Email: emil@emilkirkegaard.dk Abstract I reanalyze data reported by Richard Lynn in a 1979 paper concerning IQ and socioeconomic variables in 12 regions of the United Kingdom as well as Ireland. I find a substantial S factor across regions (66% of variance with MinRes extraction). I produce new best estimates of the G scores of the regions. The correlation of these with the S scores is .79. The MCV correlation with reversal is .47.
