Most autists are below average intelligence. It's only that when they are above average they skyrocket with that.

It somewhat can be. There's a reason why high IQ individuals have an easier time studying let's say mathematics and physics. Having a high IQ does not mean you won't be a total wanker though, social intelligence isn't something that can be measured with it.
>>
IQ tests are fucking retarded and have no merit in the real world. I'm sure I make more as a mechanical engineer than some fucking dweeb who can score high on a test

The problem is that "intelligence" means something different for everyone, and thus can not be measured in a way that the public appreciates.

There certainly are enough retards with academic credentials.
>>
>>70438621
This is really just a semantic point. "Intelligence" may not be the best word to use to describe what IQ measures.

It measures abstract reasoning ability, and in turn, is a good or very good indicator of potential for academic and professional success, as long as other factors like work ethic, emotional maturity, etc. aren't too lacking.

That is, if you score low or average on IQ tests, you can't be a lawyer, doctor, engineer, scientist, etc. You lack the necessary reasoning skills, regardless of how "mature" or hardworking you may be. The fact that some people with high IQs may not achieve much or have inadequacies other than abstract reasoning ability is beside the point.

And practically, do you want to work in a building designed by "engineers" with IQs of 100 or 90, or take advice from a "doctor" with an IQ of 100? No. That would be retarded, although it's technically impossible.

>do you want to work in a building designed by "engineers" with IQs of 100 or 90, or take advice from a "doctor" with an IQ of 100?

Those numbers mean nothing to me. I've met enough people in those professions who were utter idiots, and enough high-school dropouts who were very intelligent. I don't give a shit that some test, designed in cryptic ways, says they can reason better, when I have proof against this everywhere I go.

>>70437736

You just explained why he is popular
>>
>>70439038
>proof they can't reason

Smart people make bad decisions all the time. It doesn't mean they don't have a higher natural reasoning ability than others.

Also, these things you call "stupid" might only be so from your subjective perspective. Most everything is an opinion. If they said 2+2=10, sure, that's actually stupid, but these vague things you talk about that make engineers and doctors you've met "stupid" might not actually be.

It's pretty much a consensus that IQ correlates highly with academic and professional potential. I'm not really sure why there's always a few on some crusade against it. Although it's true that it's imprecise to say it's the equivalent of "intelligence" whatever you take that to mean.
>>
>>70438834
>do you want to work in a building designed by "engineers" with IQs of 100

Sure. Buildings aren't built by one person. Work ethic determines everything. A team of 200 IQ engineers will not design you a better house if they simply do not give a shit. And it hardly matters if your doctor has an IQ of 100 or 150, both of them would need to go through the same diagnosis checklist and both of them would come to the same conclusions having studies the exact same thing.

Because, as you said, it provides a skewed measure of intelligence and provides a false label for people at large. This kind of binary, simplistic thinking that rates people by a simple number is the opposite of intelligence, and is just a bad system for measurement of it.
>>
100, no one here is exactly going to be splitting the atom.

If IQ is a measure of someones intelligence, why is it you can improve your score by practice?
>>
85, maybe?
seems most people here unemployed and uneducated
>>
>>70438136
If you can properlly define it, you probably can
>>
>>70439424

Because even a tard brain can improve with some practice. It will never reach mensa level however.
>>
I have no idea what mine is. Probably whatever is average. 95-105 maybe.
>>
>>70439547

But i thought intelligence is static and the IQ test actually tests intelligence.

but this place is full of 14,15, and 16 year olds

Not really. There's some wiggle room. Not a whole lot however.

it's like any other part of your body, if you exercise it a lot you can get better (studying/reading/problem solving games), but if you dont put it through any effort it'll get worse (doing fuck all anything every day)

Very low

>>70439424
The number is usually inconsistent on a very slight level every time you take it, but you're never going to jump to genius level if you're sitting on an 80 IQ. You can study for the test and experience a short-term bump in your score, but a long-term gain in one's IQ are extremely rare.

IQ tests are one of the most reliable psychological tests available, much more so than personality tests or measurements of attitude, because a person's score is generally the same across time.
>>
>>70439424
You can't improve it *that much.*

e.g., there are studies of identical twins raised in low-income homes and others in high-income homes. Even after 10 and 20 years of allegedly superior education and home life, the twin in the high-income environment will score only 5-10 points higher.

Education and hard work only affect your natural intelligence so much, and it seems often not much.
>>
>>70437238
Well I have an IQ of 150 so that counts for something.
