@CapitalismL @RussianBot88 @StefanMolyneux Four even when significant results are found, effects are really lame, for example using educational attrition as an IQ proxy, in the biggest GWAS study to the date, at most 11% explained https://t.co/t3nuUEYgN8
@stianchrister @clairlemon @nntaleb @Quillette Hey buddy, you are out of date, recent GWAS papers on genetics of cognitive ability and other traits have huge n's. E.g. see JJ Lee et al famous 2018 paper on genes involved in educational attainment, n = 1.
No se será un sesgo algoritmico, pro parece haber un resurgimiento de genética y biología social, en lógica de "Nature First", pero algunos omiten casualmente que justamente cuando usamos los genes para estimar fenomenos sociales, efectos son marginales h

Sorry guys, no special X chromosome magic in GWASs. https://t.co/IO7th4vxOv https://t.co/TLJYBBbimE
@UnsilencedSci @charlesmurray Nah. GWASs that included X so far have found it to be less important relative to size than autosomes. https://t.co/IO7th4vxOv https://t.co/c0EiRbzQMr
@BakerFlan @Rongwrong_ @DialecticalA Yes. Table 13 of Lee et al.https://t.co/oxW86ek478 top 226 SNPs for cognitive ability have mean absolute effect size of 0.02 and only 30 are over 0.03. Those SNPs alone explain hardly any variance (~2% or less normally)

@AndrewYang Behavior genetics is really interesting stuff. Educational attainment also turns out to be partially linked to genes. https://t.co/MLzkw4RknN Very relevant to how we think of equality of opportunity!
