美国哈特福德大学的一项研究称,人类将变得越来越不聪明,到2110年,IQ指数每年降低8点——有些预估甚至更悲观。研究称,50年来人类IQ降低1个点,技术变得更先进了,人类却变得更笨了。一项用于测定丹麦男性是否适合服兵役的IQ测试显示,从1998年以来,人们的IQ指数降低了1.5个点。据记者鲍勃·霍姆斯发表在《新科学家》上的文章显示,在英国和澳大利亚的标准检测也出现了同样结果。对人们为何越来越笨最悲观的解释是,实际上人类已经到达智力巅峰。上世纪30年代和80年代期间,美国平均IQ得分上升了3个点,在战后的日本
According to a study by the University of Hartford in the United States, humans will become less intelligent. By 2110, the IQ index will drop by 8 points per year - some even more pessimistic. According to the study, humankind has become more stupid by reducing the human IQ by one point over the past 50 years as technology becomes more advanced. An IQ test to determine whether Danish men are fit for military service shows that since 1998, people’s IQ index has dropped by 1.5 points. According to a report published by journalist Bob Holmes on “New Scientists,” the same results have been observed with standard tests in Britain and Australia. The most pessimistic explanation of why people are getting stupid is that in fact humans have reached the peak of intelligence. During the 1930s and 1980s, the average IQ score in the United States increased by 3 points. In the postwar Japan
