You may find it helpful while reading or editing articles to look at a bibliography of Intelligence Citations, posted for the use of all Wikipedians who have occasion to edit articles on human intelligence and related issues. I happen to have circulating access to a huge academic research library at a university with an active research program in these issues (and to another library that is one of the ten largest public library systems in the United States) and have been researching these issues since 1989. You are welcome to use these citations for your own research. You can help other Wikipedians by suggesting new sources through comments on that page. It will be extremely helpful for articles on human intelligence to edit them according to the Wikipedia standards for reliable sources for medicine-related articles, as it is important to get these issues as well verified as possible. -- WeijiBaikeBianji (talk, how I edit) 02:22, 25 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Merger proposal

edit

I propose merging Borderline mental retardation into this article, because both articles are about the same issue. This one is a bit bigger and its name is better (the term mental retardation is no longer seen as neutral). Please comment! Lova Falk talk 09:43, 9 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Thank you! I'll do it. Lova Falk talk 08:48, 15 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Mentioning socio economic status being often “unachieved” by those with borderline functioning.

edit

This article mentions that borderline people might only achieve low socioeconomic status. I want to say that there should be mention of this negatively effecting oppressed people with the disorder. Also there should be a mention of how DSM is not that credible of a source when it comes to understanding personalities. And I would say this second part should be done for all DSM entries on wiki, because of the history of “the field” of Mental Health, related to institutional racism and it’s egregious effects on people oppressed identities. Ex. Transgenderism being classified as a disorder and problem. Practicing religion that aligns with your sense of people hood as an indigenous person being illegal in the US until the 1970s, and the mass indoctrination of BIPOC into psychiatric facilities and prisons for schizophrenia.

According to wiki’s article on IQ classification borderline mental retardation is 70-79 and doesn’t include the low 80s. I think this article has that wrong.Bjoh249 (talk) 20:44, 8 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Intelligence

Can it even be measured or understood completely? BeepBoopRobot (talk) 05:56, 4 November 2021 (UTC)Reply
