I am sure there is some correlation, but the IQ test does not measure common sense. But, you are right that IQ by nation statistics show that Africa is very low, the middle east is very low with the exception of Israel, Mexico to Argentina is generally low. These are averages and do not mean someone cannot come out on the top end of the Bell Curve.
I think that high IQ with high common sense (which I don’t know of a test for) combine for success.
Dont forget drive and determination and discipline and duty
DDDD
nice ring to it
Fascinating.
As Argentina is of pure European extraction their IQ should be the same as Europe.
Of course they said that they were three IQ points ahead of Chile because Chileans had some "non-white" ancestry so their IQ must be lower.
That is interesting as Chile is a stable and prosperous country and Argentina has been a basket case for generations.
You would think it would be the other way around.
Or perhaps their work is a mix of government propaganda, some bits of what might be true and a great deal of pure hooey.
IQ + common sense + good work ethic = trifecta
