Subject: RE: BS: Racism of top scientist?
My quotes were all from the article by Gottfredsonwhich is linked on that post. The article is complete, thanks to the University of Toronto website.
The journal "American Scientist" is published weekly by the American Association for the Advancement of Science and contains a lead article on advances in a particular field, written by a leading investigator, short reports by scientific teams and individuals on their ongoing research, etc.The short papers are followed up by the authors in their full publications.

The study of intelligence and society, using the g factor, the various tests falling under the tag IQ and intelligence factors, and, increasingly, electrophysiological and other physical tests, is a rapidly growing field of study.
The general factor, g, which emerges from analysis of mental ability tests, is now used as the working definition of intelligence by most intelligence experts.
