Do Differences in IQ Predict Italian North-South Differences in Income? A Methodological Critique to Lynn
Beraldo, Sergio
Intelligence, v38 n5 p456-461 Sep-Oct 2010
Lynn (2010) suggests that differences in average intelligence explain many of the differences observed across the Italian regions. This paper puts forward a methodological critique to his study, coupling it with an empirical test showing that Lynn's analysis is not sufficiently robust to support its conclusions. (Contains 2 tables.)
