  • The Standard Of Functional Literacy

    Reading and ‘Rithmetic aren’t enough. If you don’t know algorithmic reasoning (basic programming), basic cognitive science (simple model of the brain), microeconomics (incentives), and macro-political economy(equilibria), then you are functionally illiterate today.

  • IQ is a personality trait…

    IQ is a personality trait, and personality traits the result of brain structure, and brain structure the result of genetics: Ergo Big 5 + IQ = Big 6 + Sex (Amplitude of Sex Differences in Cognition) = Big 7. With Sex < Conscientiousness < IQ dominant in framing ‘higher’ (more valuable) behaviors.

    CAUSALITY (BRAIN)
    Female <-> Male
    Lateral <-> Longitudinal
    Integrated <-> Isolated

    CONSEQUENCE (OPERATION)
    Prey <-> Predator
    Peception <->Action
    Condition <-> Prediction
    Empathic <-> Analytic
    Verbal <-> Spatial

    INFORMATION – DISNFORMATION (BEHAVIOR)
    Intelligence <-> Ineptness
    Introversion <-> Extroversion
    Openness to Novelty <-> Closed to Novelty
    Conscientiousness <-> Impulsivity
    Agreeableness <-> Disagreeableness
    Emotional Stability <-> Neuroticism

  • Interesting note on psychopathy:

    Interesting note on psychopathy: the scope and definition of the term has narrowed over time. The term used generally in the past today would be anti-social behavior, with psychopathy as an extreme.

    But again, AFAIK these behaviors are all caused by:

    1) group differences in neoteny (Pedomorphism) and
    2) group differences in sex (body) gender(mind) dimorphism
    3) group differences in class size, and
    4) reinforcement by ingroup norms.
    5) because of the discount and returns on ingroup association

    In other words, our groups mature at different rates and depths, with greater.
