By what percent would you guys say being really sleep deprived would affect the results of an iq test

[tedkwasasaint]

Cause i did one a few days ago and im kinda questioning the accuracy I know it probably doesnt make a giant difference since iq tests are fairly inaccurate and there is not really a universal intelligence measurement but i still am abit curious so i wanted to know your guys thoughts on it i scored 100 and it was 12 at night for me and i had woken up at 7 in the morning and the reason i was up so long was because i was having some weed withdrawal's.

Yes, I would only take one on a good day when you are not fatigued or brain fog.

IQ is mostly just pattern recognition. I doesn’t tell you the big picture of someone’s intelligence, like creativity.

Dam ok i guess its probsbl abit innacurate now evenif i do retake cayse the first readings always the most accurate an this is the first iq test where i have actually looked at the questions and not some shit where im just clicking theough it to go home since i did it on my own accord this time

Yeah i dud kinda get that impression cause its supposed to test how much you can comprehend and learn but it moreso just tested how much i already know

i think being sleep deprived would affect my ability to preform at any task to my fullest potential

Yeah i kinda assumed i was just assuming it would but cause i wanted to know how much it would affect thats kinda the reason why i made the thread

If you score high on an IQ test , it means you’re smart, but if you score low on it, it doesn’t mean you’re dumb since IQ tests are actually flawed, and plus there are different types of intelligence.

how much it would affect it i would assume depends on exactly how sleep deprived you are, just a day you might not be as bad as if it was being awake for multiple days

I got a fairly average score not exactly on the low end and even if i were to have scored something insane like 160 or something like rhat i still think its a flawed system and there is not a universal intelligence test

That week i was averaging about 3 hours of sleep a night

That week i was averaging about 3 hours of sleep a night

thats about what i average every day for the last decade, its enough energy to do some things but probably enough to throw off any test results by at least 10%+ i'd assume

Yeah that kinda checks out

By 5 percent at most
