Ya think? Oh well, to the new study out! For the first time in IQ testing, psychologists have found that female scores are better than those of men. Since IQ testing began a century ago, women have been as much as 5 points behind, leading psychologists to suggest embedded genetic differences. But that gap has been narrowing in recent years and this year women have moved ahead, according to world-renowned authority on IQ tests, James Flynn. One possible explanation is that women's lives have become more demanding as they multitask between raising a family and doing a job. Another is that women have a slightly higher potential intelligence than men and are only now realizing it. (Daily Mail) Do you think that IQ tests are an accurate measure of intelligence? So, was there really ever any doubt? Thoughts?
