Race matters too.
How does race matter?
In the U.S., blacks score about 1 standard deviation below whites on IQ tests.
Interesting that this does not apply to immigrant Nigerians as a group, for instance, which to me suggests that this deviation has little to do with race and more to do with low income and culture.
