Why is that people always downplay any positive trait from Asia? Western society has a deep-rooted bias against the East and will always be critical of Asian success
They just dont like the way they look.
The west believes it's based on effort basically. They will never gracefully accept the conclusions of high iq associated to east Asians without excuses such as cliches like "well Asians just studies harder and works harder" or "them and their tiger moms" or what nots. Lol. They will never admit it's simply due to high iq.
The trait of "IQ" itself is in question. Its testing has problematic racialized origins, and no amount of tweaking ever since has made it a clinically valid measurement.
@@doujinflipSure buddy. White people designed IQ tests to make Asians look good because they love us so much. You can’t be that dense to believe that.
@@doujinflip denial
Race is genetic, intelligence is genetic. But intelligence has nothing to do with race?
That's the PC answer. And everyone knows it but most are afraid to admit it.
People think that genetics stop at skin color.
Yes, that's because "race" is not intrinsic to mankind in the first place, but rather an identity constructed, often by socially dominant groups, to classify people based mainly on their phenotypical appearance.
Genetically speaking, as a species, the likenesses among men is *far* greater than their conceived differences. What people refere to as "race" is just a difference in allele and genotype frequencies [which any individual has different amounts of anyway], and even those differences are fluctuate, and often disappear in the course of time by reason of geographic and/or cultural isolation. This leads us to a situation where - in terms of genetic diversity - a White person is quite likely going to be genetically closer to many Black people than many other White people. Which makes sense, if you take into concideration that our species - Homo sapiens likely derived from the same common stock; Africa. Hence why Africa has the greatest genetic diversity.
As for IQ -- There is no consensus about how to define intelligence {see qualia}. Nor is it universally accepted that it is something that can be meaningfuly measured by a single figure. Different societies value and promote different kinds of skills, the concept of intelligence is therefore culturally variable and can not be measured by the same criteria in different societies. Consequently, it makes no sense to propose relationships between intelligence and any other variables. Especially, if you take into account the difference in intelligence between people in an ethnic group is greater than the average scores between the different ethnic groups. Meaning: The intelligence of all populations is largely the same. It's also important to concidere things like nutritional deficits, environment, cultural possibilities, biases, etc. before evaluating any of these tests. Furthermore, the creator of the IQ test himself said that it wasn't meant to measure one's set intelligents, but rather one's progress in learning so that schools could adjust according to different abilitis of their students.
@@xuimodOf course people gonna be critical of the issue, given the enormous amounts of human and social damage it caused/causes.
Environment and childhood education are stronger determinants of intelligence than genetics.
The top 6 are actually just all East Asian societies (Yes, Singapore too as majority are ethnic Chinese) to be specific.
The Singaporeans I've met even called themselves Singaporean Chinese when I met them abroad. They are quite happy to distinguish themselves from any other form of Singapore
@@leigh7507 Historically, Chinese who immigrate to southeast Asian are the poor ones. They couldn't live well in China. So they are not really the "elites" of China.🤭
Japanese and Koreans both have strong Chinese cultural influences. Glad that they are part of the Sinosphere.
@@tzenzhongguo which ones arent influenced by china? which ones are culturally strong on their own?
It's been east Asian countries on top 6 since the advent of this list!
Parents expectations and pressure. Study habits, self-discipline
Imo expectation and pressure doesn't bode well for mental health nor the format of IQ tests. Top country's education system usually result in more time spent in rigid memorization of information, not creative thinking and make un-orthodox connections (a giant part of IQ test is just pattern recognition - making fast connections that you don't see elsewhere). Study habits, same thing. You don't learn anything that directly helps IQ exams. if you look at the list Belarus and Finland is top 10 yet their education is COMPLETELY opposite. No pressure, you learn w/e u want, time is flexible...student basically have full autonomy. I honestly think this system is better. So education system in top 6 shouldn't really help since they discourage creative thinking and making connections, and focus more on memorization. Which would work great for a history test, not flexible exams. But certain part of IQ exam can be studied, but unlikely focus on since those top countries have a lot more important exams to worry about. All that being said, IQ exams is a tiny tiny part of human intelligence.
