Surely you should know as a psychologist that Myers-Briggs is basically your average pseudo-science? It really has no more predictive value than enneagrams.

Yeah thats why im doubtful as well. The chances that this unbelievably limited test can show anything are very slim in my opinion.
What I always found odd is that the psychological community generally is very critical towards stuff like Myers-Briggs and 'emotional intelligence', but at the same time all stand firmly behind the notion of 'IQ' and 'IQ tests'.

I mean, IQ tests are as reproducible as cannon rushes and lack any constructive value. There are people who score phaenomenal at IQ tests but have accomplished nothing intellectually, and the reverse. My cents are that IQ tests, and the entire notion of 'IQ', the supposed metre on 'intelligence' are as pseudo-scientific as Myers-Briggs or 'emotional intelligence'.


Uhm, IQ tests predict performance in education job performance very well. There is no other instrument that predicts as well as a good intelligence test (not even a very, very expensive assessment centre matches the IQ test in general). What does emotional intelligence predict?

I like how you mention some individuals with a high IQ that do not perform well... We're talking populations here, norm groups. No offence, but you are pretty clueless on this subject.


Well to be fair you can learn for IQ tests.
I had to do one ( it was not called that but it esentially was) for a college aplication and a friend recommended to me to do a few and it really improves the results, because you see the thoughpatterns required etc. An IQ test just measures what its designed for, which is basicly measuring how quickly and correctly you can understand and apply certain patterns in different categories. There are quite a few people who just train a lot for the test and then score high results based on training not "intelligence" whatever that even is and noone would ever think them to be of high intelligence. Of course if you are really smart you will get through those tests without much preparation but i would never value someones intelligence by that standart
Also, as you might expect, the more IQ test you've made, the better you're becoming at it. Does making IQ tests make you 'smarter'?

Imagine if weighing the mass of some object increased its mass after multiple measurements, not really a reliable method eh? :')

I studied physics, I can predict the path electrons will take in an electric field down to femtometric precision, furthermore, I can quantify the uncertainty of my measurements in hard units and account exactly how much they leak through. You will pardon my snobbish elitism I hope when what I learnt actually has to do with bloody hard numbers and irrefutable stone cold mathematics rather than this creative interpretation of results.


You can debate, but yes there are measures that tell us how well one does in a job or in an educational setting. Not that unthinkable is it? There's entire sub-field of psychology dedicated to it.
Yeah, there are 'measures', which make large assumptions, personal interpretations, subjective analyses, and what the one psychologist considers 'successful' the other disagrees with.

I want hard, cold units. Which do exist in psychology by the way, a simple example of a hard, cold, unit used in psychology is a sentence like this:

'Of all people in the group investigated, the median amount of REM sleep per night in the experimental condition was 5 cycles'

This is a hard unit, there is no disputing it.


No they are not, they are not ridiculously poor. Actually, the correlation between measures of IQ and job and educational performance is quite high (= a good predictor). Additionally, IQ is ideally measured more than once. However, a good intelligence test will report a confidence interval scale... And although there is variation, this variation is not nearly as high as what youve written. The correlation between intelligence tests at the beginning and at the end of youth are really high as well, for example, indicating the strength of the measurement even over the course of the development.
Be more specific, what do you call 'really high'?

Dude, I'm used to apparatus that measure stuff up to femtometric precision, I find a confidence interval of 5 points (which is precise for an IQ test) unacceptable noise. You realize that is one-third of a standard deviation right?


There are barely any good research articles done on EQ, while there are tons for IQ. Throwing these two in one sentence is a sign of being uneducated on this subject. Additionally, of course there are exceptions, but population wise it's a good indicator.
As I noted, population wise, length is also a 'good' indicator.

Be less vague with 'they are not ridiculously poor', I want some hard numbers, what are the confidence intervals, what are the average standard deviations of test. What's the expectancy value for a test to deviate when you take it the next day?

And yes, there is more research done on IQ I give you that, and it all should show for any scientific mind that IQ is bollocks. They are completely unreliable, it's quite the norm that it can differ 5 points if you take it the next day, 10 is not exceptional, and 15 is quite possible, this is completely unreliable and unacceptable to me as a tool.

And then comes the validity, I mean, what the fuck is 'intelligence', to begin with? The pompous ridicule of it, psychology freely, and correctly, admits that the term 'intelligence' is vague, and il-defined, how can you even begin to test the validity of a test then?

It even remains to be proven that this elusive concept of 'intelligence' even exists. I for one am very, very, sceptical towards its existence.

And the list goes on. Really, get off your high exact science horse. There's a reason why we call these social sciences. And yes, they work differently from what you are used to. But if you really want to say something on this topic, I suggest reading some.
Social sciences are a joke compared to actual sciences. My elitism is fully justified considering the rigour I was trained at and the precision my instruments were required to have compared to this ridiculous anything-goes reasoning of social """research""", please, I read enough, and I think you need to read more about actual sciences and its methodology and realize just how much different it is and how much higher the standards are.

I mean, psychological research is subject to different interpretations, the interpretation of the data collected can be criticized as much as the conclusions drawn from it, that is completely unacceptable in an actual rigorous science. Anyone must come to the same conclusion from the same data or the methodology used is severely flawed.

You can debate the construct, but you can not really debate how useful it is when large populations need to be assessed on how well they will do for a certain job, or a certain education. And this is what it was designed for, and it does the best job possible.
'useful'?

Yeah, it does the best job at the current point, and that's the worst of sins and flaws that are continued to be made 'Ohh, it's clearly lacking in precision, has huge uncertainties, but there's nothing better so we'll just take it.', grow some standard man.

If there's nothing better than bad, what is bad is still bad, there's just nothing good around.

And the reason that nothing good is around could very well be that this 'intelligence' as a metre does not even exist.

Anyways, im quitting derailing this thread now. Nice initiative and I in no way mean to criticise this. I just hate the ignorance on this topic.
Bold of you to speak of ignorance.

We have hardly even quantified our statements and it should be clear that my demands on precision are higher than yours and what you call 'precise' I call unacceptable unreliability. I'm pretty sure we can both agree that it's far from exceptional that an IQ test taken again the next day shows a 5 point deviation. If you want to call that an acceptable reliability, or a confidence factor of 5 acceptable than that's your own prerogative, it's just absurd to call an uncertainty of 1/3 of a standard deviation acceptable.

And that still ignores the philosophical issue of the existence of 'intelligence' or a metre thereon.

I find it odd, as i was reading what ENTP means (The visionary type) i would assume that most people would pick.

a) Random (the most options, i used to do that)
b) Protoss (race with a lot of options and spells, like Nal_Ra. the dreamer)

Zerg is a very mechanical race (or it was in SC:BW, in SC2 there is no mechanical races as it's easy to macro) so it just doesn't add up. dunno.

Hope i will not be the only Protoss.
