The Picture Arrangement test was first used by Decroly (1914) but gained major attention when it was included in the WWI army IQ tests. However the test never really caught on, but in the 1930s, David Wechsler decided to include it in his scales. Of the 7 items Wechsler originally picked, 3 were stolen from the army tests, and 4 were stolen from the “king” cartoon strips that appeared in The New Yorker.
…you get to look at several cards–at least three, sometimes as many as seven–each of which shows a drawing. The drawings look like panels in comic strips. You are asked to arrange the cards from left to right so that the drawings tell some kind of meaningful story; in some cases, more than one sequence is allowed to be meaningful. Picture Arrangement measures, among other things, your ability to anticipate and to engage in “social planning”…Possibly evidencing his weakness in social planning, the tape at this point records a frustrated sixty-four-year-old mumbling to himself in anguish and occasionally expressing delight at a solution. His final score was nothing to boast about.
There’s a stereotype that libertarians can be a bit autistic so it’s kind of funny that the brilliant libertarian Seligman would struggle on the most social of the Wechsler subtests. Libertarianism also caused more direct problems for Seligman on the other social subtest Comprehension, which straight up asked him to explain why a certain libertarian ideas needed prevention. The feisty Seiligman replied by saying the preventive laws were unneeded, forcing the psychologist to restate the question in a way that didn’t require Seligman to agree with the premise.
Shortly after the great Wechsler died, the Picture Arrangement subtest was dropped from the scale, probably because the test is time consuming, difficult to administer, and doesn’t cluster well with any of the major abilities measured by the WAIS.
Nonetheless I decided to include it in the PAIS (Pumpkin Adult Intelligence Scale) and the 12 items selected have proven to be extremely satisfactory.
Although the test is a pretty good measure of g, Wechsler noted that mental retardates sometimes did well, even when they failed other tests. Conversely, I have noticed that high IQ autistics often do poorly, even when they do well on every other test.
Wechsler claimed psychopaths often do well, but I haven’t seen any real data.
The test measures big picture thinking, the ability to get the idea, size up social situations, see the forest not the trees.
It may also measure sense of humor, and in the case of the Wechsler version, New York Jewish sense of humor.
When I tried the test on the regulars at a pool hall I frequent, their scores out of 12 were 9,8,8,5,5,2,1. The mean was 5.4 with an SD of 3.1. This is a good estimate for Canadians a whole since pool hall customers are a pretty random sample of the population but keep in mind that Canadians are about 3 IQ points brighter than Americans. If we assume the mean of 5.4 = IQ 100 + 3, and the SD of 3.1 = 15, we can perhaps crudely convert to IQ equivalencies (U.S. norms.
Not surprisingly, the mean for my largely brilliant readers was much higher: 8.2 (SD = 2.2).
Nine of my readers also supplied data on their SATs/ACTs. This subset was even brighter still, with a mean of 9.6 (SD = 1.88). Their SATS/ACTs equated to IQs with a mean of 126 (SD = 16) (U.S. norms). If we equate the means and SDs, we get a second method to convert to IQ equivalencies.

One the possible reason why anti heresytarians tend to have some good points against heresytarians and end up helping them to balance this debate rather than being massacred by their oponents is that because seems majority of people, including hbd’s, tend to forget that basic genetics & inheritance lesson we had in high school: genetic combination. Like we dont simply inherit genes from our parents separately but in combination and it result in individual differences in how these genetic combinations express (phenotypically), explaining most of physical individual differences between siblings but also or very likely their behavioral individual differences too, which can make some “environmental factors” look just a false correlation.

So why is intelligence involved in “reason”?
Why do people think differently?
Things vs. People?
Things do not move like people. They have a staticity to them people do not. One input one output. But with people, they are variable. Each person is different. And they go up and down. Fast and slow. They feel love and hate. People are different from people.
So how are things different from people? Things serve a function. They are objects. You always know what they will do but with people there is uncertainty. People will not get along but things will just be and bounce off each other in predictable ways.
There is an emphasis and tone in the way people speak. And the inflection of each word. This is not the same with vision but can be processed with sounds. A place setting and atmosphere.
The abbreviation in this is that one must seek within to find answers. There are no continuous actions one can take. A pause is necessary.

