International Society for Intelligence Research

The International Society for Intelligence Research is a scientific society for researchers in human intelligence. It was founded by Douglas K. Detterman of Case [Western Reserve University] in 2000.
The society advocates for ongoing support for scientific research on cognitive ability, supporting early career researchers, advocating for intelligence, student scholarships, and hosting an annual conference. A 2018 New Statesman article called two editors of Intelligence "eugenicists" and that ISIR conferences have included speakers who are part of "the infiltration of mainstream academia by eugenicists".
Until 2023, Intelligence was the journal of the society. With the advent of additional journals focussed on the topic it has become agnostic to recommending a single journal.