@@ThePortraitArt thanks for sharing. Can talk about entrance exams and college admissions. It seems that there is a backlash against Asians who perform exceptionally well, but the powers that be, will limit the number of Asians being admitted.
Subservience to *Authority!*
they dont mind pairing asian woman with white loser men though
Asians take education very seriously. 🙂
Also they have the largest average brain size.
Intelligence is not something you can educate.
Yeah, the average American, not really.
@@Procopius464The size of the brain actually has nothing to do with one's intelligence.
@@LilReezy_1437 Not in every case, but there seems to be a correlation on the aggregate level.
Asian brains built different
Not creative
@@baddie21358 True that is what they lack.
@@baddie21358East Asian-American here. Definitely creative > academic.
Not built any different the culture is hardcore with education. They have a fetish for education.
@@PrinceZakariyya That's bit blow the belt, but it has been said on websites.
Just note that Singapore, Hong Kong and Taiwan are pretty much Chinese so they take 4 of the top 6 spots lol
Not Asians. Just Japanese, Han Chinese and Korean.
I mean, India invented the number zero.
@@youknowkbbabyYou want a medal?
@@xXPurpleLoliTranceXxlol, not only that, but zero was independently discovered several times by different civilizations
Mongolians, northern Chinese, and Japanese have the largest brain capacities in Northeast Asia.
Absolutely
Asians in these countries score high in IQ. They are also disproportionately represented in academic achievement, STEM fields, SAT scores, lower crime rates, lower teen pregnancy, lower drug addictions, higher incomes, higher education levels, lower divorce rates, lower rates for STDs, lower rates of imprisonment, lower rates of single parent households, etc. These outcomes cannot be discredited as having zero correlation. To do so is dishonest.
No one is denying that Asians tend to do good on standardized tests, etc., what people are saying is that these statistics alone do not imply causation. There are many possible explanations as to why all these things might be the case, and it is not logical valid to just assume it is because of some innate racial difference. In fact, doing so is a logical fallacy known as "cum hoc ergo propter hoc."
@@LilReezy_1437 The article is exploring why Asians score higher on the IQ tests but the argument that you and others are making is that it doesn't matter. Why are you making an argument that wasn't the point of the article? Seems like an effort to discredit Asian outcomes as insignificant.
@@flyrodmikeThis article just threw a bunch a correlations at us - which again - since high heritability is simply a correlation between child and parents, it does not describe the causes of heritability which in humans can be either cuz of lifestyle genetics or environmental reasons [see missing heritability problem]. Therefore, a high heritability measure does not imply that a trait is genetic or unchangeable. In addition, environmental factors that affect all group members equally will not be measured by heritability, and the heritability of a trait may also change over time in response to changes in the distribution of genetic and environmental factors.
As for your second point about me wanting to discredit Asian achievements -- no, that's not my point. The myth of ‘race’ has created an enormous amount of human and social damage. Not only for my people, but Asians as well. In recent years it has taken a heavy toll in human lives and caused untold suffering. It still prevents the normal development of millions of human beings and deprives civilisation of the effective co-operation of productive minds. Even today their is enough reason to assume that this article will be misconstrued to justify race based policies, prejudice, self-hate, prohibit interracial marriage, etc.. That's why I encourage people to take these things with grain of salt.
But for the record, I'm not hating on any ethnicity. Personally, I fully support the dictum of Confucius (551-478 B.c.): ‘Men’s natures are alike; it is their habits that carry them far apart.' ✌🏿
Asian are very smart and very intelligent
In society, you can see the top six countries for IQ are the safest, the cleanest and the most technologically advanced in the world. Crime rates are really low, you can walk out in the streets at night even as a female without fear of being attacked, rates of stealing from shops and from other people are generally low, they have the most advanced and well maintained infrastructures such as roads, trains etc.
