This page is a list of common HBD definitions and acronyms

A

Anti-hereditarian bias: Race and IQ research and other topics are highly taboo.

C

Cold Winters Theory: Theory which explains why whites evolved a higher IQ than Africans.

D

Dysgenics: Evolutionary pressure is currently dysgenic on many traits due to low or negative selection pressures.

H

Heritability: Twin studies and other research shows the heritability of traits tends to be high.

I

Intelligence: Intelligence is measured by IQ.

J

Jews and intelligence: Jewish IQ

R

Race: A categorization of humans based on phenotype or ancestry, often corroborated with genetic clustering.
Race and intelligence: Human races differ in intelligence due to genetic differences.

S

Sex: In humans, the trait responsible for the divergence of the species into male or female gamete producers.
Sex and intelligence: There are sex differences in human intelligence.
Smart Fraction Theory: The smart fraction of a nation predicts its economic prosperity.
