Africa - What is your IQ?

how about getting out this tape measure?

seems like it's the trend these days to compare every possible statistic that has little to do with bicycling.

Or maybe it does.

Only because I took one recently.

148

I like DQ.

Foooooo

I also think that IQ does not measure intelligence. It only measures your problem solving skills more or less.

110.

However, I started doing intervals 3 times a week to increase my average IQ.

It varies from sub-forum to sub-forum.

What's an IQ?

Is that like Q-factor?

What's an IQ?

Interval Quotient

It varies from sub-forum to sub-forum.

Hahahahaha!

I don't know because Mother always told me that IQ is not a good measurement of a person's true worth. So I'm thinking it must be pretty darn high.

i love DQ. chocolate explosion Blizzard RULES! later.

Not high enough to stay out of BF forums.....just sayen....

My mom says I'm smart.

"That's not what your mother told me, Trebek!"

It was so nice the other night that the lady and I walked down the street to DQ. I only had $2 on me and didn't want to bust out the debit card. Luckily a cone with some crunchy stuff on it came out to exactly $2. Bonus!

On second thought, let's leave my mother out of this.

I think you brought her into this.

Not smart enough to avoid posting here

Where are you getting your iq scores from? I don't think those online tests count.

What about....what BF'er can take the biggest dump? (No pics, please).

That has more to do with cycling that some of the other pissing contests posted here.

You'd have to be pretty stupid to post your IQ on here. Hence anyone claiming a high number is lying.

I would hope most are coming from a professionally administered psych test. They're actually pretty fun.

My mum wouldn't tell me.

Yeah, some son I turned out to be--dragging her into the 41.

Exactly.

And the ones not posting it, might be ashamed of how low it is. Conclusion: Everybody is stupid.

What is an average IQ?

What is an average IQ?
By definition, it's 100

I think that is the mean.

Exactly.

No, self-selection bias.

None of the accumulated data provided from posters on a forum will have any integrity.

Does that answer your question?

Pre-BF or post-BF?

What's an IQ?

The same as in town.

I think that is the mean.

I think that's considered average. Below 100 is less than average, above is above average. I'm pretty certain that 100 is the baseline...it's all fairly arbitrary.

outliers on the chart could cause the mean and the average to diverge.

Any MENSA folks here?

Well, this is the internet, so 192.

130 mm

It's a secret society. Anyone in it can't tell you, so anyone who tells you is not in it :D

edit: I'm in it :D

They design the test around a 100 point baseline. Whether or not it's actually the average, or mean for that matter, isn't the point.

incorrect.

I suggest you look up standard deviation and normal distribution.

And you are a scratch golfer?

We're sort of speaking about different things. I know what a normal distribution is, what I'm saying is that when they design the test (and it's redesigned frequently as IQ tends to collectively change over time) they do so in a way that they hope the mean, mode and average is 100. If you score 100 you are considered exactly normal, no more, no less.

The test doesn't look at other results to make the comparison, that's something we do. The test is flawed and so realistically the mean, mode and average are likely to be different from 100.

Is that standard or metric?

my iq is around 80, but I think about everything twice, so I am gonna answer 160

Not really

Already nailed

Much closer

Being an ESE teacher I have a little practical experience. The Stanford test is set up with 100 as the baseline measure for "normal intelligence." "Normal intelligence" is considered to be any number within 2 standard deviations of 100 and the SD=15. Therefore normal intelligence is considered to be within the IQ range of 70 to 130. Above that school kids start getting recommended for Gifted programs. Below that, until recently they were considered to fall within a range of mental handicaps and before that they were labeled ********. Some psychologists still use terms like ******** but schools no longer do.

The Stanford is widely considered outdated and the current version of the WISC is preferred. Also, IQ can be assessed through performance as well. It is not an indicator of academic success.

Of course I'm contributing to a thread I should move to Foo so my performance IQ must be pretty low. :rolleyes:

Standard deviation in the 41 is pretty high.

Potato.