This cannot be a coincidence!
Exactly. 👍
Perhaps it's because those societies are not as diverse melting pots compared to places like the USA. Or perhaps there is more respect given to others and property, less selfish attitudes.
Haters will be like "That data is fake!"
Usual suspects are insecure yt guys because reality doesn't match their narrative.
I can believe it but surprised Japan is at the top even tho it's freer than china and korea. I expected China to be on top because it seems like the strictest countrt with ccp and etc.
Or cope with "Asians aren't creative"
@@hasrrit's because the ones who really study really know their crap... the ones who dont and cant afford it *super poor* just have to straight out work.. that's like %60+ of the country
@@TheAnonapersons i agree!
Throughout East Asian history, people studied the Civil Service exam to become imperial officials. This was the key to having a secure and successful life. This is why people put a great emphasis in education in East Asian families.
I went to an engineering High school. You had to take a pretty tough test to get in. Mainland Chinese would send their kids to this school. I was pretty smart. But I also liked boys (it was a boys school at first. I entered the first year of girls being let in) . So at the graduation, my dad (kidding around supposedly) asked why the kids call N-G (he said the letters he didn’t know how to pronounce it without the vowel) were so much higher than I was… I told him because I had a life outside of high school.
Chinese people put a lot of emphasis on education. In America, Jewish people value education like Chinese . My dad was so focused on education as opposed to my friends that went to high school and that was it.
Nowadays, this school is being prejudice towards white and Chinese people limiting our entry. ... Lowering the standards. They want to do away with the standards. What a shame. It was an amazing school.
Americas schools have been ruined by the unions. They’re are so political. China is teaching their kids math, science, etc. America is being taught nonsense. I’m sick over this… I’m happy “School choice” is becoming a thing.
The Japanese aren't nerds... what are you saying! Generally, aren't they known for being super cool? Oh but I do want to say that early childhood education is so important, and I agree, is more important than race re IQ on this list. [Edit to add] I was raised in the US and I remember the only person who was ever able to explain math to me was my friend _from Japan_ who moved to Chicago in high school. Yes, she was taking college math classes in high school and when I said I didn't understand _my hs math,_ she told me to put away my graphing calculator. No joke. She just explained everything to me with no calculator... and it made 100% more sense. There is a difference between plugging in numbers and understanding mathematical concepts.
It should be compared to time spent in education and studying. To understand how effective the education system is. The top Asian countries, they spend considerable more time studying.
You do understand that you can't study for an iq test.
@@noname-nu6oowhat the hell is education doing then???
As a Mum of kids that are both British 🇬🇧 (🇯🇲)and Japanese 🇯🇵 I noticed in Japan they tend to “pre-game” as at 3 years old kids have already started Piano, KUMON, after kindergarten lessons etc. So, kids are used to studying whilst a lot of Brits only learn about hardcore focused study at around 10+ when the real exams kick in.
As an Asian, I hope every Asian knows IQ is not everything.
Absolutely IQ matters, But you gotta be a well rounded person.
You simply must not raise your kid who's great in school, yet is a weak geek.
EQ is just as important as IQ.
Having said that, some people say we are living in the Asian Century.
It’s nurture vs nature; I’m Asian and I know lots of dumbasses, including me
scholar to dollar quote was funny!!! I worked with a writer from Japan that went to University of Tokyo and we used to say. Japan: Nation of Geeks.
Every year, this chart alternates up and down with positions. Some countries are not included in the study, as I heard. However, average goes to higher towards the same region.
I was studying in Taiwan, and yes, we studied like adults in elementary since like 3 or 4th grade we will get off like 4pm and we start school from 8 am in the morning. We do full time as students, and I think the standard for education in Taiwan is graduating in high school. And after elementary, we will have test to middle school, and after middle school, we have high school entrance exam too.
