years and nine months in jail and must serve a minimum six years.

Been watching these airplane boats hauling ass all over the bay for months. I'm glad the kiwi's are winning. I've been rooting for them.

Personally, I don't even think you can call these things boats. They are out of the water most of the time.

Do you think the kiwi's will bring back the traditional sailboats for the cup? I sure hope so. Screw Oracle, imo.

Ive been meaning to ask you about that , I really love watching it ///


well these cups are never won until the very end as anything can happen


I think they will keep the catamaran but make it smaller so its cheaper

Also if they win it they may make it so only people from their own country may be in each team.

Ok good for you doc.

I could write a whole thesis on my thoughts of the Aboriginals, I can see why they would score lowest on western style standardised IQ tests, having said that there is something about them beyond this that is hard to put down into words, you kinda have to meet 'em to know what I mean, they are definately not like Africans although they clearly show physiological similarities and an early genetic divergence from African stock at about 45 to 50 ky.

I will ponder this some more and pen my thoughts, I may even start a separate thread...

Just to get htis clear I have predominantly Irish heritage, if that isn't obvious from this thread, haha, just so you know I'm not an indiginous Australian...

[Son-of-Liberty]

Wasn't Forest Gumps IQ just under 80?

60 and you would probably have trouble tying your shoes.

[singular_me]

actually I have been pondering the ingenuity of the charts a lot since I posted... and they all seems to to fit right in the "racial divide and conquer" mantra ...

I am telling you from direct experience, Africa has a lower IQ, call me racist or whatever....

Africa is certainly lower than Australia,

[singular_me]

sure on a continent like Africa, it is obvious... but I am not trying to compare at all. People who live in the jungle or in very deep poverty have other perceptions which we do NOT have (yet)... or have lost

interesting, of course the Catamarans were used in the AC for the very first time the next time next cup was contested after win by the Alan Bond funded, Ben Lexcen designed winged keel single hull yatch Australia II.

Dennis Conner was the guy who introduced the catamarans to the AC. Lots of controversy but I agree, it dilluted the essence of what the America's Cup was all about IMO. I think there is a place for double/triple hulled and skiff racing but I don't think the AC is it.

aeondaze, I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on the original people. I got a lot of respect for them. I hate seeing whats been done, being done to them.

It has been an interesting time here in the SF Bay with the cup and all. Seeing these cats going 40 knots right at you, while you are in a boat doing 6 knots, gives a feeling of awe.

Glass, I'm sure you know more about the AC than I do. I've crewed on racing sailboats before, it just doesn't interest me. My whole philosophy on sailing is just too different.

Perhaps if the AC went back to monohull boats, more traditional, I'd be more interested. Do you ever read latitude 38? It's a good, free publication here, all about sailing, there's a lot of good letters written and published....

The part about Eastern Europe and Russia is what makes it racially bias.

As whatshername posted before, Bulgaria is in the lower 90s not in the 100s as the rest of Europe, and also over and above any mixed nations.

This still doesn't negate the original inbreeding and Aboriginal in Australia though.

[aeondaze]

This still doesn't negate the original inbreeding and Aboriginal in Australia though.

How about you try some facts instead of you're predisposition for spurious trash.


Of our 23,000 protein-coding gene base pairs, we get 11,500 from each of our parents, 5,750 from our grandparents, 2,875 from our great-grandparents, and so on. That repeated division means that by the fifteenth generation - which is only a few centuries ago - your average ancestor (assuming zero inbreeding) is contributing, on average, less than a single gene to your current genome. Go back a thousand years to the 30th generation, and the average genetic contribution is effectively zero.

While it isn't really accurate to say that we're all inbred, at least not in a genetic sense, it might actually be fair to say that we're all the descendants of inbred people. Numerous theories have been put forward about a huge decrease in the human population tens of thousands of years ago - one particularly extreme version suggests the human population in sub-Saharan Africa remained under 2,000 for as much as 100,000 years, while more moderate hypotheses suggest a population bottleneck of about 15,000 that occurred about 70,000 years ago. Either population bottleneck would most likely necessitate fairly extensive inbreeding, and that's backed up today by the relatively low level of genetic variation within humans.

You're just as inbred (maybe more so, you seem to want to throw the accusation ot there) as any one else...:p

Former Amazon CFO Joy Covey dropped out of high school, used her 173 IQ to get to Harvard Business School, helped Jeff Bezos take Amazon public--and then proved that you can lead a full and very rich life beyond business.

FORTUNE -- Joy Covey, who was Amazon.com's CFO in its startup days and guided the company through its IPO, died Wednesday in a bicycle accident in California. Covey, 50, was reportedly struck while cycling on Skyline Boulevard in the mountains of San Mateo County. She leaves an eight-year-old son, Tyler.
