Summary/Abstract: Repeated analysis of IQ distribution, this time conducted on the sample of subjects with over-average intelligence, showed that IQ distribution, conducted by base summarizing of results in tests of efficiency of perceptive, serial and parallel processors applied on accidental sample of 160 subjects of both gender, aged from 19 to 21 years, whose IQ was higher than 100, and further tetramodale if IQ is taken from results of tests transformed in discreet mirror image form. As IQ distribution taken from standardised, but not normalized results of those tests, was not even approximately normal, this result is harmonized with hypothesis that normal distribution of variables, by which is operationalized the construct of coefficient of intelligence under linear model, is consequence of cumulative effects of unsystematized factors, and is not consequence of real distribution of intelligence in any segment of human population.
