Selective Migration--Again.

Kamin, Leon J.

Intelligence, v4 n2 p161-64 Apr-Jun 1980

Wolff has recently reinterpreted the data of Lee to indicate that Black migration from the south to Philadelphia had been selective in an IQ-relevant manner. However, Wolff's deduction from Lee's data is shown to depend entirely upon an assumption about cumulative IQ deficit in southern Black children. (Author/CTM)
