Sarrazen discussion in Germany:

professor Andre Reis , chairman of the German society for human genetics :

> no genetical difference in IQ
> there is no Turkish or Jewish gene
> all ethnic groups have same intelligence

-------------------------------
> is there an IQ for the German or Turkish people ?
> Reis : that is a made up nonsense
-------------------------------

apparantly this is a political issue
controverse also at wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_and_intelligence
and I remember the Watson story some years ago

Yes, there is. Im sure mental diseases that affect IQ are caused by a genentical factor.


judaism is a religion, Sammy Davis jr was afroamerican and juwish by conversion. Turks, well im not sure what is a turk, some of the are Anatolian, some of them are Kurd, some of them are Greeks.



Potentially, maybe. In practice, no

you can take the average of a nation or ethnicity

it could be difficult to exclude confounders like education,
but should be possible


OK, I found this with googling for "iq by country"

http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/...q-country.html

Germany 102
Turkey 90

Sarrazin first read some remarks by Jared Taylor-that's where the IQ controversy came up, the second comment (about the Jewish gene) looks like it's a misunderstanding of the recent research about Jewish origins which Dienekes posted on his blog (I'm thinking that he is a reader of Dienekes when he isn't busy screwing up economies) so all in all, Sarrazin doesn't properly understand race or genetics, just like most others.

I found also this:

Country/Region IQ

East Asia ~105
N,W,central Europe ~100
USA 98
Israel 95
East Europe ~92
Turkey 90
Mexico ~88
Brazil 87
NE Asia 87
Cuba 85
Afghanistan 83
Iran 84 84
Saudi Arabia 83
India 81
Egypt 83
Kenya 72
South Africa 72
Ethiopia 63
Equatorial Guinea 59


----------------------------------------

we have the haplogroups from 1000genomes or hapgen, and
presumably we could easily test their average IQ.

Now make the estimate out of Africa genome (where is it ?)
, measure the genetical distance and the correlation coefficient
with IQ (has it been done ?)

Equatorial Guinea 59

that CANT be right, youre saying the average IQ for the area is retarded. lol

I wouldn't doubt it.

How they measured IQ of North Korea?

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...by_Country.png this map shows a direct connection between level of education of the country and IQ. But it can also be closed circle - they can not provide a decent education, because they have weak IQ ... or IQ are weak because they bad in education.

now, which company determines "intelligence markers" ?

maybe a Japanese or Chinese company since it's politically
problematic in USA,Germany
