^ when they say Jew in a IQ study they mean a "Ashkenazi Jew".
strictly speaking, "Ashkenazi Jews" is a very contravertial category. Reputed literatures only mention this item as a sort of footnote. In classic literatures such as ones of Richard lynn, they only analyse caucasian, negroid, mongoloid 3 major categories, along with anything "in between" (mongrels), with "Ashkenazi Jews" serving as a special topic aside, because "Ashkenazi Jews" (mostly Eastern European Khazar converts indeed), belongs to the caucasian category. It belongs to Jews only in terms of religion. Hence there is no pure "Jews", racially speaking.
With European origin, Ashkenazi Jews only have 7 million or so worldwide population. If Ashkenazi Jews can be seperatedly listed from the caucasians when measuing average IQ, then there is no reason why Han Chinese, which is about 1 Billion in poplution, shouldn't be subdivided from mongoloid as well into several dozens more sub categories with different IQ averages (i.e. Mogolians, Manchurians, Cantonese, Wu people = Shanhanese, etc.etc., each of such subcategories having population several times of worldwide Jews combined), just like sub dividing Ashkenazi Jews from Caucasians.
To list "Jews", or "Ashkenazi Jews", in the same breath as negroid (blacks) , mongoloid (yellows) and caucasian (whites) when measuing average IQ, is as absurd as listing Staionaries, Furnitures, Fruits, Apples and/or green Apples in the same line.
