Can race and culture affect an IQ score?

Answer 1

Well in California you are not allowed to give an I.Q. test to African Americans because the African Americans claim it is racially biased. All the other states in the Union allow it. I think not being able to give them an I.Q. test is poppy cock. Most I.Q. tests are normed so as to be culturally and racially fair. I agree.

Answer 2

IQ scores can be influenced by a variety of factors, including cultural bias in test design, access to education, and socio-economic background. It is important to recognize that intelligence is complex and cannot be solely determined by race or culture. Differences in IQ scores among racial or cultural groups are often due to social and environmental factors rather than inherent differences in intelligence.
