Thus, the safest route is to rely first on consensus view when outside your own area of expertise.

One person may, like Wegener, have a contrarian idea that eventually becomes accepted; but he first has to convince a majority of researchers in his field that he's right. He has to, in other words, persuade a ... consensus.<br /><br />And "consensus" is not a synonym for "unanimity." <a href="" rel="nofollow">Look it up</a>.

Rather, they are based on evolutionary context. If there are differences in IQ, they can not definitely claimed to be racial in nature, but merely contextually racial. Thus, they may one day come to look very different.

Nearly all differential psychologists may share those views, but not <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_psychology" rel="nofollow">cognitive psychologists</a>.
