      Rindermann, Becker and Coyle targeted journals like Intelligence and orgs like ISIR (Linda Gottfredson is on their board). It's almost like they were purposefully trying to skew the results toward hereditarianism. I've seen the same MO with other "expert surveys" on race and IQpic.twitter.com/fe4xojS9nB

      I've never heard of "hereditarianism." Is this a fringe concept, @Steve_Sailer? I had to look it up: "school of thought that heredity plays a significant role in determining human nature and character traits." Funny. I guess another word for that would be "realityism."

      Well, have you heard of quantum chromodynamics, linguistic typology, ergodicity, or Objective collapse theories? Probably not, but this doesn't mean much about whether it is worthwhile or not. Hereditarianism is a mainstream view among researchers.

      I just wonder who came up with the label. It strikes me as a term that was coined by a leftist to belittle the traditional view that, obviously, genetics heavily influences IQ. That seems so obviously correct it's arguably pejorative to classify it as a school of thought.

      I don’t know if Francis Galton’s work is an eg of "hereditarianism." He certainly maintained that heredity plays a significant role in determining human nature and character traits. http://galton.org/hereditarian.html …pic.twitter.com/YICJLio4Kt

      Of course it is. He's the father of behavioral genetics.

          Apparently "hereditarianism" was first coined in 1906, in a slam against the eugenics movement.https://twitter.com/BadgerPundit/status/976159221820649472 …

          @CharlesMurray: "Hereditarian" was a term coined in 1906 to criticize the eugenics movement. https://twitter.com/BadgerPundit/status/976157628702318592 …. Shameful that it was then employed to criticize scholars doing honest, transparent work in an effort to improve policymaking.

          Later "hereditarianism" was employed against careful scholars such as @CharlesMurray. https://twitter.com/BadgerPundit/status/976158727899439110 …. Pretty clear, as I immediately hypothesized upon seeing the word, that it functions mostly as a way for progressives to depict as aberrant those who observe reality.

          Use of the word "hereditarian" peaks in 1994, with negative coverage of "The Bell Curve." That it's being employed to tar scholars who are making routine observations about reality is illustrated by this negative review of the book: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/1071441970190110?journalCode=gred20 …. @CharlesMurray
