I think that's a bit overly pedantic, but spelled out:
...in the same proportion as a person randomly selected from the general population with the same IQ.
My point is that the overall correlation is obviously not going to hold, among people who derive self-worth from IQ in particular.
But those are the people who want to talk about the correlation. It's self-defeating.
- exporectomy 5y agoIt's important because you might be asking for comparison to an average IQ person. But given this additional information obviously not, since we know they don't do any of those activities. But so? There's still a correlation. You say "disproportionate" but how do you determine that? What's the proportionate correlation that "normal" high IQ people will assign? Read the research and quote the numbers? OK but won't the Mensa member be doing the same? If it's just a hand-wavy idea like I gave, how can you compare?
