Question

What about the recent claims that 'IQ is going down'? Anna Livia (talk) 18:24, 17 July 2019 (UTC)

I don't think so, at least not globally. Just from what little I know. From an initial fishing around for sources on that I found a big one that's specifically from a US sample. I think many of us know how badly the US education system has been collapsing over the past... however long it's been falling apart for. I would not be surprised if the US is getting dumber, although we may still be smarter than a couple generations ago. The wheel of progress doesn't turn inevitably. Invest in good institutions or you'll reap poorly. School class sizes are only getting bigger! Chillpilled (talk) 23:25, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
