But James Flynn, Emeritus professor of political studies and psychology at the University of Otago in New Zealand, argues that people can ‘upgrade’ their own intelligence throughout their lives.
但是新西兰奥塔哥大学政治学和心理学退休荣誉教授詹姆斯•弗林说,人们能一辈子“升级”自己的智商。
He believes intellectual stimulation from others is crucial as the ‘brain seems to be rather like a muscle – the more you use it, the stronger it gets’.
他认为,他人的智力刺激非常关键,因为“大脑似乎和肌肉非常像——你用得越多,就越强壮。”
However, the reverse is also true – so people who share a home or workplace with the intellectually challenged risk seeing their IQ levels nosedive as a result.
然而,反过来说也成立——所以,与脑筋不太好使的人同居一室或一起工作,会有智商直线下降的风险。
Professor Flynn analysed US intelligence tests from the last 65 years and correlated the results with people’s ages. This enabled him to compile new IQ ‘age tables’.
弗林教授分析了美国过去65年的智力测试,研究了测试结果与年龄的相关性。通过这项研究,他编制了新的智商“年龄表”。
He found the ‘cognitive quality’ of a family alters the IQs of all members, especially children.
他发现一个家庭的“认知特性”能改变所有家庭成员的智商,特别是孩子。
