Får man like gode muligheter ved å gå indøk NMBU eller UiA som NTNU?

I mitt første svar til remmington argumenterte jeg blant annet for at personlighet var en variabel som er tilnærmet like viktig som IQ, og at han la for mye vekt på det. I mitt første svar til deg argumenterte jeg for at statistisk sett har nok de på NTNU høyere IQ, som er en viktig variabel i videre arbeid, og nok en tungtveiende faktor i hvorfor de prioriteres fremfor de som har studert andre plasser.

At du mener det er «håpløst» å fokusere på IQ og hvem som er best er nok heller irrelevant, da fakta er at bedriftene ønsker seg de som er «best», derfor tar de utgangspunkt i blant annet personlighet og evner for å finne den beste kandidaten til jobben.

Skal du få tilbud om de mest populære stillingene så må du ha både høy IQ og gunstige personlighetstrekk. Akkurat hvordan de forskjellige bedriftene vektlegger viktigheten av de to er synsing fra min side, men begge betyr nok mye.

 

Hva vet vi for eksempel om hvordan IQ og personlighetstrekk påvirker generell suksess i livet?

Psykologiprofessor Jordan Peterson (sakset fra quora): 

"IQ is a different story. It is the most well-validated concept in the social sciences, bar none. It is an excellent predictor of academic performance, creativity, ability to abstract, processing speed, learning ability and general life success.

There are other traits that are important to general success, including conscientiousness, which is an excellent predictor of grades, managerial and administrative ability, and life outcomes, on the more conservative side.

It should also be noted that IQ is five or more times as powerful a predictor as even good personality trait predictors such as conscientiousness. The true relationship between grades, for example, and IQ might be as high as r = .50 or even .60 (accounting for 25-36% of the variance in grades). Conscientiousness, however, probably tops out at around r = .30, and is more typically reported as r = .25 (say, 5 to 9% of the variance in grades). There is nothing that will provide you with a bigger advantage in life than a high IQ.  Nothing. To repeat it: NOTHING.

In fact, if you could choose to be born at the 95th percentile for wealth, or the 95th percentile for IQ, you would be more successful at age 40 as a consequence of the latter choice.

It might be objected that we cannot measure traits such as conscientiousness as well as we measure IQ, as we primarily rely on self or other-reports for the former. But no one has solved this problem. There are no "ability" tests for conscientiousness. I am speaking as someone who has tried to produce such tests for ten years, and failed (despite trying dozens of good ideas, with top students working on the problem). IQ is king. This is why academic psychologists almost never measure it. If you measure it along with your putatively "new" measure, IQ will kill your ambitions. For the career minded, this is a no go zone. So people prefer to talk about multiple intelligences and EQ, and all these things that do not exist. PERIOD"

Når det gjelder Donald Trumps IQ, som ble nevnt over her et sted, så gjør Jordan Peterson en kvalifisert synsing om den i følgende video: Jordan Peterson - Donald Trump's IQ.
