A 15-y/o doesn’t even have a fully developed brain, as that doesn’t happen until around the mid-20s. What an idiotic so-called study! It should have tested people around 30.
I’m guessing China and India are numbers one and two—but they aren’t included. (At least I assume India was excluded as well.)
Why? May well have more competition there.
Considering the size of their populations and that their people do very well when located around the rest of the world, and China and India probably are at the top of list. The only two “countries” that could possibly challenge them would be the EU and the US, and the US only because of the smart people who move here in adulthood.
IQ holds remarkably constant, among cohorts, as they age. The only factors likely changing the rankings in adulthood could be the relative immigration or emigration of smart people within an individual country.

ahhh okay got it now.....Truthfully I figure that most of Texas is marter than the average bear but there are those who want immigration to flood their state the way it has California. Gotta work hard against it
It would be interesting to see the ethnic background of the brilliant people in each of those countries. I suspect that the results would not be politically correct.
