That feels more like a cultural problem. The west and America in particular hyper focus on IQ being a measure of intelligence.
That is bunk.
Where I am from it is viewed as a test given yearly to children in grades 1-8 to help see how they are doing and how they can be helped in the coming year.
The tests are identical. It is the American culture hyper focused on race that has made people believe in all these myths regarding IQ.
In fact, taking an IQ test as an adult where I’m from is bizarre and a bit comical. As that’s not what the test is for at all, and is silly.
