Well, I opened the thread to see how the members think of Thais.

And it's clear they think themselves to be the superiors.

I added an IQ test for everybody but got none response about the result.

My assumption (even more than assumptions) is that many/most were shocked not even getting the 89. I reckon 89 might be just the average here on AN.🥳

I noticed that you never posted a screenshot of your results.  Got something to hide?  
 

Perhaps had you chosen a site that didn’t require a credit card, more people might have answered.

Who designed the test and what life experience is it based on? So easy to rig a test to make Whites look superior. 

 

And what is intelligence? Here's one definition: the ability to live in your life conditions with the greatest satisfaction, peace, and social connection.

Social connection? Your logo's animal is involved?🥳

The OP is hiding his low IQ.

Not that this source is always accurate.  According to them Hong Kong had a population of over 9 million, whereas reality is just over 7.

 

You’re adding up districts that are already included in Hong Kong's total.
 

Hong Kong SAR is one city-region, not a collection of cities.
 

Kowloon, Tsuen Wan, Yuen Long, etc., aren’t separate cities — they’re parts of the city of Hong Kong SAR.
 

The site calls them “cities” for simplicity, but that’s misleading — they’re not cities, just districts within one city-region.
 

Hong Kong’s population is ~7 million — not 9.

Take it you scored less than 89?

The median Thai person has roughly the same mental faculties as a white/European janitor. 

 

It's very important to know this if you are to understand the country and why things operate like they do. 

 

From the fairly  frequent mention of the Dunning-Kruger effect in discussions I think that this effect is fairly well-known to the AN members at large.

The thing I wonder about is do the members in general consider the effect applies to anyone?

Including them?

Because you weren't smart enough to score higher.

That's the thing with Dunning-Kruger, you don't know you're experiencing it by definition.

Anyone can make an IQ test and there's many proxies. Working backwards from the chart I posted, career itself is a proxy for IQ.

 

Consider the fact the brain an organ and has a function like every other organ in the body. The idea is to make a test which measures the function of this organ.
