IQ as a measurement of general intelligence has been repeatedly called into question and deligitimized with strong evidence by the fields of psychology and sociology for 30+ years for myriad reasons. In fact, most of the continuing proponents for IQ testing take the stance of "We don't have anything better, so we will use it even if it's deeply flawed." This viewpoint is so prevalent that a majority of studies on the subject in the last 10-15 years are skewed towards evaluating alternative testing methods. Here's a small sample of studies showing the different reasons IQ tests fail to measure intelligence: 1.