differences in cerebral blood flow between men and women may help explain why women tend to “be stronger in empathy and intuition, as well as self-control”
“females’ brains consistently showed more strongly coordinated activity between hemispheres…”
In other words, the female brain may be more “skillful” regarding how the left and right hemispheres of the brain communicate.
– Higher levels of verbal ability.
– Stronger reading comprehension and writing ability.
– More attuned fine-motor skills.
– More adept at retrieving information from long-term memory.
– Faster perceptual (sensual interpretation) speed.
“Using brain imaging data from 46,034 men and women, (researchers) found that women’s brains were significantly more active (with higher blood flow) in many more areas than men’s brains, especially in the prefrontal cortex, which is involved with focus and impulse control, and the emotional areas involved with mood and anxiety.”
rr if men and women are the same things then there should be no reason to differentiate between them.
in other words, you believe men and women are only different because of culture, not biology. There should be no reason for sexual attraction and no reason for psychological differences.
No one’s saying “they’re the same”—I proposed a reason for why they score differently. Imagine telling me—who’s into anatomy and physiology—that I think biology “doesn’t matter.”
“Where is male and female psychology located?” – what is this nonsense?
There is no such thing as “male and female brains”, that was my original claim. Read my article I linked and read this and you won’t ask such nonsense questions.
He’s criticizing genetic determinism, Cat. Obviously, Males and Females have different developmental trajectories and, as such, develop different types of local functionalization in the brain. But the idea of “male and female brains” is historically associated with genetic determinism, which RR is adamantly against.
>Males and Females have different developmental trajectories and, as such, develop different types of local functionalization in the brain.
Yes, this is true but rr has all sorts of dumb terminologies that you must pass through before we can get the core truth of things melo.
male and female brains exist because they develop differently. but rr cannot admit that this is true, that the outcome of development is a different brain between them.
Why do you keep repeating the claim that “male and female brains exist” when it’s not true? Lise Eliot’s 2021 review showed that the human brain isn’t dimorphic, it’s monomorphic and that the only reliable difference between the brains of men and the brains of women is an 11 percent size difference.
“Nonetheless, it is notable that the 11 % brain volume difference between men and women is smaller than the s/g difference in other internal organs, including the heart (17 %), lung (23 %), liver (14 %), pancreas (18 %), kidney (19 %), and thyroid (25 %; de la Grandmaison et al., 2001).”
Yea that explains 1% of the difference. Your photo says “male and female brains” when that’s clear bullshit.
The Philosophersaid:
Hahaha wow, now hes saying theres no difference between male and female minds. Hahaha.
Teffec P.said:
There aren’t “male and female brains” insofar as male brains are blue and female brains pink, but to equivocate in such a way as to gainsay any demonstrable neuromorphological differences between sexes and their implications is pure semantic, pseudo-egalitarian bullshit. You may as well say that intersex difference in height doesn’t exist by saying there’s no such thing as “male height and female height.”
Are you saying that proportionally the ratio is the same with a difference of only 1%. Or is it the case that the corpus callosum in females is larger than males proportionally by 11%?
I’m saying they the differences that are traditionally observed between men and women are due to the 11 percent brain size difference between them—for someone so interested in neuroscience, you don’t see so eager to read a paper which directly refutes the claim that human brains are “dimorphic”, that is, there are “two kinds of brain.”
I think RR’s point is that sex differences in the brain are continuous, not discrete:
The main difference between discrete and continuous variables is that discrete variables represent countable, distinct values, whereas continuous variables represent uncountable, infinite data, usually as measurements. Essentially, discrete variables have countable values like the number of toys in a box, while continuous variables have measurable values within a defined range like the distance you walk in a day.
The table below summarizes the key differences between discrete and continuous variables and provides a few more examples.
I am not as intelligent as you are in the way you expect me to be. Memorizing everything that you do. Yet you do not believe intelligence exists. And You cannot answer simple questions. You dump stuff no one reads.
I don’t know AK, that review is pretty in depth and comprehensive, I think. It’s obvious that the only difference between the brains of men and women are an 11 percent difference, and the differences we see between them are due to that difference.
It’s obvious that the only difference between the brains of men and women are an 11 percent difference, and the differences we see between them are due to that difference.
I thought you said the physical can’t affect the mental
Funny how you ask me to “Answer the question” when you NEVER answer direct questions to you and NEVER provide references for your empirical claims. But I’m not you, so here’s an argument.
If brain size directly caused differences in psychology between men and women, then we would expect individuals with larger brains to consistently exhibit distinct psychological traits compared to those with smaller brains. But studies and observations show that individuals with larger brains do not consistently exhibit distinct psychological traits associated with their gender. So, the 11 percent brain size difference between men and women does not directly cause differences in psychology between the genders.
Where are your references that blacks have higher T than whites and that this higher T translates into higher aggression?

