> Dude, you are spewing out random things as if they are fact. Yet you lack an understanding of what IQ is.
In my previous career, I did quite a bit of research on IQ. I’m pretty sure I have a decent understanding of what it is.
If you take out your straw-mans and overstatements of what I said, then I think you will be able to find research that supports everything I said above about IQ approximately to the degree of confidence that I stated it.
> Let’s make it easy - please cite the research that shows that an IQ gap of 20+ leads to worse leadership results.
Iirc, Greatness: Who Makes History and Why cites some research on this very topic.
There is more to be found — I’m sure you can find it if you try yourself or ask a librarian at a good academic library.
I will also add that you have conveniently ignored the fact that I prefaced that specific section with “imho”. It’s my opinion, and I stated all of those comments as such because I don’t think that there is any unassailable research in this area. There probably won’t be due to the difficulty of structuring a good and replicable study regarding IQ and IQ deltas specifically.
While the overall research is not air tight, there is research that I have done (unfortunately proprietary) that indicates that the “20 IQ point difference” concept is directionally correct (“directionally” because we had to use IQ proxies). Implementing this in organizational restructuring led to consistent measurable improvements at the extremes (which was our focus).
Given your challenging tone and style of engagement, I’m guessing that you’re hellbent on flaming. I’m not interested. As such, I will leave you to your library and librarian to find research that supports the ideas I have stated (assuming you bother to look).
“Leadership and IQ delta” a super interesting topic, but the current trends in psych research and psych funding unfortunately don’t really focus on these areas despite demand from outside of academia (it’s very political in an uninteresting way).
The reality is that it’s very difficult to come by any research that shows that higher IQ leads to worse outcome (which your delta hypothesis claims).
We also know that iq correlated over 0.95 between same person taking the test on a different day, so any claim around daily fluctuation is exaggerated except for outlier cases. Your claims paint a different picture.
