"You're going to have a child, do you want the child to have an IQ of 145 or 65?" If intelligence didn't matter you wouldn't care, but the fact is, nobody is going to wish a child to have 65. That's the crux of the matter. I think given that question, everyone will agree, it is an important distinction.

Look up the Polgar family. You’ll understand why the concept of intelligence is ultimately stupid. When talking about intelligence, where talking about what we see as the principle of talent, which the Polgar absolutely slaughtered. People are more competent then others, no shit. Yet do we know if that’s because of their parents, teachers, adversities, sufferings, friends or coincidences. I have no clue. But ultimately, intelligence doesn’t mean anything as a whole, because the one who claims intelligence has certain criterias The example of 65 vs 120 is ludicrous, because a prescribed IQ of 65 is, no doubt, cognitive disabilities, yet a prescribed IQ of 130+ is a membership to an organization (MENSA). One being something you don’t wish to anyone and the other which is only positive.

That’s persuasive rhetoric though. That’s like saying “If strength in a man is not important to you, then you should be happy with a crippled man in a wheelchair.” The person is essentially saying that they don’t mind a man who is weaker than average, perhaps to a fair degree. To choose someone who is functionally disabled is a horse of another color. Watch out for quotes that resonate deeply. They’re usually persuasive arguments and/or rhetoric, and in many, many cases, they represent logically flawed thinking.

11 11 You need to cite sources. Don’t forget, we’re talking psychology, here. It is an incredibly in-precise soft science. Assessing psychology and sociological studies for validity is absolutely essential. Some of the most poorly conducted studies I have seen come from these fields. As for your suggestion, I seriously doubt this “hypothesis” has been properly tested. For one thing, you would have to control for differences of race and class - two majorly correlative factors in listening to rap music, and two (most likely) critical aspects in determining IQ. Even then, your results would be a poor suggestion of real science. What about controlling for city-living verses rural-living? The mother’s age when she gave birth? Rap culture in different parts of the country or on different continents? There are so many factors that could skew the data that developing a proper sample is highly impractical. That doesn’t mean that studies shouldn’t be conducted. However, any scientist would understand that the results from the studies are mere correlation, and they mean very little. Judging by your statements regarding cultural sentiment, I can make a rough assumption that what you would like to say here is that there is a decent probability that people who listen to rap music are stupid, but we just aren’t allowed to say it. That is the kind of untrained arrogance that leads to scientific studies being abused and misrepresented in the media. I hope, if you are working within this frame of mind, your education helps to raise you to a more unbiased, higher standard of analytical reasoning. Please don’t take that as offensive or patronizing, though. First off, I could have completely misunderstood your bias, and secondly, everyone is at a different point along their intellectual attainment, and it seems that you do very much value science, which I find to be a respectable attribute.

Has Peterson ever talked about the Flynn Effect: Crystalized IQ increases by 8 points every generation in almost all countries. This is almost certainly an environmental effect because evolution doesn't happen in such short time scale. Shouldn't Peterson focus more on policies that provide equal opportunity to all people so we can better those environmental effects?

Your Internet Friend saying a drug has 80% of chance to work on an individual is the same as the drug works for 80% of the people before the person tries and drug and the person’s group identity is a part of the statistical population. What is your definition of applying statistics to an individual then? If you find out a person has only an IQ of 80, you pretty much know that you should suggest him to learn and skill in order to make a living and that he is probably not up to high standard academics. You can keep you faith in him and give him another trial by sending him to college, but an IQ of 80 certainty says a lot of the person, and most of the evidence that you shouldn’t be too hard on a 80 IQ person are generated for statistics. If you say statistics cannot be applied to individuals you are saying that we should abandon all studies that are done on groups when it comes to individual treatments.