Decades from now, Biden will be remembered as one of the most effective presidents in the modern era. His approval rating would be much higher, and he’d be unbeatable for re-election if the media focused more on his accomplishments rather than how old he is.
Got us out of Afghanistan, Inflation Reduction Act, CHIPS Act, PACT Act, and Student Loan Forgiveness. He took several steps to expand the number of immigration judges, including requesting additional funding from Congress, accelerating the hiring process, and hiring judges from various backgrounds. He has also taken steps to improve the working conditions for immigration judges and address the backlog of immigration cases.
There’s so much more that I could list, but I won’t bother because why would I?
Why do you think you’ve never heard of this Philly?
Did Biden do the best job possible in Afghanistan or could he have planned better?
The Philosophersaid:
You realise all those bills you mentioned were subsidies to corporations right? Thats not an achievement. Immigration judges…frankly I would have very uh, different methods to deal with ‘asylum’ seekers.
Erichthoniussaid:
That’s a good video and echoes many of my feelings toward people like Mugabe.
If you’re pro-worker, you vote for Biden, not the guy giving tax cuts to the wealthy.
People who show political apathy are intellectually lazy and “lethargic devils.” Bothsideism is one of the worst mentalities you can have.
I agree. It’s fine for pro-worker people to support a primary challenge against Biden (I support Marianne Williamson), but once it’s clear he’s going to be the nominee, it’s intellectually inconsistent to not vote for him.
Erichthoniussaid:
“You realise all those bills you mentioned were subsidies to corporations right?”
You’re such a dumbass.
Why don’t you actually read what these bills are about instead of just oversimplifying everything?
Do you realize that Biden is pumping up the IRS to go after the wealthiest Americans? He’s about to tax unrealized capital gains for households worth over 100 mil. He is not some corporate shill. He’s boosting certain industries to give more economic power away from China and back to the US. As well as trying to fight against climate change. Do you even know about the shit he’s doing for healthcare at the moment? I can’t completely blame you, it’s not like the news is talking about it either.
“frankly I would have very uh, different methods to deal with ‘asylum’ seekers.”
Yes, we know because you’re a racist retard whose only opinion ever is “imMiGraNTs bAd!” You have absolutely no comprehension of the economic ramifications of immigration.
AK, why do you think those people are leaving in droves? Could possibly be due to the US government (CIA) destabilizing those countries… You should look into that, it’s pretty crazy.
Santosaid:
More than the “American” media is woke. Biden, white, straight and old man, is not the most loved by them.
Tonight I was in a wedding on the side of my wife. There were lots of real cocky guys that decided to do a crushing hands completion. My hands grip is not really human. So everyone was thrown on their knees. My wife said it was very unsenstive of me to sort of castrate all those young men and I felt she was right, because I don’t care about strength.
That’s really a case of my not being a « normie » gives bad consequences that I didn’t intend. I just had fun and I didn’t see any social aspect. I would have been ok if someone like my grand father would have crushed me, it’s just Gaussian distribution of strength for me.
Anyway at the same time I think she likes being with a gentil giant 🙂
I still have really good childhood friends and also really good coworkers I’ve met over the past 15 years over two jobs. …You wouldn’t know anything about that though, since you can’t hold down a job.
Erichthoniussaid:
Lol, Philo has never been to a wedding. Usually, people shower for those kinds of events.
It’s the worst getting a limp girly handshake. I always look at “men” differently when I get a weak, limp handshake. (Naturally, I have a solid strong drip due to the lifts I do.)
Yea… Seems a bit “strange” to me… Anyway, if you have a weak grip, start deadlifting and doing weighted chin ups and after 6 months or so your grip will be solid. (obviously increasing weight when you hit your rep range.) I’ve also used a rope with a 5 or 10 pound weight tied on it and lower it down and brought it up and that works too. But the deads/chins combo is solid and will have anyone increase their grip strength like that.
The Philosophersaid:
Melo here is Biden’s real record:
Strong NLRB (because Bernie), strong FTC (Bernie), tried to negotiate international corporate tax deal (Bernie), student loans (Bernie), won’t bomb Iran (because not mentally ill), and a bunch of weak sauce stuff like minor gun reform and so on.
To be fair to Biden he can’t do much because his own party is corrupt and owned by republican donors. 8 democrat senators voted against the minimum wage lol. So bad.
Biden himself is a pretty standard corporate democrat. If blacks didn’t exist, Bernie would be president.
You don’t know Biden’s record because you’re uneducated.
“Strong NLRB (because Bernie), strong FTC (Bernie), tried to negotiate international corporate tax deal (Bernie), student loans (Bernie)”
That’s not how this works; Bernie doesn’t get credit for the shit that Biden did. The video Pumpkin posted made a good point about how Bernie helped shift the Overton window more to the left, but Bernie definitely wouldn’t have been able to accomplish half of what Biden has because he is incapable of negotiation. It’s an admirable personality trait to an extent but (thankfully) our system works best when there is more bipartisanship.
“Biden himself is a pretty standard corporate democrat.”
Said no one with a brain.
“If blacks didn’t exist, Bernie would be president.”
I think the reason Biden has been better than expected, despite showing signs of cognitive decline, is (1) his working class background (2) half a century of political experience, and (3) he can’t really be bought because he’s too old to bother cashing out after his presidency like Obama and Clinton did.
The Philosophersaid:
Melo you are about 100 points dumber than me. Biden was literally known as ‘the senator from MBNA’ (a credit card company). Delaware is basically the ireland of US states, its a tax haven. He is Penn, but got elected in Delaware to be a shill. Put 2+2 together for once.
Hunter Biden….basically the Biden’s make a bit of money on the side….
All biden’s real achievements are because of pressure from Bernie period. If Bernie tweets that Biden is a shill, he loses 50% of the vote easily. Nobody likes Biden. All the polls say it. But bernie is the most popular politician in the US.
I like Biden in the sense that it could be even worse. It could be Hilary. It could be Rahm Emmanual. It could be worse, I get that. But the low IQ blacks propped up this guy vs Bernie. Period.
Erichthoniussaid:
“Put 2+2 together for once.”
Your stupidity is so severe it hurts.
Biden can’t be enacting all of Bernie’s policies while simultaneously being against the working class. You’re literally contradicting yourself, but you don’t even notice that because YOU HAVE A LOW IQ.
The Philosophersaid:
If you took Bernies policies and simply added trumps immigration policies, you basically have the picture perfect political candidate.
That was the case in Bruno’s native France where Le Pen ran on this against a neoliberal.
And the french…homeland of the French revolution….voted for the ancestor of the wig and perfume wearing aristocrats.
The sad thing is Trump probably could have got away with adopting Bernie’s economic policies, but Bernie would not have been able to adopt Trump’s immigration policies. But Bernie’s economic policies are retarded. Free college everyone! Let’s waste trillions of dollars of tax payer money studying queer black women and the transmen who love them. Wealth tax. Every year sell your house and move and tank the stock market to pay 1% of your net worth!!
I have three possible explanations that could explain this:
(1) High BP can damage blood vessels in the brain, which leads to reduced blood flow. This is called “cerebral hypoperfusion.” The reduced blood flow can deprive the cells in the brain of oxygen and nutrients, which cause them to shrink or die which leads to decreased brain volume (BV).
(2) Over a long period of time having high BP, this can cause hypertensive encephalopathy, which is basically brain swelling. A rapid increase in BP could over the short term increase BV, but left untreated it could lead to brain damage and atrophy over time.
And (3) Chronically high BP can lead to the creation of white matter lesions on the brain, and the lesions are areas of damaged brain tissue which could result in microvascular changes caused by high BP (hypertension, HT). Thus, over time, the accumulation of white matter lesions could lead to a decrease in brain volume.
So we have (1) cerebral hypoperfusion, (2) hypertensive encephalopathy, and (3) white matter lesions. I need to think/read more on which of these could lead to decreased BV, or if they all actually work together to decrease BV. We know that HT damages blood vessels, and of course there are blood vessels in the brain, so it then follows that HT would decrease BV. I’ll write more on this soon.
Is it not possible that they have the causation backwards? Maybe small brain size makes you dumber which makes it harder to manage your life and diet, leading to high blood pressure.
I don’t think it’s that simple. Even then, a small brain in the average range coukd be indicative of stressors, pre-natal environment, bad nutrition, and negative life events. These are then related to social class.
I think it comes down to education—educating people on actionable things they can do to lessen the effects of HT can and do work. For instance, between blacks and whites, education and not ancestry better explains BP disparities between them.
And the three possible mechanisms I cited are pretty well-discussed in the literature on this. It’s a simple logical relationship between BP (HT), what we know about what it does to blood vessels, and it’s relationship to the brain, so I don’t think your attempt at an explanation holds water due to how we know the mechanism works with regard to BP.
The Philosophersaid:
RR simply does not have the verbal intelligence to think like that Puppy. Leave him alone. RR is happiest reading books with pictures of rainbows and black people in them.
“Philosopher” simply does not have the “verbal intelligence” to think beyond “the Jews did it, reject papers written by Jews that say things I don’t like but accept papers written by Jews that say things I agree with.” You don’t have the knowledge to talk about any of these things.
The normal advice is solid—exercise, healthy diet (less sodium, but I need to read more into it it’s been a while; probiotics), diabetes and obesity increase the odds for HT, so make sure A1C is in normal range as well as weight. (This isn’t medical advice, consult your PCP.)
Last time I had my BP checked I was 106/62 and I smoke so that’s a damn good BP. My diet and lifting are obviously helping.
LOADEDsaid:
you smoke what exactly? crack?
Erichthoniussaid:
At the last physical, my BP was at 118/72. But I have gained some weight and hypertension runs in my family. So, that’s probably good considering those factors.
My doctor says only the top number matters. Blood pressure is extremely unreliable. You should take it at least 3 times in one sitting and average the results.
It must blow Melos little mind that I would vote Trump in the republican primary and turn around and vote for the jew, Bernie in the democrat primary and be totally ideologically consistent and pro worker.
I am more working class than Melo, RR and Anime combined.
The Bernie-Trump crossover is a myth. Only 12% of Bernie voters voted for Trump.
Erichthoniussaid:
I didn’t say it was a large amount.
But the connection is obvious. If you were a Bernie supporter and you voted for Trump in 2016, it’s probably because you thought Trump was anti-establishment.
Santosaid:
Defending for worker rights but wait en masse immigration too… en masse immigration policy is not directly against the basic rights of native working class???

