7 Big Problems with IQ Tests (That No One Talks About)

We take a critical look at some of the biggest problems with IQ testing: from statistical circularity and cultural bias, to inflated correlations and ethical misuse. Drawing on emerging research, historical controversies, and new theoretical frameworks, we explore 7 major critiques of intelligence measurement today (and a 'BONUS' at the end). 💡 Along the way, we cover: • Why many IQ tests may be measuring what they define • The rise of network models and alternatives to Spearman’s g • The shrinking correlations between IQ and life outcomes • How culture, history, and social context shape IQ scores • Why intelligence isn’t fixed and what this means for testing • Messick’s Law and the ethical consequences of testing • And whether practicing IQ tests invalidates them (spoiler: not quite!) If you’ve ever wondered whether IQ tests are valid, reliable, or even meaningful, this video will interest you. ⏱️ Chapters: 00:00 – Intro: What’s Wrong with IQ Testing? 01:45 – Problem 1.
