The 'national IQ' dataset has been used to draw conclusions about innate differences in intelligence between groups, particularly between races, and how these supposedly innate differences lead to a range of other economic, health and social outcomes.
“Yet, this dataset has been used to draw conclusions about innate differences in intelligence between groups, particularly between races, and how these supposedly innate differences lead to a range of other economic, health and social outcomes”
From ‘National IQ’ datasets do not provide accurate, unbiased or comparable measures of cognitive ability worldwide (2022) · cites this paper as Figueredo et al., 2020

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