IQ has been equated to socioeconomic function through rampant factor analysis. In its current form it’s the best predictive measure of academic performance and GDP contribution, which is what it’s been tuned to, meaning the same neuroatypicalities that affect social or economic functioning disproportionately affect IQ scoring. That’s not the “truth” of intelligence, that people people with emotional or developmental barriers to engagement have less cognitive potential (in fact, very intelligent people have a higher prevalence of mental disorder). It’s just the economic reality. IQ now is basically a measure of how good you are at playing that game, and has come to ignore other facets of intelligence in favor of this predictability. I think most historical geniuses would test lower on the modern scale than a CEO, due to their social/attentive deficits and the irrelevance of most of their cognitive strengths to education.

My upbringing is partly why I always had really low consciencounes, an extremely lazy person who missed class 2 or 3 days a week but still got As and Bs. Funny thing is out of sheer boredom I read and listened to many podcasts and eventually became conscientious after formulating a logical and ambitious outlook on life. In other words their is some anictodal evidence that high IQ can eventually override low consciousnes.

hmm I seem to be similar to that. I scored an IQ of 130 and scored 0th percentile in industriousness in a personality test. My family was pretty damn dysfunctional (though I wouldn't say 'extremely', we weren't physically fighting all the time). They sent me to boarding school in a different continent when I was 15 to get rid of me basically, and I had some of the most depressing years there. I didn't do well in school except for at the end and had very few people I could relate to. Over the years though I built relations with my family back up (largely thanks to advice from Jordan Peterson) and when I finally finished school I felt so free, and my grades are now really good at university where my social life is so much better. Goes to show there's so many things that can affect you and help you. I honestly think if it weren't for Jordan Peterson I would be a lot less than I am now.

Ultimately it always gets back to IQ, which is the central Nexus & Flow from which all wellsprings originate... So much of the other attempts to supplant IQ have a left-wing agenda, obfuscatory nuanced attempts to make that which is sound, reasonable and duplicatable nebulous... If only to attempt to play the egalitarian diversity game of political correctness, a false morality

But it is not. IQ is the ability to score well on a given test created by PhD and Masters assistants to judge 'mental plasticity' and pattern recognition. The largest single predictor of a high score on an IQ test is an advanced grasp of the English language. Someone who does not have a very advanced grasp of written English will consistently underperform even if they have knowledge of multiple languages and in an academic setting have shown to advance more quickly and develop comprehension faster than peers who simply have a more advanced grasp of English. Sad but true fact of measurements...the biggest part of this video is the opening when Dr Peterson discusses how you MUST accept current IQ testing methodologies or you must discount all of psychoanalysis. That is a very telling statement for a concept that has long been known to be very unreliable at best.

@@dogie9548 I did not pull that from the back pocket. English is not the commonality, just the native language of the test in this case. A multi-cultural study throughout Europe, Asia, and North and South America showed that the SINGLE largest predictor of a high score on IQ testing was proficiency with the native language of the test as self reported. This was corroborated by having multi-lingual students take the battery in both their native language and English as the control. Test found that if a subject did not have at least a collegiate reading level in the test language their performance was effectively capped. The reasons why were not established to my knowledge but common assumptions are on the nature of how the tests themselves were devised (by PhD/Masters level review). This also correlates with some previous (somewhat controversial) studies that attempted to link lower mean IQ scores of minority populations in the USA, Africa, and South America. If the tests were in fact biased towards language proficiency it would go a long way to accounting for those study results as those results have no corroboration at all about certain racial or ethnic populations actually having lower IQs.

But it is hard to know what is in the depths - Never take your intelligence or lack of it, as granted - Hard work trumps intelligence in almost anything; but efficient and self suited goals are the best

Although, Altum, I'm gonna have to disagree with you slightly on the left-brain/right-brain dichotomy, as the language centers actually happen to be mostly on the left side.

I mean, what are you doing when you write or speak? You're combining words to form a logical statement. Is language emotional? It can be used emotionally. But is language itself emotional? It's not. When writing, the meaning behind the words and the creative way that you use the words give the text emotion. If you were creative enough, you could give math emotion. "The plane flew overhead". Was that emotional? It was not. But it was logical, it made sense. Language is logic.

