Why are IQ’s Dropping On A WorldWide basis
08/30/2017 04:41 am ET

This is a very interesting question and we hope the data discussed in this article provides deeper insights into this issue.

The most pessimistic explanation as to why humans seem to be becoming less intelligent is that we have effectively reached our intellectual peak. Between the 1930s and 1980s, the average IQ score in the US rose by three points and in post-war Japan and Denmark, test scores also increased significantly – a trend known as the ‘Flynn effect’. This increase in intelligence was due to improved nutrition and living conditions – as well as better education – says James Flynn of the University of Otago, after whom the effect is named.

Westerns have lost 14 IQ points on average since the Victorian age, according to a study published by the University of Amsterdam last year. Jan te Nijenhuis thinks this could be because intelligent women tend to have less children than women who are not as clever, The Huffington Post reported.The perceived link between IQ and fertility is a very contentious one. Daily mail


One would think that the answer would be complex. The following excerpt provides a nice introduction to this topic. One thing is obvious though; low IQ individuals are easier to manipulate. This is why so many people keep falling for the scam that states stock market crashes are nothing but disasters, when in fact, they make for once in a lifetime buying event.  This is why we look at the individuals pushing the  Stock Market Crash 2017 story as snake oil salesman. They are selling the same old story with a different packaging

Dr Nijenhuis studied the results of 14 intelligence studies conducted between 1884 and 2004 to come to his conclusion. Each study measured peoples’ reaction times – how long they took to press a button after being prompted. It is claimed that reaction time mirrors mental processing speed – so it reflects intelligence.

They found that visual reaction times averaged 194 milliseconds in the late 19th Century, but in 2004, they had increased to 275 milliseconds. This would suggest that people have become less intelligent, they said.

Now some experts believe we are starting to see the end of the Flynn effect in developed countries – and that IQ scores are not just levelling out, but declining. Scientists including Dr Flynn think better education can reverse the trend and point out  the perceived decline could just be a blip. However, other scientists are not so optimistic.

Some believe the Flynn effect has masked a decline in the genetic basis for intelligence, so that while more people have been reaching their full potential, that potential itself has been declining. Some have even contentiously said this could be because educated people are deciding to have fewer children so that subsequent generations are largely made up of less intelligent people. Full Story

Using the same data, a different author arrived at a separate conclusion (posted below). We suspect that more is at play other than just the “white factor”.  Terrible food (more like poisoned food), water supply that is far from pure, overuse of antibiotics and abusive use of vaccinations, etc.  Something to consider; breeders would not take a prized Male stud and mate it with a weak Mare; the chances of producing a winner would be slim.

Although the drop in IQ levels was recently presented in the controlled media (and the Daily Mail in particular) as some type of mysterious drop to which no easily-identifiable cause could be attributed, the decreased IQ is obviously the product of mass Third World immigration from countries with much lower IQs. According to the statistics, IQ test results in the UK, Denmark, and Australia have shown a significant decline in the past decade alone, and the average IQ of “Westerners” has plunged 10 points or more since 1900.

In the UK, for example, tests carried out in 1980 and in 2008 showed that the average 14-year-old was two IQ points cleverer in 1980. Brighter teens who took part in the study in 2008 were on average six IQ points less intelligent than their counterparts tested 28 years earlier. What the tests did not disclose was that the number of nonwhite British pupils in primary schools as of 2012 was 27.1 percent of the total in primary schools, and 23.4 percent in secondary schools. At this rate of reproduction, nonwhites will be the majority of the population under the age of 21 in the UK by 2030. Full Story

The nations with the highest IQ are all Asian and if you consider that the ethnic population is predominantly Chinese in the top two countries than it would be fair to assume that in general, the Chinese have the Highest IQ as a group.   ...

All of my daughter's friends are intelligent articulate children.  The ones who aren't academically inclined seem to have other strengths. Only a few fat kids at her school.

What are you saying about fatties, Gordon?

Notice how poor people are usually fat?

It is not just a matter of having the smarts. It is a matter of having the disposition and skills to become a doctor. Not that you can't develop an attitude and skills whilst attaining your qualifications. But if your parents have the attitude of working in blue collar jobs, no matter how law-abiding and constructive they are in the job, they would need to have an upwardly mobile socioeconomic attitude to get that expected cultural demeanour to allow you to become a doctor/surgeon/gp/nurse, etc. Otherwise, top of the class Billy-from-the-sticks would have to work a few years and attain some credentials before attempting a degree in medicine.

