yes, for me, the article illustrates why i've thought for a while that psychological science is the most dangerous of all sciences. certainly, it's stress. but to base it on iq testing? that's laughable really. imo anything based on iq or, and even more importantly, the dsm is based on what others deem socially acceptable.
and then, and then! to make it worse, retards in the media can glob on to it and spin it like the thread title.