The picture that you guys used on the thumbnail with the kids actually pictures Masi Oka.
I think the “Asians lack creativity” argument does not hold well, considering that Japan has produced more Nobel prize laureates in the sciences over the past thirty years compared to European countries with comparable population sizes. Also, for countries that are still developing, it is reasonable for their people to be more risk averse, because producing the most creative innovations often require making many mistakes in the process and people from poorer countries cannot afford that.
Japan "learn"(copy) from china in the past and Europe in modern years. Not really much an innovator.

Appreciate, Respect and Honor IQ as a reflection of success.
IQ does help one to be successful in life.
IQ is an indicator of mental, emotional, physical, social and financial maturity.
It measures one’s ability and comfortableness in accepting and enjoying challenges.
An Asian 18-year old in San Francisco was a genius who scored 1595 out of 1600 in her SAT and won two-gold Olympic medals.
She is a successful role model, in many fields, because she has the maturity to accept and enjoy challenges.
Currently she is a multi-millionaire attending Stanford University, a role model and leader of success for everyone.
We should appreciate, respect and honor success!!
We have the best brain foods (seaweed) while the West is on another type of weed.
I'm surprised Vietnam isn't higher. I've met a lot of smart Vietnamese people.
many grew up poor but i bet they are just as smart as the chinese
Long wars' effect plus US sanction. Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Macau have advantage because of small population and better geography. Landlocked country like Nepal. Tajikistan or scatter islands like Philippines are hard for business and upgrade education.
They got choked off by communism. Vietnam will never be like Korea or Japan or Taiwan as long as they are under the communist's rule
It makes sense. Japan being jumber 1 of course because of their technology and cars etc... East Asians are strict and so are their universities. I am Filipino, but many of my classmates in elementary, middle school, high school, and in university who were East Asians were so highly competitive. They were so smart too. They were mostly Chinese, South Koreans and Japanese. I even have friends who went to Catholic schools and some in public schools. Also parents compared their child's achievements, profession, income, and universities. I do have East Asian relatives as well. In general all high achievers and have competitive drive. I think majority of Asians are smart also if you include SEA and Indians. I have a niece who geaduated top valedictorian of her high school class in the states and is taking up medicine in some top uni. But maybe also it could bein the family because majority of her family graduated as valedictorians or passed their professional board exams in the top.
But Japan is behind in electronic payment systems. Cash is still King there.
@@jimwoo9552 True

Asians are just smarter. PERIOD. Get over it.
I live in Venezuela and even there Asians are viewed as good at analytical for example.
Perhaps the study should be broken down by major populous cities instead of the country as a whole. That would alleviate the skewing of averages in countries like India, Indonesia, China, etc.
Part of it too is teachers in these countries are properly trained. There’s actual four year university training programs for teachers. In the US you could get a degree in something like philosophy or art history then go through a one or two year credential program and become a teacher.
People, it's okay to question the validity of the results and what it means to you, however, there is no question that they couldn't have gotten those higher IQ scores without the hard work and 10,000+ hours of exposure to their disciplines. It means a great deal for what they do where they are. I would hope you can say the same about what you're doing with your time and resources where you are.
My local museum (Minneapolis Institute of Art) has a China section with entire rooms rebuilt after being robbed from Japan and China. The Chinese paintings and metalworks from thousands of years ago eclipse anything else at MIA from comparative time periods. Japanese tea ceremonies derive from China. Dragonball Z and heroes like the Monkey King and Guan Yu are all Chinese “art.” How many mobile games knock off Guan Yu? Chinese art is so prolific it literally is in the fabric of every society……

Nevertheless, Vietnamese r truly smart.I've met a lot of vietnamese doctors, a group of brain surgeons.dentists, and likely in a high range in medical positions.
Definitely, there's almost either a surgeon, a dentist, a doctor ,or a pharmacist somehow within each Vietnamese family, as I've observed over the years.
