We can just get that from the Flynn Effect without doing anything
Flynn effect has stopped in the West and in any case was hollow for most of it. So no.
No, it's not. The hollowness has been known from the start and is quite obvious from the total lack of tail effects and subtest-specificity of gains. Stagnation papers have been coming out for decades, and even Flynn is writing about how it's been reversing.
Hollowness means inconvenient I guess? The Flynn effect is still going strong just ask Flynnhttp://www.apa.org/monitor/2013/03/smarter.aspx …
Yes, let's see what he says: "IQ decline and Piaget: Does the rot start at the top?", Flynn & Shayer 2017; abstract: "The IQ gains of the 20th century have faltered..."
In Scandinavia but not in the USA where IQ gains have continued. It’s one study too, not clear what’s going on, “IQ” tests vary.
The study in question is looking at principally the UK. And Scandinavia tends to be leading edge for trends, so given these studies also tend to be lagging behind by a lot... In any case, the other arguments still apply.
Were you planning to make an argument at any point?
