Calculating Average IQ Using Economic Data

Postby Independence Hill » Sat Mar 06, 2021 6:42 pm

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

Example:

(HDI + Intelligence + Health) - (Ignorance) = z

z * Productivity Score = (y)

√(y) / 100 = x

x + Economic Classification Score = IQ.

65.49 + 40.99 + 4.06 = 110.54

110.54 - 4.78 = 105.76

105.76 x 35,000 = 3,701,600

√(3,701,600) = 1,923.9542614106

1,462.46367476 / 100 = 19.2395426141

19.2395426141 + 85 = 104.2395426141

Economic Productivity and Classification Scores:

(Productivity score on the left / Classification score on the right)

Frightening = 50,000 / 100

All-Consuming = 45,000 / 95

Powerhouse = 40,000 / 90

Thriving = 35,000 / 85

Very Strong = 30,000 / 80

Strong = 25,000 / 75

Good = 20,000 / 70

Fair = 15,000 / 65

Reasonable = 10,000 / 60

Developing = 5,000 / 55

Struggling = 3,000 / 50

Weak = 1,000 / 45

Fragile = 500 / 40

Basket Case = 250 / 35

Imploded = 100 / 30
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.

This is highly inaccurate. The average IQ is not determined by the highest setting for economics. Frightening is not the average or mean for economies. Good is the median which is the middle-- Average-- it should be set at 100. With 5 point increments, the average IQ would be 130 at Frightening and Imploded would be at 70. A dog has an IQ of 70. Below that and people are acting like raccoons, frogs and chickens.

Actually, it's fairly accurate. It takes health, in game intelligence, and human development into account, while subtracting ignorance. This formula has been tested on nations with the highest and lowest values and IQ scores always report back at a reasonable level. The highest IQ score recorded from the game is 169. I appreciate the feedback, but there is no better formula for determining average IQ. When another formula is created, I'll test it. But this one looks like it cannot be beat.

In fact, I'll calculate your nation's average IQ to prove you wrong.

(Intelligence + Health + Human Development Index) - (Ignorance) = 148.29

148.29 x 50,000 = 7,414,500

Square root of 7,414,500 = 2,722.9579504649, Round to the nearest decimal. 2,722.96

2,722.96 / 100 = 27.2296

27.2296 + 100 = 127.2296, rounded to the nearest decimal.

Your nation's avg IQ is 127.23


The reason why this is a fairly accurate and stable formula is because the values measured do not drastically change. Unless your ignorance level goes through the roof or your health, human development, or raw intelligence plummets, this number doesn't shift wildly. It's been tested on hundreds of nations and has held up.

You don't understand. That may be the smartest person but the average for everyone in a country or world will always be 100.

NS Stats are mostly accurate except for a few things, like this nation is capitalist and the death penalty isn't in effect

News:All trade with Crabaiaia and Pikala has stopped as diplomats meet in Trenaka.  Silvedanians are confused by Quentin Tarantulatino's new film, Seasonal Snackbox(This is a Bojack Horseman reference.) Weird song goes viral for making no sense.

Actually, you can have an average IQ of over 100.

In fact, according to inc.com, Massachusetts has an average IQ of 104, while Mississippi has an average of 94.2.

A score of 100 is the average for an IQ itself, but a population can have an average that's higher than what is considered average for a score. Also, try not to use expletives in your responses. I really don't want my thread removed by an admin because someone else is using profanity. Thank you.

The average IQ in comparison to 100 in my situation would be different. Imagine you are 50 years in the future with better education, better healthcare, nutrition, higher average income, and some genetic mamipulation. People will be on average smarter. Also go back 100 years into the past where there is little knowledge about nutrition, not as much access to doctors, education if you are lucky to the 8th grade, and much lower income. People will know comparatively less, a large part of IQ measures knowledge, not innate ability.

I agree. You hit the nail on the head when it comes to nutrition, healthcare, income, and access to education. Of all the various nations in the NS multiverse some are very advanced, while others are still in the stone age.
