How should I interpret Figure 8?<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;journals.plos.org&#x2F;plosone&#x2F;article&#x2F;figure?id=10.1371&#x2F;journal.pone.0281779.g008" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;journals.plos.org&#x2F;plosone&#x2F;article&#x2F;figure?id=10.1371&#x2F;...</a><p>If the difference between the 2012 and 2020 cohorts is roughly the same as between the 2012 and 2002 cohorts, why should I suspect this isn&#x27;t just a failure to pick comparable cohorts across the decades?

Is this because increase social media&#x2F;internet use?<p>Edit: Also, how can the average IQ be 112? I thought it was always 100?

I thought IQ was more inherent? Why would missing a year of school make you dumber or smarter?<p>My school when I was growing up tracked you based on an IQ test at age 4. How does that type of test vary as you age?
