A graph/Bell Curve of IQ has a mean(average) at 100 .
This means that those below 100 is about 50% of the population and those above 100 are also about 50% of the population.
People below '60' are thought to be 'imbecilic'. and those above '140' are thought to be 'genii'. (The plural of 'genius' ; NOT 'geniuses'.
However, the populational percentage outside these limits is very low.
You need to rephrase the question to get a meaningful answer. The average IQ is 100 and only a small percent have exactly that IQ. Most, however, are within the range of 85-100.
That will be close to 90 percent of the population. Only about four percent would be above and below that area.
About 98% of the population.
IQ means Intelligence Quota - how smart you are. Take a Mensa IQ Test online. 100 is average - 150 is extremely intelligent. Below 100 needs improvement.
Sure. IQ is a score of mental ability. The "average" is 100, but the scale is not linear, like on a ruler. The span of IQ scores from 85 to 115 accounts for about 68% of the population, the span from 70 to 130 accounts for about 95% of the population. If you have an IQ of 116, you're *just* in the (95-68) = 27% of the population. Anyone with a score below 70, or with a score above 130, is in a rare group that are only about 5% of the total population.
Fifty percent of the population has an IQ above 100.~Dr. B.~
Approximately 6.68% of the population falls within one standard deviation above the mean IQ score of 100, which includes an IQ of 128.
The average IQ of the population in North Korea is estimated to be around 83, which is considered to be below average compared to the global average IQ of 100.
You need to rephrase the question to get a meaningful answer. The average IQ is 100 and only a small percent have exactly that IQ. Most, however, are within the range of 85-100.
The average IQ level of individuals in a population where 100 IQ is considered the norm is also 100.
50% of the population has an above average IQ.
IQ (Intelligence Quotient) is relatively stable throughout the lifespan. The average IQ for any age person is 100. Sixty-eight percent of the population have an IQ ranging from 85-115. The graph below will illustrate IQ scores in a typical population.
By definition a 96 IQ is normal. IQ test results are adjusted for age so that an half the population will score above 100 and half below.
That will be close to 90 percent of the population. Only about four percent would be above and below that area.
About three percent.
First the only thing that an IQ test measures is the ability to do IQ tests. 100 is considered average IQ.
The average human IQ is 100, anything above or below is separated linearly.
