I would like to see a citation on this.
- groby_b 15y agoWomen who occasionally paid attention at math would like to point out that assuming an average IQ (100), that means it drops 15% for men, 10% for women. The OP would be better of reading that as men being 50% worse than women, not 3 times. If there's any merit to it at all. As you said, [citation needed].
- keithpeter 15y agoShould we be deriving the percentages from the IQ points that are left? e.g. 100 IQ becomes 90 for women and 85 for men, so men are 100 -85/90*100 less good than women as a result of multitasking?
- groby_b 15y agoThat would measure the overall usefulness of men[^1], not the capacity for multitasking, no? [^1]: Yes, I giggled ;)
