ON INTELLIGENCE IN CHILDREN

SUMMARY: The Intelligence Quotient (IQ) was measured in 118 children, aged
10-12 years, who were life-long residents in two villages of similar population
size and social, educational and economic background but differing in the
level of fluoride in drinking water. The children in the high-fluoride area
(drinking water fluoride 3.15 ± 0.61 mg/L [ppm]) (mean ± S.D.) had higher uri-
nary fluoride levels (4.99 ± 2.57 mg/L) than the children in the low-fluoride area
(drinking water fluoride 0.37 ± 0.04 mg/L) (urinary fluoride 1.43 ± 0.64 mg/L).
The IQ of the 60 children in the high-fluoride area was significantly lower,
mean 92.27 ± 20.45, than that of the 58 children in the low-fluoride area, mean
103.05 ± 13.86. More children in the high-fluoride area, 21.6%, were in the re-
tardation (<70) or borderline (70-79) categories of IQ than children in the low
fluoride area, 3.4%. An inverse relationship was also present between IQ and
the urinary fluoride level. Exposure of children to high levels of fluoride may
therefore carry the risk of impaired development of intelligence.

Eleven points?!
Damn, that's a huge difference!

But really all IQ tests are good for, is a measure of how well one would do in an academic situation. NOTHING else, and are only a snapshot of the point in time at which they were taken.

They are pretty much useless for anything else.

Poor Africa? Just means they haven't had their fucking mind clouded with toxic culture.

I wish Malta was on that list; you wouldn't believe how dumb people are here.
