Assessing Average IQ of a Nation: Updated by suggestion

Postby Independence Hill » Tue Jul 21, 2020 12:07 am

IQ: (√((HDI + Intelligence) x Productivity Score) / 100) + ECS = IQ

Example:

(HDI + Intelligence) x Productivity Score = (x)

√(x) / 100 = y

y + Economic Classification Score = IQ.

66.29 + 40.65 = 106.94

106.94 x 20,000 = 2,138,800

√(2,138,800) = 1,462.46367476

1,462.46367476 / 100 = y or 14.6246367476

14.6246367476 + 110 = 124.6246367476

NS stats are canon. We are not a copy of the United States of America, just a nation with American elements. The large star in the middle of our flag is to symbolize the executive nation as a uniting force while the crown above is to symbolize that this executive nation also has central banking powers. We are still a democratic republic, with a president, two houses of congress, and a judicial branch.

210.05, or just 200 if we go by the limits you set out earlier.

That comes from:
HDI: 93.11
Intelligence: 116.94

Tinhampton scores at 66.82 HDI + 104.64 Quips/hr = 171.46 IQ - which is, of course, either wildly off the mark or dodgy Tinhamptonian accounting.

206.8, or 200 following the limit rule. It makes sense for Kuuj, considering we have a world-class education system with free college for everyone, and individualized attention readily available for anyone who needs it. The pursuit of knowledge is considered a cornerstone of Kuujian society... And with manual labor jobs becoming fully automated now, Kuujians are free to pursue careers in science, technology, education, arts and culture. Advances in cybernetics and genetic engineering technology, and the development of brain-computer interface technology may soon allow average Kuujians to truly unlock the full potential of their minds.

My region is a functioning nation. Nations within are States. We have a Federal, State, and City level of dealing with issues. I measure economic gain and loss everyday. I get all my data of NSDossier and NationStates Trends. We have a strong currency and we're looking for more States.

85.72 (HDI) + 126.05 (QPH) = 211.77. Hm, looks like Einstein would be average at best in Lillorainen ...

But then again, someone earning 300,000$ a year would be 'average at best' in Lillorainen as well, if NS stats are anything to go by.
Since Lillorainen's geography is currently being overhauled a 'tiny' bit, most information on it posted before December 12, 2018, is not entirely reliable anymore. Until there's a new, proper factfile, everything you might need to know can be found here. Thank you. #RetconOfDoom (Very late update, 2020/08/30 - it's still going on ...)

Yeah see, I don't think OP really thought this idea out much, mostly because, you know, in reality an average IQ is always around 100 (and most people will have an IQ in the range of 85 and 115), that's kind of how the IQ test is designed, ya dig?

Our average IQ is apparently a mere 60.46. Probably because our totalitarian brainwashing makes our citizens not have the mental capability of individual thought and freedom in order to maintain a uniform, ignorant populace that functions in absolute conformity.

tl;dr - after nuclear war, corrupt oligarchical hellhole emerges. ogre leads revolution, kills oligarchs after civil war, improves quality of life with progressive social policies and industrialization. couple foreign invasions, assassination attempts, personal losses, and rebellions later, ogre goes psychotic and kills anyone he’s sus of. then a fascist midget invades and kills third of the population, ogre manages to defeat him but goes completely bonkers.
now we got a hyper-totalitarian hyper-militaristic industrial hive-mind quasi-slave state that the ogre 70 years ago would be horrified at

As far as I know, average IQ is always 100, sort of a baseline if you will. An individual's score is compared against the average of 100 to determine if they are "above average" or "below average" in intelligence. Generally the scores don't deviate too much from each other anyway. Please correct me if I'm mistaken.

However, IQ tests are only used for children at most, as they are not considered completely reliable or accurate. IQ tests only measure certain types of intelligence and may have questions which are culturally biased. In most cases it doesn't translate into reality.

Anything higher would need some sort of drag to keep the result realistic. It could be that for every two points above 200, only one would count. Example- a score of 250 would be 225. The equation needs some sort of diminishing return to keep result realistic.
