I think I've read though that IQ tests are designed such that the result is a Gaussian...
p.s. that black/white distribution is such a crass thing. It has to be wrong in some sense, or cultural, there just are no such
systematic genetic differences in intellect, every geneticist will tell you that the variation between individuals of each group is so
much larger than the genetic differences between groups, and what these graphs show is a more than 1 sigma difference...
Indeed... if they are made to be gaussian, then half the people will be below the average.
Concerning the differences between genders or races, or whatever... I didn't make the graphs, actually, each image is a link to where I found them, so you can go there and check their results. I put them up as illustration of the gaussian nature of the distribution of human IQ.
