I wasn’t planning on doing a third norming of the KAMIKAZE but after a commenter enquired about it, I discovered there was a lot more data to work with.
I now have 20 cases of KAMIKAZE takers reporting Wechsler IQs and the correlation between the two tests is 0.54 which is surprisingly low given how g loaded the WAIS-IV arithmetic subtest is.
It’s likely not the case that the correlation is depressed by range restriction, as the KAMIKAZE takers (mean 131; SD 16.5) were slightly more variable in their Wechsler IQs than the U.S. population (mean 100; SD 15) though this could be because these are self-reported Wechsler scores taken at different years which introduces new sources of variance.
One possibility is that Arithmetic is highly g loaded but math isn’t and the reason for that could be that math is much more dependent on education and practice, while Arithmetic is something few people practice, especially since the advent of calculators.
Another possibility is that the correlation is dragged down by the unreliability of self-reported Wechsler scores, my not correcting KAMIKAZE scores for age, and the fact that Wechsler and KAMIKAZE were not taken at the same time.
Nonetheless, when KAMIKAZE and Wechsler scores are both listed from highest to lowest, we get the following equivalencies:

Just took it and got 12, but I was pretty confident with 14 of my answers. I went back in on a different device and realized I made a stupid error on the easy donut question. Can you send me the questions, PP?
The questions or the answers?
Never mind, I can probably get the questions on a different device. Curious: did not putting 0’s before the decimals count as wrong for the probability questions?
That was an issue early on, but it was fixed. Of course questions 12 and 17 specify the answer needs to be in fraction form.
i wonder goes on in the minds of autists. just pure garbage and filth inside of there probably.
no doubt i am too smart for them!
Rereading the test, I made another boneheaded mistake on a “gimme” question. That’s always been a weird thing with me where I make more mistakes on easier questions than I ought to considering my pass rate on tough ones. It may have to do with executive function or my PSI being 2.5SD lower than my GAI – or with my just not being thorough. Fun test
you said you were Croation or Serb or something. i myself have a small percentage of Balkan ancestry too!
mainly I am North Indian and Afghani/Pakistani (despite my dad being born in South India I only have about 10% of that ancestry with possible descent from the Sentilese/Andaman Islanders) but these DNA tests tell me I have a fair share about 10% from the Middle East probably Lebanon and then another ~10% from Anatolia which would mean I am Greek Albanian or Turk.
various tests have various results but i think its safe to say that i have considerable ancestry from other sources than just the subcontinent.
99% of neurotypicals think the media runs on ratings is because theyre stupid. Media isn’t like a business anymore than say, sports teams are.
I never said ratings were their only priority or even their top priority, but obviously they’re a factor. Just do an analysis of what shows get cancelled and what shows get renewed. The latter average much higher ratings than the former.
Yes you did. You plainly asked me how the media funds itself and you thought the ratings explained it before I explained the economics of the media and you banned the comment.
I think for entertainment shows, the media does care about ratings. I’m just talking about the CNNs and the NYTs.
Well yes, I did say the media is funded by ratings because these determine the rates they charge advertisers and whether or not cable companies will carry a particular network. You then replied:
Its basically funded by elites to pump crap into peoples heads. Most media companies run at a loss. CNN probably runs at a loss as an individual unit. But jews and the CIA will insist the rest of the Warner corporation picks up the tab because the political benefits of mind controlling regular viewers like you is worth a lot.
I don’t know where you get the idea that media isn’t profitable. CNN made over $714 million in 2020 and Fox News made about $1.8 billion in profits.
https://www.pewresearch.org/journalism/chart/sotnm-cable-total-profit-for-cable-tv/
Of course they could make even more money if they covered the topics the people actually need to know about so in many cases, propaganda trumps profits. And obviously if a particular media company is run and staffed largely by Jews it will reflect a Jewish bias just like Al Jazeera had an Arab bias. On top of that media companies are lobbied by various interest groups (some of whom are Jewish) and as you noted, in some cases infiltrated by intelligence agencies. They are also pressured by their advertisers to favour certain industries (big pharma) which gave rise to all those crazy anti-vax conspiracy theories.