Look into something I think that is called the long winters theory , as to why some ethnic groups have higher IQs ,I'm no expert but it makes sense
Creativity and IQ is two different things.
On point they are good with IQ but Creativity is what they lack.
Different but correlated
I mean, anime is one example
@@warmpianime is literally formulaic, not that original at all.
There is a reason why in Asian countries they bring in foreigners for marketing. They don't have the creativity to create new ad campaigns. It's backed by data
@@warmpi Many of the anime is the same concept, I say it is the games where they are given the ok to be creative.
I know why because Asian parents are strict with academics and work practices their strip their children of being kids having fun and playing games enjoying their youth. That’s why you see 3 year old kids with a suit and tie on with a briefcase and now the rest of the world is trying to follow suit smh.
But then they get to the adult world finding themselves unable to be a pleasant peer, an enjoyable team leader, and are left wondering why so many other people with less merit-driven attitudes are more confident and adaptive yet also professionally competitive. Childhood play with other kids too important to overall brain development to be spent studying technical knowledge you can always learn later in life.
That slipper and belt brought the iq up
I was born in Tsuen Wan but what's intelligence quotient?
If I had a choice between high iq society and low society iq, I would choose high iq without question.
We're just good at regurgitating. I remember the smartest kids were the ones who remembered everything, they didn't necessarily understand it in depth, but they regurgitated it enough to where it is memorized and they didn't need to understand it.
Old people are amazed when they remember details.
We're not just good at regurgitating lol, what kind of self hating boolsht is this comment lmao
IQ is more than regurgitating. It also involves abstract thinking.
A person with a photographic memory can regurgitate but have
a low IQ like a person with autism.
It's OK to break down the reasons for having a higher IQ, but it's probably a generalization (regurgitation vs. understanding) that is more anecdotal than factual. Perhaps if you look at any group of very smart people, you won't find any one characteristic or talent that is typical of everyone.
This is why some website said far eastern, people when it comes to education they a robotic. They tend not to think out side the box to solve problems.
It is the Confucius culture that keep the in box thinking.
Tell that to my brain, :(. I've been laid off and still searching for work. I have limited Technician skills. I wasn't smart enough to get engineering degree in tech. I barely support the Engineers when I was working.
Understated. Native languages. Defense Language Institute of Foreign Languages lists many of the Asian languages as difficult. The only European 🇪🇺 languages with high difficulty rankings are Slavic, Russian 🇷🇺 ranking as the most difficult.
The harder the language = the more IQ is needed to decipher it.
All thanks to Han Yu, a Tang dynasty Chinese Mandarin who was banished to Teochew; education is very high up our list of traditional values. . Many of my siblings and cousins graduated from university after 20years of schooling.
The difference in the top 10 is basically negligible
Just more hours spent on studying.
The mainland China stats for these are always massively skewed because they'll just sample Shanghai or some other relatively rich and educated area and go off of that, so that's the only way they could beat South Korea and so many other countries. I don't know how China keeps getting away with crap like that and always being able to skew everything in its favor. I'm sure India would also like if they could just sample one of those more well-off tech cities on the south coast and use that as their "national average" somehow.
No they have a high iq because they are Asian
Genetics and consciousness do wire a person’s mentality differently. And those indicators are not very quantitive but rather empirical to me.
I always loved Asians for their intelligence and wit. I work hard to leave Europe for Asia although European culture has also fantastic aspects I'am drawn to Asia.
Like Jewish culture, our Asian culture shared the same high desire of money, power and fame at any cost. Hence, soon after China change to Capitalism from Communism, China took off like a rocket, now back as a superpower as so for thousands of years.
Now the problem is some corporations become a monopoly (think Microsoft in the 1980s - 1990s. Without antitrust laws, Google or most software companies might not existed), that will ended up like Japan, and maybe Korea; or worst, India where the upper caste keeping the masses dirt poor.
