Why is IQ in Australia significantly lower than the global average despite it allegedly being a 1st world country?

Yeah, averaging 60 and 105 isn't good.

>> No.12357009

perhaps because of the challenging environment.
high temperatures have been proven to reduce the ability to concentrate a lot, see e.g. traffic accidents.

so seen the abos could have got the maximum out of it and at the same time kept nevessary things like
fast reflexes, resilience, strength,..

The results showed that measured intelligence predicts intellectual competence, but not crime. However, a connection was found between school competence and the fact of living in a socially disadvantaged neighborhood on the one hand and subsequent crime on the other. As a result, it is the social factors that determine possible later criminality and not intelligence.

0947, McCartan, Lisa M.: Gunnison, Elaine. „The IQ/crime relationship: An extension and replication of previous research.“ Journal of Crime & Justice, 27(1):61-86, 2004.

Another study, in which 1,725 young people aged 10 years or older were examined, deals with the same topic. This is a longitudinal study that was started in 1979. Here, too, it was shown that the effect of intelligence on criminal behavior is only very indirectly present. Intelligence acts as an important criminogenic factor where it contributes to low school achievement, which in turn is the reason for the probability of starting a criminal career.

No dumb dumb, 100 is the average for American whites. The average of all countries in Africa, South America and Asia (excluding North-East Asian populations) is less than 100. There's no way the global average could be greater than 100. Seriously, how could this be remotely possible? You think there's a bunch of countries with an average IQ of 120?

The criminals might've been sent to Australia, but it was often for petty crimes that today would be punished by fines. Now the criminality has been outbred and Australia has the same IQ as britain, perhaps more considering the numerous east asian immigrants.