The amount of information you can process at once times how quickly you process that information is intelligence.

@rysio ochódzki I'd say that depth is bandwidth, but speed is still involved. I'm saying that processing power, thus intelligence, is the coin that speed and bandwidth/depth are the heads and tails of. You can't have one without the other. Speed means nothing without any content and depth means nothing if it's static. (People treat the universe as though it's a thing, but it's more of a happening; a verb, not a noun. It's appearance as an object is an illusion, although a valid aspect. It's a stream or a feed, like streaming media. Our perception is like sampling analog music for digital storage and reproduction. You have the sampling rate and the bit depth. The higher the resolution, the more accurate the reproduction. We all sample the world at different resolutions. Some people are low resolution and some are high resolution. Meditation is the master, but not the only, tool for increasing one's resolution.)

I think he’s spot on regarding the definition problem. One of the issues I constantly run into when discussing the idea of “life success” with friends is what does that mean? Often one of us is talking about financial success while the other is talking about happiness and another is talking about stability. I think this is why discussions of “other intelligences” have come up -though I think such terms are bad because they aren’t seeking to measure intellectual capacity or performance. People want to explore what predicts success in different areas, using different definitions of success to start with.

This really boils down to simple isometrics I think what people don’t realize is that the socio economic pressures on the intelligence hierarchy is flawed at best. So if we collectively have a proclivity towards corruption of the basic fundamental principles underlying the hierarchy then the whole substructure is corrupt to begin with As professor Peterson has said this is basic arithematic. What he fails to see or demonstrate is that this problem can’t be solved within the hierarchy because the whole system is corrupt. What’s needed is criticism or constructive criticism from beyond the hierarchy. Would you want your defense to be judge and jury at a judicial hearing? I think not.

@rysio ochódzki I think your over simplifying it. It's obviously a valuable vector to measure intelligence to a certain extent. See what I believe the best way to find your IQ is take as many tests as possible then average your score. The value I think these tests have is they let you know kind of jobs you would most likely be good at so you don't waste time and energy on a career your most likely not going to be optimal at. It's like a physical assessment. If your 5'8" you probably won't make it to the NBA, but does that mean you absolutely can't? No. Does it mean you would probably be better at something else, yes. We need people of all different intelligence levels or we couldn't have cooks, janitors, welders, computer programers, CEO's, brain surgeons. Imagine a janitor trying to be a brain surgeon or vise versa. Obviously intelligence matters for what job you're fit for.

@rysio ochódzki it isn't hypocrisy. So are you assuming no women like short men? Are you saying being short doesn't have it's advantages? Are you ignorant to the fact some women like having a man who isn't handsome because they have low self esteem and like the idea that they won't be bombarded by women trying to steal him away? Everybody has advantages and disadvantages. Intelligence is only one quality and has its own disadvantages. Imagine being Einstein, how challenging it must have been for him to deal with people of much lower intelligence. Or how lonely it must have been having barely anybody who could relate to his life experience. Some of the least intelligent people I know are some of the happiest, because their lives are simple. Less stress of the complexity that you have the burdon of dealing with on a regular basis.

If you want to bring bullshit biology into it, people subconsciously feel the need to fit in and when you are more intelligent than 99.9% of people on earth you simply don't. You enjoy complexity while most people loath it. You can't stand oversimplification and that's what the majority operates on. I'm miserable having to work around the people I work around who are obviously of lower intelligence than myself, is that just being annoyed because you say so? Do you believe I can't tell the difference? In 37 years I'm pretty sure I can separate the two. You are miserable too. People don't isolate their selves because they are well adjusted and accepted by their peers. Also the more intelligent people are the more nuanced they are which makes it harder to find people like you even if they are as intelligent. Your obviously intelligent but I still have vastly different views than you. But I'm sure you're used to that.

