P. Sample 16) African American individuals (ages 18 – 65) with different levels of general cognitive ability as assessed by the Shipley Institute of Living scale. Eleven pools were constructed with DNA from 16 individuals each (34% female, average age 31.8). Mean estimated “IQ” scores ranged from 79.1 to 112.3 for the individuals represented in these DNA pools.