It makes me laugh when I see libertarians say the media industry should be deregulated or ‘free market’. All you get in the end is a [redacted by pp, 2022-08-02] cabal taking over the media and pumping nonsense into people. I’m for freedom of speech but not necessarily against tight media control.
Everyone knows the media runs at a financial loss. I don’t know where you got those numbers from. Washington Post was bailed out by Bezos. NYT was bailed out by Carlos Slim. I wouldn’t be surprised if the CIA uses a slush fund to fund certain media operations and activities like the 50s and 60s.
It’s true that media, especially print media, has become much less profitable but that’s not because they don’t care about ratings, it’s because new technologies have oversaturated the market. In the 50s and 60s there were just 3 major networks but now there are 500 channels, youtube, tic tok, & streaming to compete with and newspapers have to compete with all the blogs & social media. So if anything ratings matter more because they’re becoming harder and harder to get. They matter not just for making money, but you can’t propagandize if no one’s watching so popular entertainment shows and sports serve as lead-ins for the news which serves the propaganda.
Of course when forced to choose between money or propaganda, they seem to choose the latter. This was demonstrated when rightwing Roseanne was fired, despite having the #1 show.
all the commenters here except for me are neurotic beyond imagination and forcing their hand at everything.
they struggle with reality because of such pronounced autism they cant seem to get a clue as to what is right and what is wrong. start feeling bad about yourselves you miserable cuckolds.
at least the nazis thought men should be sexy too.
So finally after exchanging comments by this website and email over 3 days you finally get the media cares more about hammering home propaganda than selling advertising. Great. We’re getting someone.
Also unban what I said about most of the ads also not selling the products or services theyre nominally supposed to be selling but also being about social engineering. Like that very famous AllState Insurance ad with the interracial couple.
you finally get the media cares more about hammering home propaganda than selling advertising
I simply said they cared about ratings. That’s not inconsistent with caring about other things more.

the other list is meaningless.
notice super majority black counties and white counties in eastern ky dominate.
the s dakota and new mexico counties are monkeypox reservations.
some of these counties have hardly any pipo…so mugabe is right again…
the single poorest place in the US is eastern ky.
aka the coal field.

Why are you posting as Marsha? Are you gone in the head?
ashley judd is (or was) like the 100% wypipo version of alicia keys.
very sexy.
i think she got into harvard by celebrity affirmative action.
for example MyHeritage DNA stated my results as ~85 percent South Asian ~3 percent West Asian (Iran Georgia Syria Iraq etc. probably where my haplogroup G Y-DNA comes from) ~5 percent Finnish ~3 percent Greek and South Italian and then ~2 percent Ashkenazi Jewish!
I would take these results at face value even though its just an approximation of my ancestry.
most of the blogs commenters are incompetent and callous retards in one way or another.
legitimate social retards but some may also be retarded in other cognitive ways too. lucky for me i have no real cognitive weaknesses and am superior to any commenter on here cognitively despite my setbacks over the years.
this also explains why theology is unique to christianity.
so-called muslim, jewish, hindu theology is just similar to theology in its proper sense which is the attempt to make sense of what doesn’t make sense…
and the only religion that makes no sense is christianity.
and this was understood by tertullian, very early in the religion.
tertullian was born in 155 AD.
i think the only reasonable hypothesis is (if you could travel back in time and spoke aramaic):
1. jesus was a seriously weird dude, but in a good way.
2. something happened after he was executed.
the theory that the resurrection was invented to make money has yuge problems.
What do you make of Lion’s theory that he never existed?
i would like to believe it because Jesus seems like an evil dude masquerading his hideous philosophy as something beautiful.
what a cruel guy he mustve been to make that many threats against everyone and try to intimidate them into believing his misguided and egocentric worldviews!
