So far all of these studies are ‘association’ studies, which have been notoriously flawed. At this point this is only speculative sensationalism.

What I have noticed is that people with really high IQ’s tend to be the last person to have any common sense when it comes to politics or moral decisions. They may be smart enough to calculate how to land a rocket on Mars and yet vote for Obama and follow anifia.

Re-read the Dunning-Kruger Effect. The truly intelligent would worry about passing, the truly stupid would not.

I work with people who think they are the smartest but the customer who calls us only cares who has the correct answer to their problem and it isn’t the proclaimed smart guys who have it.

A lot of people who are truly brilliant can be not so smart in average ways. Albert Einstein, for instance, was said to have a hard time with simple adding.
The brain is such that sometimes when one part isn’t so good it compensates and another part becomes more brilliant. I wonder how this is reflected in “IQ” tests? Are the amazingly brilliant being passed over because their brilliance is in a limited area?

Plomin outlined the DNA IQ test scenario in January in a paper titled The New Genetics of Intelligence, making a case that parents will use direct-to-consumer tests to predict kids mental abilities and make schooling choices, a concept he calls precision education...As of now, the predictions are not highly accurate. The DNA variations that have been linked to test scores explain less than 10 percent of the intelligence differences between the people of European ancestry whove been studied...kind of ironic since a big push for the development of IQ testing originally came to allow prediction of which kids would do best in school - if they end up getting reliable DNA predictors of how well kids will do, they can forget about how well they can get IQ correlations and go directly to their predictions without the middle man.....

Thanks mairdie.
A year ago, no gene had ever been tied to performance on an IQ test. Since then, more than 500 have, thanks to gene studies involving more than 200,000 test takers.
