Iq Can change in teenage years!

Hi guys, I was just reading the BBC News website and came across this article. Sighting that IQ which was previously thought to stay around the same through the entirety of a persons life can change a lot during the teenage years.

A study conducted on teenagers which took the IQ of 14 year olds then again at 18, showed that the IQ can improve and deteriorate between the two ages. "The results show that a change in verbal IQ was found in 39% of the teenagers, with 21% showing a change in "performance IQ" - a test of spatial reasoning."

The full BBC Article can be found here.