He existed but he was more of a asaint than actually being a son of God.
well obviously he wasn’t the son of God, but how do you know he existed.
it’s impossible to read the whole NT and not be converted to an extent. it’s just like reading marx. to understand what is being said is to agree with it in part.
there are no anti-marxists who’ve ever read and understood marx.
lion et al have never read the NT, which is at the very least the single greatest work of propaganda ever made.
we dont know for a fact. but it makes more sense to assume he existed than assume he didnt.
yeah. straight women want what fags want but will settle for less.
i know from experience how some men can basically mesmerize women…
looks go a long way for women because almost all men nowadays are fat, weak, nintendo man-chirren.
women have a savage inside them too.
if only richard gere were 6’3″. he kind of looks like senna.
a lot of my family members on my mothers side are 6 ft or above. all of my uncles on that side of my family are very tall with some of them over 6 ft and i have a cousin that is almost 6 ft 3 inches.
i myself am only 5 ft 4 inches but am not unhealthy nor hideous looking despite being overweight. i am trying to lose weight and when i do i will have attained good looks like i had before.
Articles like this one, from the daily Mail about a UK Roma traveller 12 girl in 2015, heavily contribute to ridiculing studies about intelligence and the all concept of IQ. This girl is probably not studying in any university and, now, may have an IQ below 125 …
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3356890/amp/Roma-traveller-girl-aged-13-higher-IQ-Einstein-Stephen-Hawking-s-hardly-school.html
Most people, with prestigious jobs like myself, would be ashamed of even speaking about IQ, all the more belonging to any high IQ society … That’s a pitty.
I agree with this. But more narrowly than what youre saying about all IQ measurement being faulty. I have seen too many examples of so called child ‘geniuses’ not being reliable. IQ testing kids is a waste of time.
the agenda nowadays is to promote the idea that anyone can be high IQ regardless of whatever background they come from.
basically everyone irl will boast an IQ of 140+ unless they sound really dumb because its hard to tell who is who and what is what sometimes especially when you realize the Langan effect (my own way of saying people with low life success claim to be very high IQ) is becoming more prominent.
its sad because intelligence should be measured to get a closer look at how successful this person is not only for themselves but as a member of society and a lot of high scoring individuals dont do anything actually contributory to anyone and not even themselves!
it is disturbing to think about but hey isnt everything else too?
I think the tests these British people use have SDs of 24. Your height is a bigger outlier than her IQ, Bruno.
😉 Teffec P., I feel my unusual height even more here in south west Spain.
Yes I think you are right and it’s probably the same Mensa Uk test with 24 sd.
And then, the redactor mixed it with Einstein IQ évaluation nobody knows where it came from – I don’t remember if there is a Pumpkin estimate – wich is probably 4 sd (I doubt they put Einstein at 2.5 sd)
For Philo, I didn’t say I don’t believe in “g” or that I despise scientists who work in the Intelligence field (au contraire, I am in to review a possible contra Taleb article if anyone tackle the challenge) but that it’s reflection in the press and in the high IQ societies give a very deplorable image of it all.
Of course my estimate is just that, an estimate. It could be wildly wrong.
No.
Pumpkin persons estimate for Einstein’s IQ was not 4sd. It was 135(SD 15). Pumpkin person estimated it on the basis of his scientific prominence and his tiny brain.
Yes ?~}`
I think you are right and Pumpkin estimated it at 2,33 sd only.
That would be a magnificent use of mild giftedness because Einstein was involved in so many scientific enterprises. True, many people smarter than him in math helped him a lot. So it’s not completely inconceivable that such a genious achiever wasn’t in the usual 150ies of Nobel Prizes winners (many of them with tiny accomplishments compared to him).
I agree with the estimate of approximately 155(SD 15) for the physics nobel prize winners of the first half of the 20th century only. That is in accord with ann roes study the making of a scientist. In the 21st century I think that the winners of the nobel prize in physics have an average IQ of approximately 145(SD 15). I have friends with doctorates in chemistry and experimental physics from Harvard and trinity college Cambridge. The trinity college experimental physicist also has two silver medals from the international physics olympiad. I consider them to be on that level.
