    Does anyone have figures in regards to obesity and g? Chris Brand's site has a new article on his bolg that
    mentions that their is a negative corelation, but doesn't have the figure. That doesn't surprise me, but what
    surprise me, is if the corelation was higher that .30.

    Duende - I was under the impression that most, if not all of the studies looking into the matter indicate that IQ is positively correlated with taller people. A study came out last year that found that CEO's and corporate presidents were taller than the average white european male.

    There was a study within the past year or two( someone on this blog may know who it was done by), that indicated that northern europeans, particularly Swedes(if I can remember correctly), were decreasing in height for the past 10 000 years until very recently when they started to have an increase in height from better nutrition.

    According to the stats given here: http://members.shaw.ca/delajara/oldSATIQ.html there's about a 1 SD difference in IQ between a score of 1200 and 1300 on the SAT.
