A Critique of Milkman’s (1978) “A Simple Exposition of Jensen’s Error”

Abstract

Milkman (1978) accuses Arthur Jensen of misapplying heritability data in speculating on the causes of racial differences in intelligence test scores. He then offers a method for illuminating Jensen’s alleged “error”. It is contended in this article thatMilkman (1978) has misconstruedJensen’s (1973) argument and that, as a consequence, his method is without point.
