During our research, we found a video of you where someone asked you about IQ, and you said you were previously tested quite a while ago,

and you said it was in excess of 150.

Granted, it does decline as you age, and you also said having a high IQ like that means

that you have high volatility or variance in other areas of intelligence.

As intelligence increases, the variability and intelligence increases

so psychometrically there's sort of one way to be not very bright

and a variety of ways to be very bright

so there's differentiation at the upper end right and

so my i would say i'm not particularly gifted mathematically

so i struggled with statistics i eventually figured it out

but it certainly didn't come to me easily

i don't tend to think mathematically

i've certainly had students who were like immeasurably more intelligent than me on the mathematical front

i had a student at harvard

she went from zero statistics to winning teaching awards for teaching

it in about six months she was a little autistic

she was also a very good writer that's a rare combination to have that extreme

spatial mathematical intelligence and extreme verbal intelligence you get a person like

that now and then it's pretty rare and she was just coded

that way to be able to do that that wasn't anything that she did to be able to learn quickly?

IQ is very biologically determined.

Very.

And it's very, uh, it's very rough.

It's no wonder my student and I, Daniel Higgins, who is a partner of mine in business still, we, uh, at Harvard in the 1990s,

we did a lot of work investigating the world of psychometric measurement.

So that would be the assessment of cognitive ability and personality

and we delve very deeply into the literature on neuropsychological function

and so that would be that's from a field

that basically derived its information from animal experimental studies as well

as human beings study of human beings with various forms of brain damage

there was a an effort i don't know

if that's still ongoing to develop tests

that would be associated where people would show decrements

that were associated with known areas of brain damage they developed a lot of specialized tests my student

and i on my old supervisor we computerized a battery of

so -called neuropsychological tests and then we used them and iq tests

and personality to predict academic performance and managerial performance

and uh like line worker performance trying to figure out well two things what exactly is it

That makes someone productive depending on their positioning.

And then also how could that be measured effectively so that if you wanted to hire or place or promote,

you could do that in the most effective possible manner.

And so that meant that we had to thoroughly familiarize ourselves with the neuropsychological literature, which I already kind of knew,

with the IQ literature, which was quite new to me, and then with the personality literature.

And so the basic claim of the psychometricians on the IQ side is that for all intents and purposes, IQ is relatively unitary.

So intelligence, general cognitive ability, personality is multidimensional, but cognitive ability, although it differentiates at the upper end,

is a pretty solid unit.

And no one likes that idea.

And no wonder.

It's no wonder.

So why would people not like it? while it seems very unfair

and anti -egalitarian to note that there's wide variation in the trait

that is the best predictor of long -term success in complex occupations

it's not like the cards are dealt out equally they're not dealt out equally how much of

that is genetic most of it so

if you have smart parents you're probably going to be smart parents

you're going to be slightly less smart than the average of your parents because imagine

that your intelligence isn't determined only by your parents

it's determined in a way by the whole stream of your ancestry now

if you have two smart parents on average their ancestors are going to be slightly less smart than they are

so you get the best way to predict your iq

if we didn't know anything else would be to take the iq of your mother

and father and average them and then reduce it somewhat

because that's called regression towards the mean

so there's a tendency for biological forms to default back to their standard configuration

or increase it if the average was lower than yeah that's right

so if you had two parents who were impaired in their cognitive ability

or far below average on average you'd be smarter than they were would

that then suggest that with enough time we're all going to be about even

if everyone's kind of well yeah which is iq the average is 100

so hasn't it been going up over time though there's debate about

that um it's gone up over time in some ways for sure

so although it's difficult to increase iq you you get companies now

and then who pop up and claim

that they can increase your cognitive function there's zero evidence for

that there's no what happens if you

if you practice a complex task you tend to get much better at the complex task say a video game

but it doesn't transfer over

and make you generally smarter no one's figured out how to increase iq with with cognitive exercises you can maintain

or increase your iq with exercise cardiovascular and and weight lifting

because your brain is a very demanding organ so

if your cardiovascular system is healthy especially as you age that's a huge deal there's nothing

that you can do that's more important than staying in physical shape to maintain your cognitive ability

so but um nobody knows how to increase it i mean that would be a discovery of infinite value, but no one's figured it out.

You can suppress IQ quite easily by,

say, not stimulating young children to the degree that their intelligence has room to play,

let's say, or by not breastfeeding them.

That's a good way to have stupider children, if that's what you're after.