Lurkersaid:
““Anti-racism” is a good thing and I’d love to hear the argument that it isn’t.”
Try to have more nuance Mr. citation machine.
The point of racism is not to stop whoever is the object of the racism from feeling bad, it’s to prevent the dangers that occur when races are treated the same.
You can show spuriously that racism may increase AA violence and criminality… but even if that were true, we don’t know what tragedies it has prevented.
Kind of like telling a kid not to touch a hot stove might make them temporarily feel bad because you’ve denied them something they wanted to do, but it prevents the much bigger problem of a burnt hand.
In this case, racism may have prevented much of the US from becoming an African country and having similar rates of poverty, sickness, and criminality. It might have helped preserve Western culture, which is much more successful and seems to depend largely on the existence of White people.
Teffec P.said:
Anti-racist just means that you’re intolerant of explanation for intergroup difference in behavior and achievement beyond its being a consequence of white male gentile hegemony. That’s all it means. A Jewish professor of psychology had his UCLA offer rescinded because he questioned the efficacy of DEI.
DEI is going to make us D-I-E. If I get on a plane and see a black lesbian in the cockpit, I’m disembarking on the spot. I’ll tell you that much.

LOADEDsaid:

LOADEDsaid:
RR and Melo if you cant explain whatever you believe 2 a five year old aka yourselves then clearly your demonstrations of intellectual capacity are futile.
Humans are so abnormal compared to all other species that many bottleneck events, that tend to lead to inbreeding, seem like a very reasonable hypothesis to explain our exceptionality. In fact, the fact that human childbirth is so painful for women seems an example of an evolutionary mismatch in which the human brain enlarged too quickly for the female human body to have time to evolve and adapt to its size.
It’s always weird to me when I meet people who think Africans and Europeans are of the same intelligence. I tend to forget others haven’t spent as much time on sites like this.
The first thing the danes will say when you get the IQ results from africa is that the tests were rigged against blacks. Once you defeat that, they will then say the blacks lack ‘education’ or nutrition. Once that is defeated they will then say that the study wasn’t rigorous enough statistically. Then they will say the funders of the study were white gentiles. Then they will say other rigged results they have are more accurate. Then they will say that IQ doesn’t exist as a concept. Then finally they will say you are being racist.
“Philosopher” doesn’t understand that this increases the incidences of black crime. Learn about Unnever and Gabbidon’s theory. You won’t, you’ll just continue spewing racist garbage.
Extreme disrespectfulness, from throughing garbage in the streets, treating people with zero respect, to criminality, make even australian aboriginals cautious or suspicious about subsaharian blacks. They are one of the most ableistic, homophobic, misogynic (and racist) people in the world, i mean, cruel. But we live in a version of 1984’s story. And blacks tend to be extremely cruel among themselves, even more than usually happens with other ethnic and racial groups.
Danes created a perfect crime blaming ordinary white for everything bad while they are among the wealthiest and powerful in the world. You must be a trained puppy to not take notes about what’s really happening. They scapegoating whites, what (many but not all) gentile whites did against them during a long time in the past. Basically a revenge.
Most of pseudo social justice today is basically emotional blackmail while justice is the systematic practice of truth, If what’s fair is what is truer. Most of pseudo science created to rationalize the induced collective suicide of white people imposed by jewry and their gentile collaborators are basically fallacies semantically manipulated, like “anti racist” fallacies, for example, “mixing race is morally good. Being against it is morally wrong (???) because is racist”. Beucase racism is an abstract word it must be define in very objective and impartial way… as possible, but who are those who have defining the “official” concept of racism???
This thing that the shadowy Jews are the cause for the wrongs in the world is pretty funny. Whites aren’t having babies—must be the Jews. People are more anti-racist today—must be the Jews. I stubbed my toe—must be the Jews. Jews Jews Jews. Jews this, Jews that. Conspiratorial thinking is…. How do I say this… “Not intelligent” to use PP’s words. Can you marshal any evidence that it’s “the Jews” that are responsible for what you’re claiming? Remember back in February when you said the Jews did the slave trade and I refuted that and you had no response? Let’s see if it’s the same here.
And if you want to know what “racism” is, then read this and see the physiological damage that occurs due to it (along with the fact that racial discrimination and stereotypes increase black criminal offending). (In before incoherent nonsense that doesn’t address any of these points.)
RRs IQ is too low for this blog thread. He literally quotes jewish papers to us every single thread and then turns around and says we’re stupid for accusing jews for pushing anti-racism.

