"The majority of the data points were based upon convenience rather than representative samples. Some points were not even based on residents of the country. For instance, the "data point" for Suriname was based on tests given to Surinamese who had migrated to the Netherlands, and the "data point" for Ethiopia was based on the IQ scores of a highly selected group that had emigrated to Israel and, for cultural and historical reasons, was hardly representative of the Ethiopian population. The data point for Mexico was based upon a weighted averaging of the results of a study of "Native American and Mestizo children in southern Mexico" with result of a study of residents of Argentina. Upon reading the original reference, we found that the "data point" that Lynn and Vanhanen used for the lowest IQ estimate, Equatorial Guinea, was actually the mean IQ of a group of Spanish children in a home for the developmentally disabled in Spain."
And so on, and so on. Cherrypicking, the book.
Mano, la próxima vez al menos pon un enlace que no desmonte el libro en el primer párrafo.
Por eso te recomiendo que leas el libro en sí, no el artículo de wikipedia ni las reviews que en él sacan, el libro yo lo leí hace una pila de años, el artículo de wikipedia no, no me molesté, ni me medio sorprende que citen cosas que arrojen una luz desfarovable.
Ahora, que si crees que el cherrypicking los hacen los de un bando na más vas listo.
