I'm one of those 6 inch guys when it comes to IQ. My results on the test were:
-1
-1.49
I don't think that many of those questions are the "yes or no" variety. I scratched my head a lot.
I do not agree with my score.

Wow you are all uber-smart. Me, I guessed on EVERY question and got a 110.

i did it again and gueesd 'a' on every questoin and got a 82.

EDIT: And btw, who are some of you kidding. Socres approaching 160....please

The wording of some questions presuppose the outcome and make it impossible for some to answer. For example, on page 6 the question "It's fine for society to be open about sex, but these days it's going too far" can be broken into two statements. If you disagree with the first part, you might answer "strongly disagree". That answer will be interpreted as the exact opposite of what the tester intended, though. There were a number of these type of questions.

Since the Political compass gives historical names as reference points, I have provided a URL where one can match up the IQ scores with famous people:

I don't want to jack this thread, but be aware that this IQ test is BS. There are questions in there that tailor specifically to anglo-american knowledge... In essence, fill-in-the-blanks for quotes that usually only white people would be exposed to. That in itself invalidates this "great" test designed by *oooooh* Ph.Ds.

Furthermore, I hope you're not doing this for a project because any survey where the sample you draw from is voluntary and not controlled (like this one) is completely bogus. If you're just doing it for your own amusement however...

IQ according to emode: Something between 140 and 150 (I don't recall... I took it a while ago)
IQ according to actual IQ test: 140something again. Again, I can't remember the real number, but it was around 146.

And just for the record, I think that political affiliation test was a *little* biased towards making you a liberal (Questions like "Do you support a woman's right to choose or are you a filthy mongrel?" [/SLIGHT EXAGGERATION])

However, I have also noticed a trend towards liberalism on the TFP. Despite the wide range of opinions, I simply notice *more* liberals agreeing with each other than conservatives arguing with them. So the general results we're seeing don't seem too far off.

I dunno.

IQ(from elementary school): Topped out the scale(164) on the first test, never took the second test for higher IQs, so could be 200, probably 165.

(-8.12, -7.33)

with an emode IQ of 149

which I believe to be grossly inaccurate as they told me I had great math skills which is patently not true.

I think I just got 10 math questions I knew the answer to; I may have missed the next 10 if there were 20 of them.

Not that this is in any way measurable, but I think you're going to see all the scores inflated, whether as a result of deficiencies in the emode test or deficiencies in people’s honesty (particularly if one side seems to be coming off worse).

However, as a longtime lurker, newbie poster I would just like to say I am pleasantly surprised at the number of fellow lefties that I see displayed here. (Unless you’re all lying about that too as a result of Bush induced embarrassment).

Well john Henry...I think the real question here is if you are a "steel drivin man", or a "graph plotter". Apparently you started this mess in September 2003, and except for the few posts today, it effectively ended in June 2004. You have about 100 responses, valid or not, but where the shit is our promised graph? We all took the silly test, and apparently some of us put a great deal of thought into coming up with a suitable IQ...but what we want are GRAPHS!

For the record and so you don't think i'm just fucking with you, I am 5.38 / 2.05 121 IQ, and thats gotta be the truth...nobody would make one up that low.

IQ on emode came out at 140 - while that is flattering and possible, I've generally tested around the 130 mark. I think I'm smart but not a genius - which 140 is usually categorized as.

I'm also a Visionary Philosopher!

I then did the test again and deliberately got every answer wrong and scored a 75!

Here's an intersting thing to study... throw income into the mix. Are geniuses wealthier than non-geniuses? IS the opposite true because geniuses have realized how unimportant material posessions are?

IQ 127 I find it odd everyone in here is smarter than me when my IQ is suposed to place me in the top 10 - 15%.

The top 10% (assuming we're just talking US) is 30 million people. Plenty of space for people in that top bracket here.

True and mabie all TFPers fall into that group, but I think the breakdown is probably a little different than is represented here. Not saying anyone is fibbing, more that those online tests arn't real acurate.

VTBrian: Its true that those online tests are not very accurate but you shouldnt be surprised because they are online and are hosted on websites made for entertainment. I have not seen any one of those tests list a reliability or validity coefficient which is the standard for any true IQ test. Still, even if you take into account the inaccuracy of those tests, you should realize that people are fibbing about their scores. I am not calling anyone out in particular but I think anyone with a fair amount of knowledge about the bell curve and IQ tests would realize how unlikely it is for all these people on one website (without an entrance exam) to score so astronomically high. Now before everyone attacks me, I will be the first to admit that I am not a genius and I know that because I have taken a group form of the MABII (For a class but still under reasonable conditions) and a Stanford Binet (ordered by a psychologist in grade school) These two tests both indicated I fall far short of being a genius(130). I will admit that it sucks to be normal when it comes to intelligence but this thread has gotten so crazy that I had to make mention of the improbability of these results. I truly dont mean for this to be an offensive post, though I know it will be interpreted by some as a direct challenge.So, if anyone feels I am being unfair and that they deserve to be acknowledged as a genius please feel free to post a scan of your results on a major IQ test(Wais, Stanford Binet, MABII, etc). If thats asking too much feel free to post your scaled scores, VIQ, PIQ, and FSIQ along with the test you took, age you were when you took it, and reasons for taking it. By doing this, you can verify that I know what I am talking about because I will have to get ahold of the conversion charts of the test (which I will be more than willing to do). Again, I am not pointing fingers at any one person, I am just giving a heads up so that people realize how foolish this thread has become.
