RE: What Do You Think Is The Average IQ Of Steemians?
Not quite, historically it's been a measure of how your brain performs relative to your age group. How many push-ups or sit-ups you can do mentally, if you will.
What this means in a social context is another matter.
It was first developed for identifying those children whose learning disabilities were caused by deficiencies in cognitive development.
IQ works surprisingly well as a group-level predictor of outcomes across a lot of domains.
