Race Differences and Type II Errors: A Comment on Borkowski and Krause.

Jensen, Arthur R.

Intelligence, v9 n1 p33-39 Mar 1985

Borkowski and Krause (1983) concluded that the locus of black-white intelligence differences lies in metaprocesses not elementary cognitive processes. However, some variables were difference scores with unacceptably low reliability. Magnitude comparisons of racial differences give a different picture of results; comparable differences in measures of both types of processes. (Author/RD)
