All data I have seen seem to suggest thinking is just slightly positively correlated with IQ, but basically I think there is very little difference. About the J/P I have seen different data, but I think the article is correct, since giftedness seem to have a pretty strong correlation with perceiving, I think it must be positively correlated with IQ. But sure, I would love to see some better data on this.

Quite frankly, this research is better presented than most IQ sources I have seen.
The Author provides an incredibly long list of references, and attributes basically every stat he used to a primary, or made clear how it was derived. In addition, p-values are mentioned along with key correlations. If all IQ research accessible to the web-surfer was this good, I would be far less skeptical. (There is still the charge of the "g Factor" being an unfalsifiable entity, and that ad-hoc hypothesizing is what keeps the notion alive, by constantly changing the IQ tests).