Most of what I posted here I have been posting since 2004.
i know..
green tea
😥 if the study is reliable, this is VERY concerning.
IQ is our BEST predictor for a person's income (correlation coefficient 0.31) and does fairly well on predicting socio economic status, and longevity (but not happiness).
Genetics is the biggest factor in determining IQ (57%). If a person was born low IQ, we literally don't have the medical science to raise that IQ 😢
The average IQ cited in this study means thats the outliners (the top 1%) are even more pronounced 😱
what about Indians and Persian

I wonder how the largest population on the planet don’t have social skill? Make it make sense.
Americans are usually the most social and charismatic people, what are u on about?💀. I love Asians but they are just like Europeans in terms of socialising.
Asians are mostly just goal oriented and more keep things to themselves. They could be bullied for years in school and not tell anyone but then u find out after they committed suicide.
Keep in mind these are Asians in Asia (East Asia specifically). You'll defenitely see a difference between westernised Asian Americans vs FOB Asians.
Edit: Europeans are actually sociable as is any nation (everybody is not the same) but just in comparison to the west and USA they have lower charisma imo.
Regular knowledge test takers doing well on a knowledge test, big surprise. Doesn’t mean they’re actually smart in what’s universally useful and professionally marketable.
I agree, for example if you practice iq tests, you would get better at them. So I'd say the Asian countries are more on mastery of a specific thing.
Since we already have everything in this world that makes our lives better, what more is there to create? So just join the coperate world or sum. Be doctor and get rich, get a family and repeat. Life truly is boring when I think about it.
If you don’t procrastinate on studying for tests then you have a high level value system. The only way to get a high level value system is if you come to understand the value of certain things and how they connect to the world. For example one kid spends 5 hours a day studying for tests, one kid spends that time playing basketball to be a pro basketball player. The kid taking tests has more common sense and reasoning capabilities because he identifies variables and tries to understand how to maximize his success, he figures out that academia is a path to success and that basketball is heavily based on genetics and luck, he comes to those conclusion with very little information. You can only come to that conclusion if you are smart and make efficient neural connections. That’s why most people later in life say “man I wish I studied and tried harder in school” because there value system is so behind compared to the other kids. To sum it up, they are smart because they know to study for tests not because they do well on tests. If you are procrastinating on studying for school then your brain fails to reason out why it’s important, if it does reason out that it’s important then you’ll get a dopamine release further encouraging studying. And that’s all based on how much you know, how quickly you know it, and how you put it to use.

@@jameswatson5807 Are you pulling stuff out of your butt?
Overall, for me the definition of being smart means being able to survive in this world and living a comfortable life. But there is truth this data.
IQ results are more related to culture than intelligence. Earlier education is all about behavior. Asian kids are more respectful and well-behaved, and most importantly have a little bit more attention span. Regardless of race or ethnicity, any students who are more curious and willing to listen (this is how they'll get the info) will make progress quickly and thus perform well in these types of structured testing. Raw IQ is actually a deficit. From my observation and experience in the US, African American and Native American kids have serious behavior problems from 1st grade ( no respect and disruptive behavior). A distinct group of white Americans is problematic, but overall they behave properly. Asian Americans generally have good behaviors.
Its just culture. If african americans cut out all the negative stereotypes like being loud etc. They'll do good.
Cope. The literature is very clear on the fact that intelligence is a very heritable trait. If kids are mature at a young age it’s due to being smart or being raised by smart people.
Two twins separated at birth but were raised in different environments will have similar life outcomes. It's genetic.

IQ is a relatively accurate indicator of general intelligence, which is a relatively accurate indicator of societal success and positive outcomes.
Our society for the most part do have biases and these biases can favor some group over others.
