Interesting bit of news from "The Globe"...
"Now we have a study suggesting the average IQ of the average youngster in the year 2002 is roughly 25 points higher than the intelligence quotient of their grandparents.
And the reason is video games.
A psychologist at Cornell University in New York has found that youth testing in westernized countries has seen the abstract reasoning and thinking portions of IQs rise by approximately seven points a decade, leaving today's children 15 points brighter than their parents who are, in turn, brighter than the grandparents.
Nutrition is part of it, of course, but researchers claim the real brain prod appears to come from the constant interaction of children with video games, the Internet and even television." |
