But new studies ve “beyond reasonable doubt he made the whole thing up. Burt s classic paper, “Intelligence Social Mobility,” was frequently d by white supremacists as |roof’ that whites inherently are re intelligent than blacks. In ilic appearances, Burt, himself. Id that the Jews and the Irish re less intelligent than the iglish and that slum children were intally inferior to children of the iper classes. He also contended that men were larter than women, but it was his instakingly prepared set of IQ ta- is showing common laborers at | : bottom end of the spectrum and assertion that heredity deter- ned their place in that position /OUfS >t won acclaim. |r The September issue of Science igazine cites the work of two pro- ffiCG, psors who have been studing "irt’j controversial findings and eluded that the eminent psy- logist fabricated his figures. ^ Prof Leon Kamin of Princeton Ull 'iversity was one of the first to spect figures cited in published Mill' P° rts by Burt, who died in 1971 , er rising to the heights of his field I OVw becoming the first psychologist erto be knighted. According to the magazine, r a imin said that in 1976, Burt’s II issic paper, “Intelligence and So il il Mobility,” contained several I utremely improbable statistics.” Further digging by Prof. D.D. srfman of the University of Iowa rned up evidence that figures irt allegedly had obtained from IQ -u its actually given were identical l/C' 4 figures published more than 30 ars earlier and based on another rvey. Dorfman also proved that Burt Mned the IQ figures he claimed aved the intellectual superiority upper classes, not through IQ its, but by selecting evenly dis- M’s Kl r |ibute points on a bell-shaped . tve, which he called “a curve of Ifl™)' rmal distribution.” Row and col- in tables were then concocted toi the figures and passed off as ta actually derived from tests. Science magazine concludes: hese findings show, beyond any asonable doubt, Burt fixed the w and column totals of the tables his highly acclaimed 1961 study.” The magazine noted the irony of fabrication by Burt who “was a adly critic of other people’s work len this departed in any way from e highest standards of accuracy logical consistency. He could ir to ribbons anything shoddy or consistent. ” 7:30 9:30 0 h-'!-' SGT.