There is an emphasis and tone in the way people speak. And the inflection of each word. This is not the same with vision but can be processed with sounds. A place setting and atmosphere.
The abbreviation in this is that one must seek within to find answers. There are no continuous actions one can take. A pause is necessary.

differences in cerebral blood flow between men and women may help explain why women tend to “be stronger in empathy and intuition, as well as self-control”
“females’ brains consistently showed more strongly coordinated activity between hemispheres…”
In other words, the female brain may be more “skillful” regarding how the left and right hemispheres of the brain communicate.
– Higher levels of verbal ability.
– Stronger reading comprehension and writing ability.
– More attuned fine-motor skills.
– More adept at retrieving information from long-term memory.
– Faster perceptual (sensual interpretation) speed.
“Using brain imaging data from 46,034 men and women, (researchers) found that women’s brains were significantly more active (with higher blood flow) in many more areas than men’s brains, especially in the prefrontal cortex, which is involved with focus and impulse control, and the emotional areas involved with mood and anxiety.”

What are you trying to get at Santo?
Imagine thinking there are such things as “male and female brains.”
You do not think men and women are different mentally in general?
Is that an entailment from the claim that male and female brains don’t exist?
if variance between male and female humans exists,
where is that variance located?
I tried to explain that here.
rr if men and women are the same things then there should be no reason to differentiate between them.
in other words, you believe men and women are only different because of culture, not biology. There should be no reason for sexual attraction and no reason for psychological differences.
No one’s saying “they’re the same”—I proposed a reason for why they score differently. Imagine telling me—who’s into anatomy and physiology—that I think biology “doesn’t matter.”
rr aspects of men and women exist.
so I ask where that is? Where is male and female psychology located?
You are saying males’ and females’ brains develop in the exact same way? Thus are they the same?
“Where is male and female psychology located?” – what is this nonsense?
There is no such thing as “male and female brains”, that was my original claim. Read my article I linked and read this and you won’t ask such nonsense questions.
He’s criticizing genetic determinism, Cat. Obviously, Males and Females have different developmental trajectories and, as such, develop different types of local functionalization in the brain. But the idea of “male and female brains” is historically associated with genetic determinism, which RR is adamantly against.
>Males and Females have different developmental trajectories and, as such, develop different types of local functionalization in the brain.
Yes, this is true but rr has all sorts of dumb terminologies that you must pass through before we can get the core truth of things melo.
male and female brains exist because they develop differently. but rr cannot admit that this is true, that the outcome of development is a different brain between them.
Why do you keep repeating the claim that “male and female brains exist” when it’s not true? Lise Eliot’s 2021 review showed that the human brain isn’t dimorphic, it’s monomorphic and that the only reliable difference between the brains of men and the brains of women is an 11 percent size difference.
“Nonetheless, it is notable that the 11 % brain volume difference between men and women is smaller than the s/g difference in other internal organs, including the heart (17 %), lung (23 %), liver (14 %), pancreas (18 %), kidney (19 %), and thyroid (25 %; de la Grandmaison et al., 2001).”

No, that is not what makes men and women different.
Yea that explains 1% of the difference. Your photo says “male and female brains” when that’s clear bullshit.
Hahaha wow, now hes saying theres no difference between male and female minds. Hahaha.
There aren’t “male and female brains” insofar as male brains are blue and female brains pink, but to equivocate in such a way as to gainsay any demonstrable neuromorphological differences between sexes and their implications is pure semantic, pseudo-egalitarian bullshit. You may as well say that intersex difference in height doesn’t exist by saying there’s no such thing as “male height and female height.”
I’d advise reading the paper before saying anything.
>the only reliable difference between the brains of men and the brains of women
I thought that women had more coordination between hemispheres of the brain.
I see this said everywhere I search on Google.
Is this incorrect?
What are the consequences if this is true?
and
are men and women different in psychology?
What causes that?
That’s accounted for by the 11 percent size difference.
Are you saying that proportionally the ratio is the same with a difference of only 1%. Or is it the case that the corpus callosum in females is larger than males proportionally by 11%?
I’m saying they the differences that are traditionally observed between men and women are due to the 11 percent brain size difference between them—for someone so interested in neuroscience, you don’t see so eager to read a paper which directly refutes the claim that human brains are “dimorphic”, that is, there are “two kinds of brain.”
I think RR’s point is that sex differences in the brain are continuous, not discrete:
The main difference between discrete and continuous variables is that discrete variables represent countable, distinct values, whereas continuous variables represent uncountable, infinite data, usually as measurements. Essentially, discrete variables have countable values like the number of toys in a box, while continuous variables have measurable values within a defined range like the distance you walk in a day.
The table below summarizes the key differences between discrete and continuous variables and provides a few more examples.
https://articles.outlier.org/discrete-vs-continuous-variables
Sex differences in genitalia would be discrete, but sex differences in height would be continuous.

I don’t know AK, that review is pretty in depth and comprehensive, I think. It’s obvious that the only difference between the brains of men and women are an 11 percent difference, and the differences we see between them are due to that difference.
It’s obvious that the only difference between the brains of men and women are an 11 percent difference, and the differences we see between them are due to that difference.
I thought you said the physical can’t affect the mental
I’m talking about the observed differences in neuroscientific studies.
Hahaha “philosopher” again sticking his nose where it doesn’t belong.
Answer the question RR – is the 11% size difference having any effect on men vs women psychology?
^^^ Low IQ. I did answer the question. I’ll start calling you “TP”—the “philosopher” or “toilet paper”—since that’s all your comments ever amount to.
Funny how you ask me to “Answer the question” when you NEVER answer direct questions to you and NEVER provide references for your empirical claims. But I’m not you, so here’s an argument.
If brain size directly caused differences in psychology between men and women, then we would expect individuals with larger brains to consistently exhibit distinct psychological traits compared to those with smaller brains. But studies and observations show that individuals with larger brains do not consistently exhibit distinct psychological traits associated with their gender. So, the 11 percent brain size difference between men and women does not directly cause differences in psychology between the genders.
Where are your references that blacks have higher T than whites and that this higher T translates into higher aggression?

