Average IQs across demographics?

Question

Does anybody have any accredited data for this? anything to do with average IQs across the world or between races, or gender - any characteristic that displays some link with IQ please.

Answer 1

It is nigh on to impossible to test intelligence independently of cultural experience. For example, an illiterate but highly intelligent Kalahari bushman might have little context for answering questions based on abstract symbolic reasoning skills. This phenomenon applies to some degree between any two groups - urban police officers versus rural bank tellers ...

Of course, IQ tests measure something - it is just too simplistic to say that it is "intelligence" in general. So, I'm sure that a standard IQ test would show significant differences amongst different groups. But how good would an MIT astrophysicist be at solving survival problems in the wild?

Here is a quick overview with some references. I make no claim as to its legitimacy.
