minus-square@Vigge93@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink62•10 months agoBut in this case it does, or at least it should, since the IQ scale is based on a normal distribution which is symmetric along the mean.
minus-squaredadarobotlink1•10 months agoBut wouldn’t a certain amount have the same ig right at the median, meaning less than half would actually be above (and also below)?
