Journal Mensa Babe's Journal: Finally! The results of my experiment. 28
My work seeking the mysterious correlation between AQ (i.e. how someone is popular in the society at large) and IQ (i.e. how someone is clever, smart and intelligent) is finally completed. The results I got may surprise some of you. Here is what I have found out:
People with AQ 7 are most likely to have IQ over 150. People with AQ 11 are most likely to have IQ 175. People with AQ 16 usually have IQ in the range of 140-160, which is exactly the same range, which is the most common among people with AQ 17, however with AQ 17 about half of the people have IQ well over 150, just like all of the people with AQ 21 (the transition to the higher half of 140-160 range must be somewhere around AQ 18.5) and this trend continues up to the point of AQ 27. Then, over AQ 27 strange things happen. The AQ 28 is a usual value of former Mensa members, i.e. those people, who once used to have high IQ, which suddenly dropped below the acceptable level. Half of the people with AQ 28 however have IQ around 140 which is still acceptable in Mensa, however one would suspect a slow but noticable decreasing of IQ at this point. People with AQ 31 have IQ 179, but people with AQ 36 have strangely IQ only 170, and for AQ 39 the most common IQ semms to be 148. This is very interesting indeed. The optimal AQ seems to be exactly 31, which is the highest score one could get without being autistic. Any comments?

AQ is the Autism-Spectrum Quotient (Score:1)
AQ is the Autism-Spectrum Quotient according to psychologist Simon Baron-Cohen and his colleagues at Cambridge's Autism Research Centre. Check out The AQ Test [wired.com]. See also my older journals [slashdot.org].

I was just going to answer pointing you to my older journals [slashdot.org], which I then realised you seem to link to in your signature... Then I found out that I am the only person on your friends list... You are also a foe of Surak [slashdot.org], who happens to be my friend and fan, and has a strangely similar nick name to yours... May I ask what is going on here?

Tsk. Someone claiming intellectual superiority should know the difference between schizophrenia and Dissociative Identity Disorder (formerly Multiple Personality Disorder).
This article [spcsb.org] should clear up the misconception.

Thank you. (Score:1)
Thank you very much indeed. That is a very interesting article. The name "schizophrenia" with its Greek schisma root turns out to be terribly misleading.

In the broad spectrum of human qualities, I find that to a relatively insignificant attribute.
For your statistics, my IQ was 161 when I was tested two years ago. It's probably around 158 now, but that's based mostly on speculation. My AQ was 10.
