Are Asians smarter than non-Asians

Answer 1

These stereotypical statements such as "Asians are smarter" are judgmental and unprovable. Some Asians are smarter that some other people, but others are not so smart. Everyone is different.

There is no significant evidence that this statement is true or untrue.

Also it is very difficult to define or measure "smartness" and attributes such as this may depend on Nature (genetic makeup) or Nurture (upbringing and education).

Asian culture has a strong emphasis on education. To have a successful career, business, or position of high rank or hold some high status is emphasized very strongly in Asian families. Asian families are also more strict and traditional in their upbringing of their children. Their families are very structured. The whole culture pretty much emphasizes self improvement and bettering ones' status and that of their families.
