IQ level of present generation

Now the generation is more fast due to the development of technology so their iq raised.

not IQ but EQ

Sandhya Rani what is the meaning of your answer. I didnt understand. can you please explain?

Read the whole posts under this article.then you will understand it more easily.

IQ- means 'intelligence quotient. This is computed by Mental age/ chronological age. If a child is mentally retarded, IQ will be less. Thus if a child is 15 years old but has intelligence of 10 years old, IQ will be 10/15 or 2/3. This is a topic in psychology. I do not know what EQ means.

It is true that the IQ level of children is now much more than previous generations, thanks to exposure to all kinds of information systems and easy access to a lot of educational material! Yet sadly, the EQ level or the emotional intelligence is decreasing because of which the children are having a hard time to adapt and adjust to others as normal human beings!

As Kalyani has quote,
EQ is emotional Intelligence which is decreasing in the present generation though their IQ is increasing. That's why new generation is not able to withstand even small difficulties in life.

High IQ is desirable but it has to be coupled with equal degrees of emotional intelligence, without which a person may become mechanical without human attributes such as warmth and caring for others and others' problems!

A link to my article on what it is all about!

yes children today are more smarter than we used to be.....they are more adaptive and more inquisitive than we used to be......

In present generation children have very good IQ. They grasp things with in a seconds. They are more intellegent

[quote]Is IQ level of a child born now more than a child born 15-20 years back? If so, isn't it a positive sign that the world is more developing in its culture and civilization?

I think you are right. Before 15 or 20 years back we did not get T.v. or Mobile or pc, now after birth a child see or get all these things.[/quote]

yes ...you are right.
Easy access of mobiles and computers have made kids more intelligent.

Intelligence Quotient level definitely increase generation to generation.

Yes....I agree...
I am sure, our kid is more intelligent than we two. sometimes, I feel surprised seeing her actions and thinking.

change is the only word that doesn't change. As per Darwins Theory we are come from one cell.

one cell - plant - animal - man

Now there is no other change is possible. So intelligent level is increasing its higher level.

Pressure of study is more compared to the past. Adaptability of a child is more till the age of 15.
Education helps in welfare of people but it has nothing to do with development.
Development of country and welfare of country are two different terms. Good IQ level of a child is positive indication of social welfare though the country remains backward.

Yes, kids of today have to study a lot than before. Parents are also helping them more than before. It only helps them to improve their skills, even if it often leads to burden :blink:

But the focus is not at all on developing a child's emotional intelligence, which helps the children to become more responsible citizens. Also, increased IQ in children does not mean any influence on social welfare or such but only reflects in their earning power and not their responsibility towards their society. Because of this we read of increased incidents of young men trying to kill girls they love because the girls do not love them or reject them. These young men are intelligent but emotionally lack any development and maturity.

yes I agree with you that IQ of kids alone can't help in social welfare or his ability to deal with different situations of life.

I want to ask you....Is there any method so that we can improve EQ of our kids from early ages itself....am asking it for my kid :cheer: :cheer:

What I feel that present generation is ahead as far as IQ is concerned but they are way behind in social behavior and mixing up soberly with others. They take every thing so casually that their non-seriousness is obvious.

Yes, you can! Without focusing only on studies you should set by example on how she should behave with others, talk with others etc. She should be made responsible for her own actions, words, etc. start from now because this is when her personality starts developing.

Actually, my kid less depend on others from early childhood. From the age of 2, she want to eat her own, select her own dresses to wear.....never want our help......sometimes, it make me angry too. Yet, often I feel happy because she is doing such things perfectly from the early ages itself. She even never allow us to help her in computer games.....everything self learning. Actually it has helped her a lot also, as she learn her own.
But only problem we face now is lack of relatives to interact as we are away from home town. Yet, she is comfortable with her friends

What I feel that present generation is ahead as far as IQ is concerned but they are way behind in social behavior and mixing up soberly with others. They take every thing so casually that their non-seriousness is obvious.

What is more frustrating that the parents don't encourage children to behave well with others! The other day, a boy aged 9 years pushed my son while my son was on his bicycle and my son fell down and was hurt. So I scolded the boy whose mother was not there. She came out after she heard the commotion and started fighting with me saying that her son never did push my son!! :sick: I was so angry! How can she say that when she was not even present there? This is the kind of thing that develops ugly monsters in these mean and aggressive children when they grow up!! :angry: :angry:

yes, our kids will grow mentally strong if we are able to point their mistakes. We should see such incidents for their future, not present.

Yes, it is for the good of children! The above incident I faced, I wonder when the mother of that mean boy going to grow up, forget about the boy!!! If the parents are not responsible and sensible, how can children grow up as responsible citizens?
