You can easily watch the video of him taking the IQ test. He didn't take it seriously. There's no proof that he has 102 IQ. There is no way a super-grandmaster can have a 102 IQ. It's simply not possible.
You don't know what you're talking about.
The two biggest misconceptions among non players:
1) Chess skill is proportional to intelligence
2) Chess skill is proportional to calculation
As @Ziryab mentioned there have been studies that show these are misconceptions... although experienced players already knew.
I easily found a research paper here that contradicts what you said. Of course, calculation and IQ are proportional to chess skill... What is your logic here? https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2016/09/160913124722.htm#:~:text=Summary%3A,indicates%20a%20comprehensive%20new%20study.https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2016/09/160913124722.htm#:~:text=Summary%3A,indicates%20a%20comprehensive%20new%20study.
Your link is to a new article about the research. Here's a link to the article. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0160289616301593?via%3Dihub
You need institutional access to access the whole. I have such access. Go back in this thread several pages and you'll see that I shared the article several weeks ago.
Here's the abstract:
Why are some people more skilled in complex domains than other people? Here, we conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the relationship between cognitive ability and skill in chess. Chess skill correlated positively and significantly with fluid reasoning (Gf) (r = 0.24), comprehension-knowledge (Gc) (r = 0.22), short-term memory (Gsm) (r = 0.25), and processing speed (Gs) (r = 0.24); the meta-analytic average of the correlations was (r = 0.24). Moreover, the correlation between Gf and chess skill was moderated by age (r= 0.32 for youth samples vs.
r = 0.11 for adult samples), and skill level (r = 0.32 for unranked samples vs. r = 0.14 for ranked samples). Interestingly, chess skill correlated more strongly with numerical ability (r = 0.35) than with verbal ability (r = 0.19) or visuospatial ability (r = 0.13). The results suggest that cognitive ability contributes meaningfully to individual differences in chess skill, particularly in young chess players and/or at lower levels of skill.
Nothing in this research contributes meaningfully to a discussion of the IQ of GMs.
Keep falsely thinking that Hikaru's IQ is 102.
We don't know his IQ. He has not taken a test under appropriate conditions.
Very few GMs have taken an IQ test so far as has been publicly revealed. That's why there is no data for evaluating the grandiose claims of those who link chess skill to notions of genius. There is good reason to believe that most GMs are above average intelligence.
Someone who has done better than even Bobby Fischer with his 187 IQ at attaining the grandmaster rank can't be 102 IQ.
Literally so pathetic. Low-rated players think they have any hope to become a GM just because they think a super-grandmaster has 102 IQ. So foolish.
Nope, I don't think I can improve much anymore, I've been playing too long / I'm too old.
Kasparov took a real IQ test, and scored 135.
Little kids talk about pretend IQ tests, and rate all world champions (like Kasparov) near 200. These kids know nothing about chess or IQ.
You forgot to mention that he took that IQ test when he was retired in 2011.
