Psychology and Intelligence

"I think the more something is genetic the more likely it is we can change it for the good."

"16% of the population has an IQ of 85 or lower"

"If you think of all the different mental abilities, and you devise a test for each one of them. And you gave this test to a lot of  people across a range of ability, what you'll find is the scores on all those tests are positively correlated with each other, suggesting that all tests of mental ability have something in common: the g factor or general ability to reason."

It seems weird to me that people wholly embrace the idea of influencing IQ through environmental factors, but there's a taboo against influencing it directly. If you found out your child is going to have an IQ of 85, and you could change it with a pill, wouldn't you?
