According to the reading, what controversial connection does herrnstein and murray’s 1994 publication the bell curve make between iq and poverty and schooling and parenting?

These intentions notwithstanding, most critics found many of the topics and conclusions in the book unpalatable. The Bell Curve was instantly controversial. One of the greatly debated theories put forth by the authors in this book involved how intelligence quotient (IQ) was related to poverty, educational achievement, and parenting. Herrnstein and Murray described American society as a pyramid. A high-IQ minority sat at the top, above a much larger, low-IQ base. Variation in IQ can be represented using a bell curve. Roughly 68 percent of all people score within 15 points of the mean (a perfectly average IQ of 100). Another 15 percent scored within 15 points of that standard deviation, with the remainder lower or higher.

According to The Bell Curve, nature superseded nurture as a contributor to intelligence. A high IQ was associated with lower risks of crime, incarceration, divorce, poverty, unemployment, and school dropout rate. It presented data to support claims that those with low IQ scores are more likely to drop out before completing high school. They are also less likely to earn a college degree and more likely to have children whom they cannot financially support on their own. More specifically, Herrnstein and Murray saw increased instances of low birth weight, poor motor skills, and poor social development among children with low-IQ parents.
