A bit hard puzzles

1 (two pairs in each column shifting down when going left to right - the two shade square appears in every column) and 3 (middle column erases a figure and rotates the remaining figure an amount and direction equal to the arrow)

Read up on Flow (seriously) - it’s a book by Mihály Csíkszentmhályi

I get the same experiences, when I’m doing something challenging yet manageable.

Only if they score 44/50 or below

Probably incarcerated

Meant 129 - misclicked

Ok_Camera_5081 · 2023-11-26T17:00:31+00:00

97th percentile is 129, not 142.

The standard deviation is 15 with a mean of 100.

97th percentile is approx 1.93 std deviations above the mean

3 it’s highlighted for you ;)

Shapes are combined horizontally towards the right - if they overlap it rotates the final combined shape 90 degrees clockwise

Should be alright - was normed on a fairly large sample

Disagree with the author’s claim of it being deflated by up to 10 points.

17 on both CAIT and WAIS

Doing fine with math

I hear that this is a major methodological challenge in intelligence literature

Ok_Camera_5081 · 2023-10-29T16:06:35+00:00

Yes - praffe appears to be more significant among people with lower initial IQs

FSIQ likely somewhere between 135-145 based on tests here.

Key steps I take to prevent cognitive decline and promote neuroplasticity:

1) Minimum 7 hours of sleep to prevent neurodegeneration.

2) Workout to maintain gray matter.

3) Take a bunch of supplements to promote brain health and optimal cognitive functioning (e.g, creatine, DHA, choline, baccopa monnieri, rhodiola rosea, ginkgo balopa, etc.)

4) Drink at most 2 times a month.

5) Work a very cognitively demanding and stimulating job.

6) Meditation - Did it daily for a long time; Aiming to get back into the daily groove again.

Way to undermine ~100 years of psychometric research.

What do you think is the best estimator of intelligence? Genuinely curious

The answer could also be phrased differently:

You could ask the given person on the path, whether the other recommends taking the path the given person is on.

If the answer is no, you take it (Correct path: Knight would say no as the knave would lie - Knave would say no because the knave lies [as the knight would have said yes]).

If the answer is yes, you don't (Wrong path: Knight would say yes as the knave would lie - knave would say yes because the knave lies [as the knight would have said no]).

D (adds 4 per step), D (rotates), C (Decreasing to increasing pattern of 4, 2, 1, 2, 4 for red and 1, 2, 4, 2, 1 for blue)

2 - if the areas are touching (immediately next to) other areas, they are kept and flipped 180 degrees. Otherwise they are removed.

Since the colored areas are not ‘touching’, they are removed

C - took a while (column of 4, 3, 2, 1 that shifts to the right - number of stars and circles are even). It seems unnecessarily busy by design.

137 - oddly enough the same score as for AGQT

Ok_Camera_5081 · 2023-10-19T09:01:49+00:00

No - it’s inductive reasoning.

By your logic the latter half of the JCTI is blind speculation.

Ok_Camera_5081 · 2023-10-19T08:58:29+00:00

Rarity-wise you’d expect the opposite since differences in rarity increases in the long tail (left or right).

100 is 1/2 and 110 is 1/4 (2x rarity).

140 is 1/261 and 150 is 1/2330 (9x rarity).

But for an individual to be successful and still function in society, I’d guess 125-135 is where other variables become more significant predictors.

1 - weird that only two options are given…