Breastfeeding confers, I think, something like a three to four point

increment per year breastfed it's something like why is

that is it just the bond nutrition the brain's a very demanding organ

and so it uses a tremendous amount of your metabolic resources

and so nutrition and exercise make a huge difference um so

if you take you asked about biological determinism with regards to iq

so imagine that you take twins identical twins who were separated at birth

and then you track their iq as they age well by the time they're 60 their iqs are

so similar regardless of their background that it's as

if you're testing the same person twice so strangely enough

if iq was environmentally determined you'd expect twins separated at birth to diverge as they age they don't they converge

so i can see that why

100

that uh makes people very upset there's a whole bunch of reasons to be upset by i mean the

101

when when daniel and i sorted this out in the 90s we thought

102

that this might be the shoal upon which western culture demolishes itself

103

because iq is a vicious predictor of long -term success

104

it's by far the best predictor it's five times as powerful as conscientiousness

105

which is the next best predictor so conscientiousness is associated with industriousness

106

and orderliness it's associated with political conservatism

107

it's associated with traditionalism out group let's say skepticism towards out groups to some degree that's conservatism more but um

108

and we probably can't measure conscientiousness as accurately as we can measure iq we have to rely on personality scales

109

and self self -report and reports from other people that's the best we've been able to manage

110

and no one has been able to come up with a

111

practical test of conscientiousness like i'm probably trying 50 things in

112

my lab bringing conscientious people into the lab giving them different sorts of tests seeing

113

if we could figure out what activity conscientious people would do better in the lab

114

so we could use that as a measure we could never do it

115

so we did things like for example imagine you have rows of n's m's

116

u's which are visually quite difficult to distinguish imagine a variety of rows of those

117

and then your job is to go through and circle all the ends, you'd think perhaps that would be associated with something like diligence or industriousness,

118

conscientiousness, but it's just another IQ test.

119

It's very, very hard to find a cognitive test that isn't just IQ.

120

And IQ is very easy to measure.

121

This is another thing that makes it troublesome, let's say, apart from the fact of unbelievable variation between people.

122

Like people with extreme IQs are

123

so much more productive than people with on the lower end of the scale

124

that they're not in the same universe in the sense

125

and they're certainly in the same moral universe

126

and they have the same value intrinsically and

127

and iq is not associated with morality let's say just

128

because you're smarter doesn't mean you're a better person

129

and in fact i think there's a temptation

130

that comes along with intelligence that's luciferian and that's been warned about in mythologies forever bitter intellect you know

131

The person who has been gifted by God, so to speak, with a great intellect,

132

who believes that the world should bow at their feet in consequence or presumes that they're rational, what would you say?

133

Their cogitations produce systems of value that should be imposed upon the world.

134

That's the Luciferian temptation.

135

But there's a massive difference between people at the upper end of the cognitive distribution and people at the lower end. And so...

136

And it's easy to measure.

137

It's very robust.

138

So, for example, imagine you had a library of 10 ,000 questions.

139

Questions about anything, they require abstract cognition to solve.

140

That's the only criteria.

141

Multiple choice questions, vocabulary questions, general knowledge questions, mathematical questions, spatial rotation questions, anything that requires abstract cognition.

142

Okay, so they have 10 ,000 questions extract out a random set of 100 questions, give that to 100 people,

143

sum their scores, rank order them.

144

That's IQ.

145

Now, the technical IQ test correct for age, but that's irrelevant with regards to the measurement.

146

Now, really quick, I just want to say that if you have a family or people who rely on your income,

147

there's a lot riding on you being there.

148

You're working hard to take care of them, but you also have to think about what happens if one day you're not there.

149

And that's where our partner Ethos comes in.

150

They make getting life insurance incredibly simple so you can help make sure

151

that people who depend on you are taken care of if something happens.

152

And I understand.

153

Life insurance is one of those things that's really easy to put off, especially when you're young and healthy.

154

But that's actually when you could lock in the best rates.

155

With Ethos, you can get a quote in seconds, apply in minutes, and even get same -day coverage with no medical exam required.

156

You just answer a few simple health questions.

157

And you could get up to $3 million in coverage with some policies starting as low as $30 a month.

158

Plus, even if If you have life insurance through your job, that may not actually be enough to cover your family.

159

And it almost certainly does not follow you if you leave that job.

160

So having your own policy means that you're protected no matter what.

161

Ethos has a 4 .9 out of 5 stars on Trustpilot with over 4 ,000 reviews

162

and getting started takes about 10 minutes.

163

So take 10 minutes and make sure the people who rely on you are covered.

164

165

Once again, that is ethos .com slash iced coffee.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