@@phillip76 The biases you refer to are largely personal in nature, not systemic, so therefore have little impact on success and positive outcomes.
you made that fool sound like a fool
Not my cousin... She majored in Philosophy, got an SAT score of less than 1K and makes "sounds" for a living. Dumber than a box of rocks! 😂
😢 I don’t have high IQ…I am East Asian too
Vue.js and Ruby were both authored by Asians (Evan You authored Vue.js, Yukihiro Matsumoto authored Ruby)
Filipinos, Malaysia, Indonesia are not in the top 10.
they just did a survey and said that Filipinos are one of the top asian earners in the US behind Indians and Chinese. They're hustlers
No one can adequately define Emotional Intelligence.
Oh yes, intelligence to talk with crazy people. It might be possible to cheat them through machine learning and AI technology in upcoming future. Humans will eventually abandon their flesh to become something more.
I know, and it's kinda overhyped.
How well you work with people, read emotions and understand peoples faces. Moms, psychologists are good at it. It’s a female intelligence predominantly.
My iq is 133 from thailand i think on average under 100 there
More evolved.
How about that? They beat out south Asians. I would’ve expected that a south Asian country would’ve been in the top five or top 10.
South Asians are not the Mongoloid race.
India has no toilets 1
Indians seem more creative though
Buddhism, martial arts and cataract surgery came from India
because south asian counties have lower iq even though there is strict asian education standards in the country. This means genetics matter.
@@baddie21358 Saw an American produced history of inventions documentary of various regions of the world and the only thing said about India was that a baby was born.
surprised India isnt on there
because they average out the entire population to come up with the numbers. india has many extremely intelligent people (and rich people as well) but it is 'diluted' by a large pool of those who are not so intelligent or so rich. the difference between the top and the bottom is pretty vast.
They are ranked very low lol
india average IQ is like 80 LOL
I went to school in both US and Korea when growing up. I believe American kids can score much higher if they were educated the "Asian" way. What i mean by that is Asian education = memorization. While understanding concepts, processes, ideas and putting those in action are highly emphasized in American education, Korean education focuses more on "knowing" more. So it is straight up memorization of answers without really understanding the process or rationale at times.
For example, my mom (korean) is able to look at famous paintings and name the painter's names correctly about 9 out of 10 times. But when i ask her anything about the artists, she has no idea and replies "oh i dont know about all that. They just gave us names to remember". I had the same experience myself growing up in Korea. A simple example: most korean children learn 구구단 (multiplication table) like a song when we are young. When you ask a korean five year old what 9x8 is, they will surely answer you almost immediately. When you ask them to explain why they got the answer they got, you might encounter silence.
When i moved to the US, i was so shocked by all these presentations we had to do as well as all the annoying group work. We dont really do that in Korea. Korean school would rather use all that preparation time to teach students some more facts to remember while American schools give you more than enough time to understand and utilize a concept on your own. So of course a Korean kid scores higher on an IQ test than an American one because he is exposed to more material to remember.
American education is why Americans are not afraid to share their ideas and start so many successful businesses from their basements. I think Americans are freer in their way of innovative thinking while Koreans may be redirected to be concerned about what matters today instead of, you know, colonizing Mars or something.
Things like Google and Amazon always start from the US first and then only later we get sites like Naver (korean search engine) or Coupang (korean marketplace app). As it was mentioned in the video, Asians are good at making what already exists better. But those things wouldn't exist in the first place if it werent for the non Top 5 countries.
That's probably why korea is so unsuccessful, disliked, and neurodivergent, and colonized repeatedly (currently by u.s.)
Nobody cares about your long autistic narrative about korea... they've never been strong militarily or economically, yet they think they're better than whites, jesus is korean, english comes from korean, etc.. that's what your colleges teach. Nobody cares about you
Note that IQ is a test score and IQ scores can fluctuate as much as 20 points throughout a person’s lifetime and the brain is not completely hardwired (neuroplasticity)
Top 10 country
The 2023 Ipsos and Harvard Kennedy school studies ranked China The most happiest country...look it up guys!@
Yes that is true.
