I would much prefer direct IQ correlates rather than using education as a proxy for something better measured with IQ tests.

  What is “better measured” with IQ tests?

    Intelligence.

      I see so much work before me. Just google it: https://futurism.com/intelligence-changing-what-you-think-you-know-part-one/ https://futurism.com/intelligence-changing-what-you-think-yo...

  In that case the sentence would have simply read: > Likewise, many of the genes that are associated with IQ today are likely important “because of how today’s IQ tests are set up.” See also The Mismeasure of Man by Stephen Jay Gould.

    Mr. Gould was not an honest customer. Huge gap between scientific and public reception of his work. https://www.nationalaffairs.com/storage/app/uploads/public/58e/1a4/9b1/58e1a49b14ee0088424324.pdf https://www.nationalaffairs.com/storage/app/uploads/public/5...

      It is a beautifully written book but incredibly dishonest.
