ARE IQ TESTS REALLY SMART OR REALLY STUPID

from PSYCHOLOGY OUTSIDE THE BOX Hosted by Dr Flower

Great news everybody. I just found out that my IQ test results came back negative! I guess I've been worried all week for nothing. Unfortunately, IQ test results are often misunderstood, misinterpreted, over-interpreted, and over-hyped by many people. So yes, IQ and intelligence are really, really complicated. Do IQ tests accurately measure intelligence? Can IQ tests tell you if you're a genius? Was Einstein's genius already there at birth? Are IQ tests missing any important traits or abilities? Does intelligence contribute more to success than other factors? Do people who are illiterate lack intelligence? In the past, why were women considered less intelligent than men? Which animals have the largest brain and should they rule the planet? Do we inherit intelligence from our parents...is there an IQ gene? Is intelligence the same as having lots of information or knowledge? Are online IQ tests accurate or just a scam? Are there many people today who have an IQ greater than 160? Why will my Practically Perfect IQ Test NEVER EVER succeed?