That's a great point, and I agree with a lot of that. However I think the issue that Dr. Peterson brings up also states that intelligence, or IQ, is a static trait that cannot be improved upon substantially. Yes, there are ways to increase competency of completing specific tasks which require a high level of intelligence, but this effect does not sustain itself across different domains, or the ability to learn across different domains. Because of that discrepancy, it becomes exponentially more difficult for someone with a lower IQ to get ahead in life.

I just don't get his views on intelligence. I've listened to Peterson on this topic numerous times and I am not wrapping my mind around his limiting intelligence to IQ and the traditional model of language and logic. As a teacher of cello for over 30 years and a professor of cello for 20, teaching all age groups, I can say without any hesitation that those with high academic intelligence (high IQ, high SAT scores, etc.) are not necessarily quick at or show mental horsepower for 1) conceptually mapping out the finger board, 2) reading rhythms, 3) hearing pitch, 4) hearing a tone or timbre and translating that to Kinesthetic movement, 5) catching on to musical ideas, 6) listening to those around them to fit into a musical ensemble, and 7) doing all of the above in one grand gestalt. To say music is only a "talent" and doesn't require an some sort of mental "horsepower" seems completely naive to me and would only be uttered by someone who can't do it or hasn't tried. I love his views on postmodernism but his views on intelligence...well, agree to disagree...strongly.

I don't necessarily agree with everything Peterson has to say but I admire his courage to speak up for controversial truths, and I must say this speech hits home. Perhaps I am a victim of cognitive dissonance as a 99th percentile american student with high IQ, perhaps I simply want to believe in IQ because it makes me feel good about myself, but frankly the evidence of IQ is undeniable. I've always seen these "other intelligence" like "social intelligence, emotional intelligence" etc. as mere excuses to placate those who are average or below. It's like the "growth mindset" that today's teachers continue to push, I suppose. The growth mindset vs fixed mindset idea insinuates that it is a good thing to believe anyone can do anything, and that it is bad to believe in personal limits such as genetic intelligence. It's preposterous, and for it I fear far too many of my generation will grow up to pursue careers they cannot hope to keep up with. I believe in growth mindset to the extent that few people have reached their personal limits, and that concentrated effort will lead most people to immense growth, intellectual or otherwise, but I do not believe everyone is inherently equal in the ability to learn. That idea is dangerous and it will come back to hurt our society.

Measuring someone's IQ to forecast a future pattern, successes or failures just doesn't cut it for me. Many more things have to be taken into consideration. The real solution to success and self fulfilment is dedication, motivation and hardwork, across all walks of life and in all levels of IQ scores.

Intelligence has a base of how quickly you learn and how strong your memory is. After that, it depends upon what you learn. You can learn things that are untrue which destroy your ability to learn further and leave you less intelligent than where you started. Probably the biggest offender that I have seen is learning that "rugged individualism" is a good character trait. If an intelligent person "learns" that, it can destroy their ability to learn further. Nobody can do this life alone. Successful people tend to learn a shared dependency of a group because its better to focus on new problems than "reinventing the wheel" by doing everything themselves. One common trait I see from people in poverty is they insist on doing everything for themselves but that means, even if someone is very very intelligent, they will run into pitfalls and major mistakes that could have been avoided if they worked with a group.

I guess you are either uninformed about what emotional intelligence is supposed to mean or you are just joking despite knowing about the topic matter. I don't believe in emotional intelligence but apparently its supposed to mean that they have better emotional awareness, they can read emotional cues better, body language better and that they are more empathetic than those with less emotional intelligence. I do believe there might be some weight in it because frankly I know some extremely intelligent people who seem to have a complete disregard for other peoples feelings, not doing so on purpose but unknowingly saying harmful things in which they believe shouldn't be an issue because its logical and rational like at one time hearing one person saying their loved one is in a better place after passing away but the person responds that place doesn't exist (in their eyes its a logical response but it isn't an appropiate time to discuss that). Because they rationalize everything and fail to grasp the effect those actions/words would have an effect on others. However I also know intelligent people who are also caring and very empathetic who understand how to read others & know the weight of their actions accordingly. So I don't believe its the case of smart people are less caring and dumb people are these group that are so loving/nice/caring etc. I'm not sure how you could possibly quantify emotional intelligence. But then again we measured intelligence. So I guess a test with questions where a test user selects from a multiple choice from assigned scenarios could work. Kind of the trolley problem type of question (but with a bit less moral ambiguity).

