>>13151147lastly. who is writing these pattern tests? what is their background pattern ancestral, cultural, and personal conditioning? how is that baked into the test they're concocting? how about the language that they speak?
and beyond this, lets use black people for example since they're always referenced in these conversations.
they came up with jazz. something mostly or entirely free-form. this is the absence of patterns.
you hear all those tech guys saying bleep blorp bloop, fluid intelligence, boop beep beep. why? this is an absence of patterns, hard coding rules, rigid language awareness. it is fluidity and improvisation without any rigid codified perspective or "holy concepts". creative and boundless. shapeless. formless. PATTERNLESS.
what matters is the opportunity for people and groups to have novel experiences. new experiences. with different groups, environments, foods, subjects, "rules", ideas, etc. etc. etc.
westerners have used rote learning, have been hard coded by law and scripture for so long. other groups are more "feeling" based, whereby they require a more elaborate sensory experience. looking at a wall of dry text is much more challenging because the background pattern conditioning is not there.
but, imo, these types of people favor very well in the experimentation and hands on spaces.
either way, it's all just conditioning and humans need more novel experiences to grow intelligence.
that's it. none of this is fixed. YOU are fixed. let go of your rules and perceive in new ways and i guarantee you can increase your "IQ". iq is a huge meme though. hell, i bet even standardizing patterns and having the undercurrent thought process of "this will validate my intelligence" will cause the user to register the patterns within a test as significant themselves thereby solidifying those pre-conditioned patterns written by the writer as significant or meaningful
