  • Arthur R. Jensen (f. 24. august 1923) er en amerikansk uddannelsespsykolog. Jensen er uddannet ved University of California, Berkeley, San Diego State College og Columbia University, New York . Jensen interesserede sig for de individuelle forskelles psykologi med en særlig interesse i intelligens og arv-miljø debatten og argumenterede stærkt for intelligensens arvelighed . Jensens undersøgelser viste, at intelligens var ulige fordelt på hvide og sorte amerikanere. Jensen blev fordømt som racist i de sene 1960'ere af en generation af akademikere, der reagerede på Anden verdenskrigs grusomheder. Jensen mente dog selv at han var blevet misforstået. Kontroversen førte i 1970'erne til voldstrusler imod ham og forbud imod at undervise i Storbritannien. (da)