Yes I agree with that 3 sd estimate. Probably Fields medal are still a bit higher (maybe 3,3).
Every other fields a bit lower but with economy probably at the top and medicine/physiology at the bottom, Chemistry followed by biology lying in between. But there such individual variation and so few laureates that those average guesses are above all for entertainment,
Btw, Thanks for putting me somewhere, below you but, not too far down 😂
I think fields medallists are 3.5 standard deviations above the mean on average in the 21st century which is almost the exact same estimate as yours. I agree with your ranking of the nobel prize winners. 1.Physics 2. Economy 3. Chemistry 4.Biology5.medicine/physiology.
I think the KAMIKAZE is too speeded. I would give people at least three days over which to work on the problems (not to imply that they would spend every moment of those three days working on the problems).
Yeah, I wanted to make a test with a ceiling that exceeded my own mathematical ability, and I knew that I could solve all of these items untimed but that I could never do them in around half an hour. Maybe a time limit of an hour would have been more appropriate (especially given the difficulty of the last question). Another thing is that unsupervised tests with long time limits tend to be quite dependent on motivation (I imagine that this would be especially true for mathematical tests), and ideally a test should be a measure of what a subject can or cannot do more than what they will or will not do.
I would tell you to try Brainbreaker Spatial & Numerical, but the web page seems to be broken now. I can e-mail you a PDF which contains the test, but I can only give you the answers to problems I solved and/or remember the answer to.
Sure, I’ll try it, but I’ll warn you that I often procrastinate at these tests due to both perfectionism and laziness (still haven’t finished cooijmans 3!) so I might take a long time to complete it
I wouldn’t recommend doing it unless your I.Q. is above 140-145. No reason to bother with this test unless you’re too high for standard tests to meaningfully measure
I think my iq is right about 140, so standard tests like sb5 do pretty well for me (except in the verbal and quantitative domains – but my strengths here are somewhat ‘artificial’). I’ll send you an email once I finish Cooijmans 3; if I do well there (150+) then I may as well give this test a shot.
Sounds good
Do you want me to send it to you?
Is this our boy RR?
He can’t be that hot.
You guys should go to the banned Daily Stormer website. Google doesn’t even try to hide its censorship…it completely delists it. You can only get links to jewish descriptions of the website.
Andrew Anglin is a genuinely funny writer but hes pretty extreme even for me.
There are period when the site change dns a lot. I found Google always bring me to it adding to the address those two words « most censored » ironically.
I read the daily stormer on a quotidian basis in 2016 and 2017 before it was banned because of its promotion of the unite the right charlottesville rally. The vast majority of Anglin’s “views” are exaggerated for comedic effect. Some it was genuinely humorous such as the repetition of the phrase “no one could have predicted it” with regard to black crime.
PP, do you believe white people can ever have an N-word pass? If so, under what circumstances?
Peeps what do you think is the best iq test out there?
The one I’m making but I’m biased so of course I think that
out of all the things i can boast i have the ability of saying im the grandest Playing Character of all time.
rest of yall just NPCs and dont even know it especially those bastards running the streets right now. no apologies!
You are one of the least biased people I know
I AM one of the least biased people you know. Thanks for saying that. Another reader once called me the most open minded person he had ever met. A friend’s mother said the same thing.
I’m very interested to here that you are developing your own test. What kind of items are you including? Is it going to be a comprehensive test of ability with multiple subtests? What is the format of administration going to be?
details are still being determined
Very mysterious…
when wypipo say they aren’t slave masters…
they’re slave masters.
when i looked up what modern-day ethnicities im most related to are i found out i was mostly closely related to the Burusho people who are kind of like the Kalash in a lot of ways.
this is interesting because im haplogroup G in regards to Y-DNA lineage which is very rarely found amongst those people although that might have to do with being distanced from the Burusho people for so long.
Done about 33 minutes, 4/12. In line with other online scores (Otis-Gamma, Icar16,C-09,etc) and the real one (the high school´s admisions, many year ago).
For me, seeing the data, the 2nd standarization was the good one.
