Hmm, it's tricky. If new IQ tests are chosen based on correlations with many existing non-IQ tests, doesn't that also make it more likely that different IQ tests will agree with each other? And do we see more agreement in practice than we'd expect apriori, given that selection process? (I have no idea and hadn't thought of this question until now, thanks!)
