Perhaps the word "psychometry" would have been better. There isn't any psychometric test more stable than IQ.

- feanaro 6y agoThat's a bit better, but confusing the statements "IQ is the most temporally stable psychometric construct" and "IQ is the only valid psychometric construct" is still egregious.
- rcxdude 6y agoI don't read it that way, I think it's meant as 'if you reject IQ, you have raised your standards of evidence so high you must logically reject everything else in psychology/psychometry as well'. It's meant to highlight a contradiction.
- feanaro 6y agoYes, if interpreted like that, I agree with it. What threw me off was "There's nothing left" part. I see now that I might've misinterpreted the meaning.
- cannabis_sam 6y agoHow do you define/consider “stable” this specific context?
