Hmm, everyone in this article seems to be tiptoeing around one rather important piece of information-- did they control for race or ethnicity? If not, then this is just a recapitulation of
The Bell Curve.
Please note that I am not making judgments about the reasons for the well-known racial discrepancies on this kind of test, but only suggesting that it is quite plausible that this study is just a duplication of the same results.

Hilarious - there was a study done back in the sixties about how kids would perform better if they were told they were part of the “superior” group.
This held true, even with the same sample set of kids, when the “teacher” came back and switched which group was “superior”.

Is this a real study, or one of those touchy-feely experiments to show what prejudiced s.o.b.’s we all are?

I knew a guy who had two different eye colors!..............
As long as one of them is blue, I guess he's in good shape

“What about green eyes?
We’re smart enough to avoid participation in bogus studies.”
Shhhh... Don’t tell those lesser beings with blue and brown eyes. We don’t want them to know.
Has anybody else read, “The Marching Morons?”

Funny... and we get an plethora of studies showing the superior intellect of East Asians and Jews... who both happen to be mostly dark eyed.
To: 14themunny
Yeah baby - the blue eyed devils rule!

In my study, people with black eyes were not smart (or agile) enough to avoid the punch.
