in general in life, sure. But in pop gen I hope not. I think problem is that most know we have very little to say
Looks like it was from a prepublication presentation of the results at a conference; seehttp://www.unz.com/jthompson/genetics-genetic-groups-intelligence/ …

It seems that experts, on average, only think genetics account for 17% of cross national differences according to Rindermann
-
Yes, but on most ?s that's rated most important factor. See Rindermann paper, search "single countries and groups"
-
See also "The strongest rated factor across all countries...was genes-evolution (19.72%)"
-
Yes, it's the biggest *single* factor, but its still a relatively small factor. They said most variation is not due to genes
-
Seems larger for ethnic groups in West (Jews, black examples), but mostly I think there's a difference between (cont)
-
..between "Well, this doesn't explain ALL the variation" & "This is total pseudoscience and we should physically attack proponents"
-
Are you concerned about the low response rate of this survey (18%)
-
Yes, though I'm not really sure what to do about it.

(cont.) So I dont know if its true that geneticists secretly think genetic differences are very important for IQ disparities