LMAO SURE
China is a huge country with many different peoples. So is the US.
It’s obviously genetics
There are plenty of smart and not so smart people out there. No need to categorize them.
go to africa and find some...none bro
Strength in diversity should = letting the most qualified ppl do what they're best at but giving everyone an equal chance. We are not clones. We are all equal in instrinsic value but def not physically & mentally equal. There's plenty of evidence proving that yet the US has continued to try to enforce this baseless, contrarian myth for decades & will unfortunately continue to fail. Tension & unrest will persist - unless they legalize genetic engineering & cyborg implants. But the technology is still far away & there are many legal obstacles. The only natural way to change genetics is intermixing between races/ethnicities or artificial insemination. Otherwise, they need a more realistic plan to deal with inequity. There's no shame in making six figures as a plumber or electrician & if ur good enough to run your own company u could end up rich.
Japan may be the smartest, but also the most socially tarded. Hands down!
Mad you got kicked out of Japan for not being Japanese and Now you can’t meet your waifu you met from discord.
@@DivinesLegacylmao
@DivinesLegacy nah, cause I'm not white like you lol try harder.
They aren't the smartest either, so basically double L.
@@P.90.603 In terms of products, Japan's market shares have whittled away in all areas except maybe autos. Japan had 8% share of global exports in 1993, right now it's down to less than 3% (!!). No other country has such huge decline. Re music, how often do you hear Japanese music playing on the radio outside Japan? They are a huge underperformer in pop music. And a country being known for "cute girls" is the opposite of a good thing...
"I'm not saying IQ matters" yet you still felt the need to make a video about it, suggesting you DO think it matters.
It Does matter, but isn’t everything. That was the gist of the video of you want to be charitable or give them the benefit of the doubt. If you think that iq doesn’t matter, please explain why? IQ is very important but it’s definitely not everything.
@@henrytep8884 IQ is not the sole determinant of success, as you mentioned. However, below a certain threshold, likely in the low 90s, the range of job opportunities may be predominantly limited to tasks such as flipping burgers or mopping floors.
It does matter though.
@@sveinndagur yeah that has nothing to do with what I’ve said though right? I mean can you actually properly articulate my argument in your words back at me? Then explain what your comment have to do with what I talked about or why you think you rebuttal makes any sense? I’m not arguing that it doesn’t play a role, I’m arguing that you are being uncharitable to the video by taking one line out of context. You want to talk about how iq matters, then please prove yourself in this conversation. How in any way shape or form did I make any claim that you think your response was appropriate or relevant?
@@sveinndagur and how much does it matter if it’s uncoupled from wisdom? Please explain how having high iq and low birth rate is wise or good in the long run? So something tells me that iq does matter but it isn’t everything. Do you disagree??
This is actually old news. Asian countries have always been on top including North Korea.
IQ is not determined by school. Obviously, having the opportunity to attend a good school will make a child fulfil its potential, but IQ is mainly influenced by genetics
Not really, maybe home school. Remember school is based around memorisation and not creativity. Teachers may tell their students to be creative but they may usually suck that creativeness out of them (this is stereotypical and does not apply to all teacher btw).
Lol China outpaces Merica in New Inventions, published scientific papers, and patents look it up! Wrote memory is the minimum requirement for innovation.
No they don't
They steal us schematics
Ever heard of the replication crisis? And is rote memory not wrote memory 🤦♂️
There is a 7 volume 27 book series on what the Chinese alone invented in the past.
And these days they lead in 37 of 44 critical technologies of the future
Seems like someone is regurgitating what she was told
IQ is memorizing and reciting unlike a savant mindset like Elon Musk.
IQ is just a test created by humans. so basically ur the best test takers. congrats /shrug
you don't think the economic results back the IQ test up though? Are any of the low iq countries doing well for themselves?
They’re lying. Nothing to see here folks! Carry on!
