Why is Steve Sailer doing significantly better than Anatoly Karlin on here?
Why are you saying it is "significantly"? There's no error bars.
I meant that Sailer's score here is noticeably higher than Karlin's.
Yes, and I ask, indirectly, what makes you think this isn't just chance variation? There are no error bars.
Oh, you mean there's the possibility that Steve Sailer might have simply gotten more lucky in regards to this by talking less about IQ than Anatoly Karlin has?
Oh; OK. So, basically, it's very similar to the margin of error which is used in pre-election polls, correct?
Statistical uncertainty, standard error, margin of error, etc. call it what you will. If you see a party go up 2% in a poll, do you offer explanations? No, you check whether it's likely just a random fluke first. Same with these data.
