I did not think my IQ would be as high as this. I am usually quite confused by these tests. During the test, I kept turning my head funnily (is that a word?) and using my hands to picture the pictures? better (like with the left/right parts) haha. With the analogy section, I did not know some of the words. HOWEVER even with all of these interesting questions, overall, I thought the test was a lot of fun! =) and I'm happy to know that even with my absentmindedness, especially with directions, I've still got something up in my brain other than air. yay! the reason I got a higher score than I probably should have gotten was probably because I took nearly the whole class instead of 30 minutes to take the test >.< woops!

(before reading: I hope not because I'm the youngest in my family! >.<') Time for the summary!
A 1973 cross-sectional study by Lillian Belmont and Francis Marolla found that the larger the family size, the poorer the performance on the intelligence test. Furthermore, basing off of the scores of the children, the first born children > the second born children > the thrid born children .... Because this study was cross-sectional, the studying of information among different families, it is seen that the first born children had higher IQs. However, in a logitudinal sutdy, the studying of an individual family over time, it is seen that there is not a relationship between the two. Due to the differences in these two studies, the Admixture Hypothesis was formed which links IQ to other factors such as parental IQ and socioeconomic status; low IQ parents tend to have more children. However, the problem with this hypothesis is that the mean IQ score is increasing instead of decreasing. In more models, reasons to explain why the firstborn has a higher IQ are listed: primogeniture, parents focus attention on first-born, treated like an adult, and tutors the younger siblings. (Don't worry if you're a later born child though!) Through recent studies, the IQ differences between the siblings has been very small, so it is not too big of a deal! =)
Great score on your IQ your one of few people that I know actually gave almost 100% of their attention and tried on that thing. Like I said in my post I dont believe that TOPIC is true. I find it funny. (AND IM THE OLDEST...) Anyways I would give your post a 10 out of 10. You did everything you were suppose to do :) !
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being very superior haha :P also, I like how everyone did the birth order article lol. It's really interesting though so I understand why, especially cause I'm the oldest which makes it an ego boost for me :P but yeah, awesome IQ score!
ReplyDeleteGood for you and your high score; guess you were smarter than you thought.I think that whole birth order affecting intelligence thing is baloney..maybe because I'm the youngest too? Anyway, I like your blog, the fall leaves are nice. :)
ReplyDeleteI would give you a 10 out of 10! You followed all the instructions. You are obviously very smart and have high standards for yourself.I would like to believe that the birth order does not affect intelligence..maybe because Im the youngest too.
ReplyDeletedon't know if "funnily" is a word, however google spell check seems to indicate that it is lol.
ReplyDeleteand nice job on the IQ, you are really intelligent.
also great post, nice job including the chart to put this post over the top
10/10
haha yeah, I hate iq tests, too... I hate thinking outside of the box D=
ReplyDeletewe were supposed to write a summary??? oh well... and ohhhhh I think I understand the article now (I was gonna do that article, but it kept confusing me...) =]
