80% of people in the 90th percentile of attractiveness/health/childhood health/mental stability/height/intelligence are more right wing than the average person.

High quality samples (e.g. Project Talent, NLSY79/97, NLS, US Labour Dept, ABCD) typically have larger differences in intelligence between whites and blacks. A simple publication bias correction reduces the estimated IQ of African Americans to 81.5 Image Figure comes from a study @KirkegaardEmil and I are writing on race differences in intelligence within the USA. Unfortunately it's stuck in the pipeline, so I figured I would tweet out the main results.

Notable finding: there are no race differences in variance in intelligence. Image
