What score is low enough for you to kill yourself? 110? 100? 90?

At around 85 one could probably live a fairly happy life in the current society.

Imagine a world where you laugh your ass off at episodes of Everybody Loves Raymond and Friends.

Imagine chortling at SNL skits.

Imagine being able to boil your entire political philosophy down to Pubs good, Dems bad or vice versa.

Imagine macaroni and cheese feeling like a godsend on thanksgiving.

Imagine how alive you would feel battling for an Iphone that you waited 12 hours in line for on Black Friday.

I'm convinced that the secret to a happy life in our society is a low IQ

In fact, I'm going to go hit myself in the head with a hammer.

PhD School Psych Intern reporting in -- I live in a state where IQ scores tend to be generally higher. Depending on your race your IQ score should be higher or lower. For Jewish Americans (They invented most of the measures) standard IQ based on the most prevalent measures (WISC V/WAIS IV/WJ IV Cog/Stanford Binet) average about 113. For Asian Americans 106. For Whites 103. For Latino 89. For Blacks 85. So depending on your race, what a good IQ is, should vary. Differences of scores within groups are more important than those between. So if you are white, decent cognitive ability is 115+. Most Whites I test where I am from are within that range. I think people on 4chan especially overestimate what a good IQ is. 140 is more than 2 standard deviations above the mean and puts you like at the .01 percentile for the entire U.S. You might have elements of Superior IQ on certain indexes i.e. perceptual reasoning, fluid reasoning, processing speed, or verbal. But overall, you might have some areas that are less and some that are more. My verbal is very high but my processing speed is average, for example.

Yes, I've studied psychology and as a psychology student you are required to also participate in tests, so I took some. Apparently there's a great gap between my numerical and verbal IQ which both seem to be between 140 and 150 and my spatial IQ, which was around 100.

You have to compete with people of all races, not just your own handicapped race. Why be happy because you're above average for your race, when overall you're still below average? Jews don't score higher because they invented the measures, they score higher because of their conniving Jewish intelligence. Blacks don't score lower because dem tests be racis. They score lower because they're chimps.

How does the overall score relate to things like special abilities. I am autistic. I can fix almost anything that breaks. Most of the time, I see the solution in my head in microseconds. However my social skills and life skills are garbage and I suck with money. I am most definitely above average intelligence, but I would trade it in a second to have social skills and business sense.

The boundary for IQ is around 115-120, which is roughly the IQ of the average college graduate. Above that, you can do most any job.

4chan is full of spergs with no social skills who think they can do the work of 3 or 4 men because they have an IQ of 130 or 140. In reality, tons of other skills are necessary. Being good at picture puzzles won't help you get laid or get a job.

There's a difference between cognitive abilities and adaptive abilities. I would wager that if you took a WAIS you'd do well on perceptual reasoning, processing speed, and working memory but might score lower on Verbal due to your diagnosis. But adaptive/behavioral assessment is a completely different measure. Your autism really wouldn't affect most domains of your cognitive ability. But certainly it would affect your adaptive behaviors. If you are ever interested, take a Vineland or ABAS adaptive measure. Autism=/=Cognitive Impairment. There's some comorbidity of it with those higher on the spectrum. But you are right, it's an adaptive/social disorder.

Aspie falls under the high end of the autistic spectrum. As far as the specialists are concerned, it's autism all the way down.

It's a rather complex thought actually. I believe the higher your IQ is, the more likely you are to commit suicide. Why? Because you have to deal with the inferior troglodytes delighting in all of the surplus fluff while you struggle to make ends meet.

IQ isn't meant to be measured for bragging rights, really. It's measured to identify cognitive impairments and individual strengths and weaknesses. They correlate fairly well to achievement tests (I'm not going to go get a book out but I think the correlation is like .81). But no. Cognitive Assessment is not a precisely measured science. There is error in all measurement, even of the hard sciences. Within the cognitive assessments there are error bands (i.e. scores where the person's 'True Score' will range between if the test was administered more than once). For example, a good psych report will say something to the effect of 'There is a 95 out of 100 percent chance that *Person A's* true score falls within the range of 100 to 115 (If their listed score was 108). So basically what that is saying is that if the person were to test the test 100 times. 95 times out of 100 their score would be within the range of 100 to 115.

As for reliable IQ tests? Well most have pretty large normative samples for getting good psychometrics. I would say Wechsler tests are both the standard and the best ones.

Well to be more precse I only included "long regressive saccades" in my analysis. Saccades are quick eye movements during which you can't perceive visual information. Saccades are by far the most important type of eye movements for reading. Turns out the ability to make accurate regressive saccades is positively correlated with reading comprehension and reading speed. Als shorter fixation times between the saccades is correlated with better reading comprehension and speed as well. To my surprise there was absolutely no effect of working memory whatsover.

Btw you would mildly retarded so your cognitive capacities would be terrible to the point where you cannot read at a sixth grade level, you have terrible speaking skills, the most complex story your brain can make is only three sentences long, you cant THINK AHEAD making you impulsive, you also dont understand right from wrong which also makes you not understand personal accountability. Though the worst is the fact the only way you see humans is through skin color, so even jews would be white people to you because you are too retarded to comprehend that skull shapes make a difference.

I have an IQ of 150 and I feel incredibly stupid at times. IQ doesn't mean shit.
>>
>>56822400
Examiners take that into account. Within a psych report there have been a few times that i've said 'This test is not an accurate reflection of 'Persons' cognitive abilities based on reaction to the administration.' I would continue to try and possibly do a behavioral assessment instead to see what's going on. But as for people with ADHD and concentration issues, you are allowed to take breaks between subtests if you want. For one person, I literally had to go back to them over the course of 6 days and administer the test 1 subtest per day because they couldn't handle more than that. But I would also refer you to my statement about the error bands listed above. IQ tests are grueling. There's no doubt about that. They aren't fun. Maybe the Stanford-Binet is for kids. But the WAIS for adults will just give you a fucking headache.