Decades from now, Biden will be remembered as one of the most effective presidents in the modern era. His approval rating would be much higher, and he’d be unbeatable for re-election if the media focused more on his accomplishments rather than how old he is.
Another reason there is no left-bias media.
What accomplishments lol?
Got us out of Afghanistan, Inflation Reduction Act, CHIPS Act, PACT Act, and Student Loan Forgiveness. He took several steps to expand the number of immigration judges, including requesting additional funding from Congress, accelerating the hiring process, and hiring judges from various backgrounds. He has also taken steps to improve the working conditions for immigration judges and address the backlog of immigration cases.
There’s so much more that I could list, but I won’t bother because why would I?
Why do you think you’ve never heard of this Philly?
Interesting debate about Biden vs Trump:
>Got us out of Afghanistan
That was a done deal before Biden.
But Biden let the Taliban take over, it was a publicity nightmare.
not to mention all the weapons we left behind.
Vietnam 2.0
Afghanistan was not a done deal. Trump could have done it but not only did he fail to but he attacked Biden for doing it
Trump was the one who set the time table did he not? Sept 2021?
Trump also said he’d build a wall.
Did Biden do the best job possible in Afghanistan or could he have planned better?
You realise all those bills you mentioned were subsidies to corporations right? Thats not an achievement. Immigration judges…frankly I would have very uh, different methods to deal with ‘asylum’ seekers.
That’s a good video and echoes many of my feelings toward people like Mugabe.
If you’re pro-worker, you vote for Biden, not the guy giving tax cuts to the wealthy.
People who show political apathy are intellectually lazy and “lethargic devils.” Bothsideism is one of the worst mentalities you can have.
I agree. It’s fine for pro-worker people to support a primary challenge against Biden (I support Marianne Williamson), but once it’s clear he’s going to be the nominee, it’s intellectually inconsistent to not vote for him.
“You realise all those bills you mentioned were subsidies to corporations right?”
You’re such a dumbass.
Why don’t you actually read what these bills are about instead of just oversimplifying everything?
Do you realize that Biden is pumping up the IRS to go after the wealthiest Americans? He’s about to tax unrealized capital gains for households worth over 100 mil. He is not some corporate shill. He’s boosting certain industries to give more economic power away from China and back to the US. As well as trying to fight against climate change. Do you even know about the shit he’s doing for healthcare at the moment? I can’t completely blame you, it’s not like the news is talking about it either.
“frankly I would have very uh, different methods to deal with ‘asylum’ seekers.”
Yes, we know because you’re a racist retard whose only opinion ever is “imMiGraNTs bAd!” You have absolutely no comprehension of the economic ramifications of immigration.
>the economic ramifications of immigration.
The collapse of South and Central America is not a good thing melo.
It’s always amazing to me to see non-Americans talk about American politics.
AK, why do you think those people are leaving in droves? Could possibly be due to the US government (CIA) destabilizing those countries… You should look into that, it’s pretty crazy.
More than the “American” media is woke. Biden, white, straight and old man, is not the most loved by them.
Tonight I was in a wedding on the side of my wife. There were lots of real cocky guys that decided to do a crushing hands completion. My hands grip is not really human. So everyone was thrown on their knees. My wife said it was very unsenstive of me to sort of castrate all those young men and I felt she was right, because I don’t care about strength.
That’s really a case of my not being a « normie » gives bad consequences that I didn’t intend. I just had fun and I didn’t see any social aspect. I would have been ok if someone like my grand father would have crushed me, it’s just Gaussian distribution of strength for me.
Anyway at the same time I think she likes being with a gentil giant 🙂
Grip strength has a positive correlation to Intelligence.
What kind of fucked up wedding ends up in a grip strength contest among the men? Are all the men autistic there?
Have you ever been to a wedding pill?
Zero weddings I have been to ended up like that.
Philosopher, keep outing yourself as someone that’s not sociable. Damn man, go outside and make some friends.
I’ve been to one wedding, 8 years ago. A friend of mine. I had a blast. Amazing food, amazing drinks, great night overall.
I still have really good childhood friends and also really good coworkers I’ve met over the past 15 years over two jobs. …You wouldn’t know anything about that though, since you can’t hold down a job.
Lol, Philo has never been to a wedding. Usually, people shower for those kinds of events.
“Philosopher” shows absolutely no social skills at all. Bet he’s single with no kids.