Idiocracy.

Muslims having sex with their relatives does not really help with the average IQ either.

Incredibly enough, and I know you will be amazed at this. This thread isnt about you. No one cares.

its actually not a bad thing.
that people are eating rubbish foods and spending hours in a durrr state on facebook.
its not a bad thing that they arent learning how to read, to write and to understand a nuanced arguement.

the level that fat steve and fat janeen are playing at is almost reptilian.
they are almost able to run just off of their hypothalamus.
they just seek to satisfy basic appetites and to pleasure themselves.

isnt it interesting that we evolved with 2 sides to our brain.
there has to be a biological reason for this.

one side is the creative side that likes challenge and chaos and the other side likes logic (making order out of chaos).

governments , by trying to construct a very safe environment for us have sought to reduce this chaos.
so, it is unlikely that living in sydney you will be torn to pieces by a wild animal or speared by someone from a neighbouring tribe.

but with this "ability to deal with chaos gone", with this evolutionary pressure gone, people just wither on the vine.

if you are willing to courageously move forward and take risks and live with uncertainty (the space of the rugged individual), then the sky is the limits nowadays.
there is so little competition, so few people walking the narrow raod to success, so many butt hurt cry babies who need a safe space at a school or university,

if you can just get in momentum, then you will win everything from everyone all the time.
the trick is not to be sucked into the prevailing cultural hypnosis

people don't have to spend as much time on research

"Every ten years, the average IQ goes up by about 3 points. Psychologist James Flynn has spent decades documenting this odd fact, which was eventually dubbed the Flynn Effect. The question is, does the Flynn Effect mean we're getting smarter? Not according to Flynn, who argues that the effect simply reveals that IQ measures teachable skills rather than innate ones. As education changed over time, kids got better at standardized tests like the IQ test. And so their scores went up."

Now of course if you dumb down teaching, teach to the slowest learner in the class, that would appear to have an impact. Don't give the opportunity to exercise the brain, the results would possibly show up as reduced IQ.

Why are IQ’s Dropping On A World-Wide Basis?

In my opinion, it's because of the world-wide growth of Socialism. 

Why Asian's excel scholastically may be due to their willingness to accept lower rewards for excellence, combined with their highly competitive nature.

You mean like Asians schooled in Australia? Shock horror.

I dont think academic achievement should be confused with IQ.

Mattyfisk wrote on May 30^th, 2018 at 8:51pm:



Want to try and communicate that in english, sh1thead.

1. You mean the flourides.
2. Since IQ is an average correlated to 100, how can it be dropping

Photoshopped.

How can a fatso like Trump, standing 190cm tall, be only 108kg? I am 177cm tall and 115kg. Yet, I look more like a triathlete than he does.

The trolls in this forum are excellent examples of sub zero IQs.

They cannot string more than a few words together without insulting someone.

They cannot stay on subject and have nothing worthwhile to contribute.

They probably believe themselves smarter than doctors because they can't read the doctors script.

They still believe water runs uphill
And that cars run on magic.

They try to bring people down to their pathetic level by insulting and stalking them.

But we must be compassionate to our troll retards.
They can't help being trolls.
It's what happens when they look at their lives and realise that
They have achieved nothing
They have done nothing
They never will be anything
And are consummate cowards who hide behind keyboards.

Sad little trolls.

Setanta wrote on Jun 1^st, 2018 at 8:18pm:


Yes?
They demonstrate symptoms of retardation.
And they are cowards, as I have previously pointed out before.

If you are attempting to call me a troll.

Who have I insulted?
Which poster?

Anything?

It's an objective observation of the troll and it's mannerisms.

One must not shy from the truth.

This forum has several serial trolls

Doing nothing but insulting and disrupting threads.

I have been targeted and simply which to point out the truth of the troll.

I target no one in particular UNLESS personally attacked.

And ignore those who I know are a lost cause.

But I will continue to advertise the failings of the chronic toxic trolls.

Agreed.  There seems to me a definite relationship with maths, which relates to sciences such as engineering and physics, but the closer we get to the social sciences and arts, the more EQ becomes important, because conforming to the status quo and not making waves is more important than new ideas that go against the flow.

That's the way it goes in Australia anyway.  Other nations might have more effective ways to incorporate high IQs into social sciences.
