Thanks. I read Scott Kaufman’s book last fall. When I was researching the notion of talent for an article I was writing, an article he wrote on the subject brought his work to my attention. Ungifted: Intelligence Redefined offers a great overview of intelligence testing and its uses and abuses.
Interesting
I've also seen you post at least one message on every single thread i've been gone to, even completely random ones that are 1-2 years old

I ignore most threads. Maybe you’re interested in things I find interesting.
Maybe...wanna be friends?
...I'm concerned...what's pretty high?
Not always...as I said, someone can be a chess mastermind with having an average IQ, while being average with a high IQ
That was probably my 5th time saying it
itd 102
I googled it
You don't know if that's real, because if I remember correctly Hikaru took a mensa test just for fun
It may not be official
Hikaru's IQ is at least 25000. But it i clearly inferior to Magnus IQ which is 32177.
IQ was originally designed to measure the intelligence of some, as many may call it, "school subjects". However, after a while, the original creator realized that it couldn't measure creativity, emotional intelligence, etc., so they updated the IQ measuring system so that it could include some of those.
Although the concept of IQ as such was invented by American racists (Google Eugenics), many current intelligence tests, such as the Wechsler, are efforts to return to Alfred Binet’s original purpose.