It’s the worst getting a limp girly handshake. I always look at “men” differently when I get a weak, limp handshake. (Naturally, I have a solid strong drip due to the lifts I do.)
I would love to handshake you gently RR. You look strong 😉
Same tbh. It’s the bare minimum.
LOL, what the fuck.
Yea… Seems a bit “strange” to me… Anyway, if you have a weak grip, start deadlifting and doing weighted chin ups and after 6 months or so your grip will be solid. (obviously increasing weight when you hit your rep range.) I’ve also used a rope with a 5 or 10 pound weight tied on it and lower it down and brought it up and that works too. But the deads/chins combo is solid and will have anyone increase their grip strength like that.
Melo here is Biden’s real record:
Strong NLRB (because Bernie), strong FTC (Bernie), tried to negotiate international corporate tax deal (Bernie), student loans (Bernie), won’t bomb Iran (because not mentally ill), and a bunch of weak sauce stuff like minor gun reform and so on.
To be fair to Biden he can’t do much because his own party is corrupt and owned by republican donors. 8 democrat senators voted against the minimum wage lol. So bad.
Biden himself is a pretty standard corporate democrat. If blacks didn’t exist, Bernie would be president.
“Melo here is Biden’s real record:”
You don’t know Biden’s record because you’re uneducated.
“Strong NLRB (because Bernie), strong FTC (Bernie), tried to negotiate international corporate tax deal (Bernie), student loans (Bernie)”
That’s not how this works; Bernie doesn’t get credit for the shit that Biden did. The video Pumpkin posted made a good point about how Bernie helped shift the Overton window more to the left, but Bernie definitely wouldn’t have been able to accomplish half of what Biden has because he is incapable of negotiation. It’s an admirable personality trait to an extent but (thankfully) our system works best when there is more bipartisanship.
“Biden himself is a pretty standard corporate democrat.”
Said no one with a brain.
“If blacks didn’t exist, Bernie would be president.”
Thank god blacks don’t know what they’re doing.
Thank god blacks don’t know what they’re doing.
LOL!
I think the reason Biden has been better than expected, despite showing signs of cognitive decline, is (1) his working class background (2) half a century of political experience, and (3) he can’t really be bought because he’s too old to bother cashing out after his presidency like Obama and Clinton did.
Melo you are about 100 points dumber than me. Biden was literally known as ‘the senator from MBNA’ (a credit card company). Delaware is basically the ireland of US states, its a tax haven. He is Penn, but got elected in Delaware to be a shill. Put 2+2 together for once.
Hunter Biden….basically the Biden’s make a bit of money on the side….
All biden’s real achievements are because of pressure from Bernie period. If Bernie tweets that Biden is a shill, he loses 50% of the vote easily. Nobody likes Biden. All the polls say it. But bernie is the most popular politician in the US.
I like Biden in the sense that it could be even worse. It could be Hilary. It could be Rahm Emmanual. It could be worse, I get that. But the low IQ blacks propped up this guy vs Bernie. Period.
“Put 2+2 together for once.”
Your stupidity is so severe it hurts.
Biden can’t be enacting all of Bernie’s policies while simultaneously being against the working class. You’re literally contradicting yourself, but you don’t even notice that because YOU HAVE A LOW IQ.
If you took Bernies policies and simply added trumps immigration policies, you basically have the picture perfect political candidate.
That was the case in Bruno’s native France where Le Pen ran on this against a neoliberal.
And the french…homeland of the French revolution….voted for the ancestor of the wig and perfume wearing aristocrats.
The sad thing is Trump probably could have got away with adopting Bernie’s economic policies, but Bernie would not have been able to adopt Trump’s immigration policies. But Bernie’s economic policies are retarded. Free college everyone! Let’s waste trillions of dollars of tax payer money studying queer black women and the transmen who love them. Wealth tax. Every year sell your house and move and tank the stock market to pay 1% of your net worth!!
“If you took Bernies policies and simply added trumps immigration policies”
Yeah, that’s called Nazism. Anti-immigration = bad economy.
The collapse of Syria, Libya and Yemen is not a good thing melo.
Trump is a loser. he will never amount 2 anything in this world. he is a freak! an orange freak!
Comments here have been much higher quality recently.

Interesting paper on how high BP can lead to a reduction in brain volume.
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23811995/
I have three possible explanations that could explain this:
(1) High BP can damage blood vessels in the brain, which leads to reduced blood flow. This is called “cerebral hypoperfusion.” The reduced blood flow can deprive the cells in the brain of oxygen and nutrients, which cause them to shrink or die which leads to decreased brain volume (BV).
(2) Over a long period of time having high BP, this can cause hypertensive encephalopathy, which is basically brain swelling. A rapid increase in BP could over the short term increase BV, but left untreated it could lead to brain damage and atrophy over time.
And (3) Chronically high BP can lead to the creation of white matter lesions on the brain, and the lesions are areas of damaged brain tissue which could result in microvascular changes caused by high BP (hypertension, HT). Thus, over time, the accumulation of white matter lesions could lead to a decrease in brain volume.
So we have (1) cerebral hypoperfusion, (2) hypertensive encephalopathy, and (3) white matter lesions. I need to think/read more on which of these could lead to decreased BV, or if they all actually work together to decrease BV. We know that HT damages blood vessels, and of course there are blood vessels in the brain, so it then follows that HT would decrease BV. I’ll write more on this soon.
Is it not possible that they have the causation backwards? Maybe small brain size makes you dumber which makes it harder to manage your life and diet, leading to high blood pressure.
I don’t think it’s that simple. Even then, a small brain in the average range coukd be indicative of stressors, pre-natal environment, bad nutrition, and negative life events. These are then related to social class.
I think it comes down to education—educating people on actionable things they can do to lessen the effects of HT can and do work. For instance, between blacks and whites, education and not ancestry better explains BP disparities between them.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3464817/
And the study I cited above was from 2013. Here’s a newer (2021) systematic review and meta-analysis which found the same thing.
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/349156103_Higher_Blood_Pressure_is_Associated_with_Greater_White_Matter_Lesions_and_Brain_Atrophy_A_Systematic_Review_with_Meta-Analysis
And the three possible mechanisms I cited are pretty well-discussed in the literature on this. It’s a simple logical relationship between BP (HT), what we know about what it does to blood vessels, and it’s relationship to the brain, so I don’t think your attempt at an explanation holds water due to how we know the mechanism works with regard to BP.
RR simply does not have the verbal intelligence to think like that Puppy. Leave him alone. RR is happiest reading books with pictures of rainbows and black people in them.
“Philosopher” simply does not have the “verbal intelligence” to think beyond “the Jews did it, reject papers written by Jews that say things I don’t like but accept papers written by Jews that say things I agree with.” You don’t have the knowledge to talk about any of these things.
Jews control RR’s mind. Fact.
You’re the one constantly talking about “the Danes”, so who’s mind do they control? You’re such a clown.
Oof. What are the best ways to avoid hypertension?
The normal advice is solid—exercise, healthy diet (less sodium, but I need to read more into it it’s been a while; probiotics), diabetes and obesity increase the odds for HT, so make sure A1C is in normal range as well as weight. (This isn’t medical advice, consult your PCP.)
Last time I had my BP checked I was 106/62 and I smoke so that’s a damn good BP. My diet and lifting are obviously helping.
you smoke what exactly? crack?
At the last physical, my BP was at 118/72. But I have gained some weight and hypertension runs in my family. So, that’s probably good considering those factors.
That’s a decent BP. The guidelines were changed a few years ago from 140/90 to 130/90. It’s good to be actionable about it.
My doctor says only the top number matters. Blood pressure is extremely unreliable. You should take it at least 3 times in one sitting and average the results.
I agree with that.
I had a panic attack in June.
I reached stage 1 hypertension.
It must blow Melos little mind that I would vote Trump in the republican primary and turn around and vote for the jew, Bernie in the democrat primary and be totally ideologically consistent and pro worker.
I am more working class than Melo, RR and Anime combined.
LMAO
It’s so adorable that Philo thinks he has nuanced thoughts.
The connection between Bernie and Trump Supporters is so obvious. The difference is, if you think Trump is anti-establishment you’re a gullible moron.
The 2016 election was one of the largest social intelligence tests. If you voted for Trump, YOU ARE AUTISTIC.
The Bernie-Trump crossover is a myth. Only 12% of Bernie voters voted for Trump.
I didn’t say it was a large amount.
But the connection is obvious. If you were a Bernie supporter and you voted for Trump in 2016, it’s probably because you thought Trump was anti-establishment.

