In a study updated in January 2024, examining intelligence quotient (IQ) scores across the globe, researchers have shed light on the cognitive abilities of people in Central Asia as well, except for Turkmenistan. Let’s take a closer look at the average IQ levels in Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyzstan:
Uzbekistan: Uzbekistan holds the 80th position with an average IQ of 94.81. Despite its rich cultural heritage, the nation faces challenges in education and development.
- Kazakhstan: With an average IQ of 97.26, Kazakhstan ranks 64th out of 115 countries worldwide. The country’s educational quality and resources play a significant role in shaping these scores.
Tajikistan: Ranked 97th, Tajikistan’s average IQ stands at 93.17. The country’s historical and linguistic diversity contributes to its unique cognitive landscape.
Kyrgyzstan: Kyrgyzstan ranks 89th with an average IQ of 93.46. The nation’s mountainous terrain and multicultural society influence its intellectual abilities.
While IQ is just one measure of intelligence, it reflects the quality of education and resources available in each region. Factors such as academic achievements, cultural context, and creativity also contribute to our understanding of intelligence. The pursuit of knowledge and learning remains essential for all nations, regardless of their average IQ scores.
Earlier, it was reported that Kazakhstan ranked 58th in the 2024 global military power rankings, outperforming Uzbekistan by seven places, which secured 65th position.
