| Ramine <toto@toto.net>: Mar 02 04:17PM -0500 Hello.......... It has been shown in numerous studies that intelligence increased in many countries from the early years of the twentieth century.. The Flynn effect also has been reported in a number of economically developing countries including Kenya (Daley, Whaley, Sigman, Espinosa, & Neumann, 2003), Brazil (Colom, Mendoza, & Abad, 2007), Dominica (Meisenberg, Lawless, Lambert, & Newton, 2005), South Africa (Te Nijenhuis, Murphy, & Eeden, 2011), in several countries in sub-Saharan Africa (Wicherts, Dolan, Carlson, & van der Maas, 2010) and in the Arabic-speaking countries of Sudan (Khaleefa et al., 2008 and Khaleefa et al., 2009) and Saudi Arabia (Batterjee, Khaleefa, Ali, & Lynn, 2013). The magnitude of the Flynn effect has typically been around 3 IQ points a decade (Flynn, 1984, Flynn, 1987 and Kanaya and Ceci, 2011), but has varied considerably for different tests, ages, countries and times. There is no consensus on the factors responsible for the effect which has been attributed to a more scientific way of thinking, greater or better education, improved nutrition, more cognitive stimulation, smaller families and other factors reviewed by Williams (2013).