“Anti-racism” is a fundamental part of globalist propaganda
“Anti-racism” is a good thing and I’d love to hear the argument that it isn’t.
““Anti-racism” is a good thing and I’d love to hear the argument that it isn’t.”
Try to have more nuance Mr. citation machine.
The point of racism is not to stop whoever is the object of the racism from feeling bad, it’s to prevent the dangers that occur when races are treated the same.
You can show spuriously that racism may increase AA violence and criminality… but even if that were true, we don’t know what tragedies it has prevented.
Kind of like telling a kid not to touch a hot stove might make them temporarily feel bad because you’ve denied them something they wanted to do, but it prevents the much bigger problem of a burnt hand.
In this case, racism may have prevented much of the US from becoming an African country and having similar rates of poverty, sickness, and criminality. It might have helped preserve Western culture, which is much more successful and seems to depend largely on the existence of White people.
Anti-racist just means that you’re intolerant of explanation for intergroup difference in behavior and achievement beyond its being a consequence of white male gentile hegemony. That’s all it means. A Jewish professor of psychology had his UCLA offer rescinded because he questioned the efficacy of DEI.
DEI is going to make us D-I-E. If I get on a plane and see a black lesbian in the cockpit, I’m disembarking on the spot. I’ll tell you that much.

Oprah big head = Hapsburg big chin.
Toba catastrophe was a huge event that shaped our species so yes there probably was a lot of inbreeding going on that led 2 higher intelligence.
interesting perspective.
Humans are so abnormal compared to all other species that many bottleneck events, that tend to lead to inbreeding, seem like a very reasonable hypothesis to explain our exceptionality. In fact, the fact that human childbirth is so painful for women seems an example of an evolutionary mismatch in which the human brain enlarged too quickly for the female human body to have time to evolve and adapt to its size.
Good point, Loaded.
But stupid laws also helped him.
The easiest way to settle the Lynn dataset issues is simply to send out people to test africans.
Obviously, we know what the results are going to be, but some people need to see the data and look at what R selection is about.
It’s always weird to me when I meet people who think Africans and Europeans are of the same intelligence. I tend to forget others haven’t spent as much time on sites like this.
The first thing the danes will say when you get the IQ results from africa is that the tests were rigged against blacks. Once you defeat that, they will then say the blacks lack ‘education’ or nutrition. Once that is defeated they will then say that the study wasn’t rigorous enough statistically. Then they will say the funders of the study were white gentiles. Then they will say other rigged results they have are more accurate. Then they will say that IQ doesn’t exist as a concept. Then finally they will say you are being racist.
“The first thing the danes will say when you get the IQ results from africa is that the tests were rigged against blacks”
Yea you don’t know anything about IQ tests.
“they will then say the blacks lack ‘education’ or nutrition”
Because this is true?
You’re just straight ignorant (racist which is redundant).
other way around first they will call you racist and then they will say IQ doesnt exist etc.
actually this is what already happened if anything.
Puppy is woke central. He worships and obese liberal black woman. But even Puppy will admit blacks have very low IQs.
The debate is around the causes.
I think Melo just can’t comprehend why a person would hate blacks. He is in the minority of people that don’t get that instinct around them.
“Philosopher” doesn’t understand that this increases the incidences of black crime. Learn about Unnever and Gabbidon’s theory. You won’t, you’ll just continue spewing racist garbage.

ftfy
Extreme disrespectfulness, from throughing garbage in the streets, treating people with zero respect, to criminality, make even australian aboriginals cautious or suspicious about subsaharian blacks. They are one of the most ableistic, homophobic, misogynic (and racist) people in the world, i mean, cruel. But we live in a version of 1984’s story. And blacks tend to be extremely cruel among themselves, even more than usually happens with other ethnic and racial groups.
Danes created a perfect crime blaming ordinary white for everything bad while they are among the wealthiest and powerful in the world. You must be a trained puppy to not take notes about what’s really happening. They scapegoating whites, what (many but not all) gentile whites did against them during a long time in the past. Basically a revenge.
Most of pseudo social justice today is basically emotional blackmail while justice is the systematic practice of truth, If what’s fair is what is truer. Most of pseudo science created to rationalize the induced collective suicide of white people imposed by jewry and their gentile collaborators are basically fallacies semantically manipulated, like “anti racist” fallacies, for example, “mixing race is morally good. Being against it is morally wrong (???) because is racist”. Beucase racism is an abstract word it must be define in very objective and impartial way… as possible, but who are those who have defining the “official” concept of racism???
What’s the argument that anti-racism is wrong?
This thing that the shadowy Jews are the cause for the wrongs in the world is pretty funny. Whites aren’t having babies—must be the Jews. People are more anti-racist today—must be the Jews. I stubbed my toe—must be the Jews. Jews Jews Jews. Jews this, Jews that. Conspiratorial thinking is…. How do I say this… “Not intelligent” to use PP’s words. Can you marshal any evidence that it’s “the Jews” that are responsible for what you’re claiming? Remember back in February when you said the Jews did the slave trade and I refuted that and you had no response? Let’s see if it’s the same here.
And if you want to know what “racism” is, then read this and see the physiological damage that occurs due to it (along with the fact that racial discrimination and stereotypes increase black criminal offending). (In before incoherent nonsense that doesn’t address any of these points.)
RRs IQ is too low for this blog thread. He literally quotes jewish papers to us every single thread and then turns around and says we’re stupid for accusing jews for pushing anti-racism.
Nothing of substance as usual.