Statistics are important, but this speech has three problems: 1. Accepts as an axiom that performance is related with intelligence. I believe that is an opinion. For example, university is not only one. In careers as art the requirements to "success" are totally different than careers as engineer. 2. Denies the role of intelligence in successful social interactions. Isn't about personality in most of the cases. It's about take a series of logical and rational decisions to deal with a ton of complex input. 3. It's undeniable the relevance and utility of statistics in the current world. The problem is to understand a whole cognitive process from finite measured data, that is located historically in an specific moment and place. This approach takes us back to the pre-cognitive period. As an educator I can assure that intelligence doesn't work like this, and IQ is just a number that may show the abilities of a person to deal with specific problems. Without count that take pure evidence is almost impossible. Where is the pro Lem of the assessment?

That explains why there's such a high correlation between IQ and academic performance: it was made that way. That being said, I think the "job success" criteria is where it all falls apart. Take Einstein, for example. His name is now synonymous to intelligence, and for good reason. You would think such a man would have the highest IQ possible, right? Unfortunately, that's not the case. As a matter of fact, there are many people today with similarly high scores. But I can guarantee you that the vast majority of them will not have the same level of "success" as Albert did. There is something else that is entirely immeasurable, yet deeply linked with intelligence. That is why IQ will never be a true reflection of a person's ability, but it will tell you how good you are at IQ tests.

Then how do you explain that so many people with an IQ higher than 125 are unemployed or severely underemployed? All people I know with an IQ higher than 125 are quite unhappy and deal poorly with others which makes it hard for them too keep jobs. Those who keep the same job for more than 1 year are on the minimum wage. On the other hand, all people I know who work in management are very polite, have a subtle smile on their face and from the second they see you the first time, they act as if you know each other for years. They also lie without blinking instead of giving you bad news and after the truth is unveiled they act surprised by your indignation. I think machiavelianism surpassed IQ as a metric for success.

It's controversial I think because with IQ you can put a number people's intelligence that can be compared to other people's IQ. Due to how big a role intelligence plays in success in life and usefulness to other people a large part of a person's value to other people depends on his or her intelligence because it is closely correlated with ability. With higher IQ you will become better educated and get a higher paying job that helps more people. People aren't equal. That means that some people generally are inferior to other people and that is possibly the most controversial topic of any topic.

One who is a farmer is nuch smarter then a computet scientist if they were both trapped in the middle of nowhere.... in the days of antiquity astronomy was regarded as one of the most important sciences so people who map the sky were alot smarter then just math. And to a greek philosophy was a much valued study then or things we would consider science today

@@Smullet90 The acceptance rate is rather high especially when you compare it to US top schools but I think that's because they accept everyone who meet their standards academically (which are just as high as US top schools) unlike top schools in the US who require you to meet high academic standards AND have insane extracurriculars. If US schools didn't take into account extracurriculars, they'd probably have a similarly high acceptance rate

What Jordan Peterson is trying to say is people are NOT created equal. Some people are born smart, and some people are just not. It doesn't make one person BETTER than another, but it absolutely means that there are things that some people just can't accomplish.

The first 2 minutes and 15 seconds is so damn good to hear. When you first lay down and accept your disbelief to suspend it for a moment, you may enter the realm of places, of things that do not yet exist. For those things we have not made, and do not have, there is space left to make them. For that is a key part of imagination. But to separate imagination from reality is even more key, and this is done for however long-or-brief a moment but, it's necessity is followed-through nonetheless. A key moment for any good argument to be sure.
