Visual Pattern Memory Test

[NoaA99]

yea i know, ofc in real world cases the practice effect definitely plays a role but for purely testing its better to avoid

something that ive actually noticed is that although my result on the screen has markedly decreased ive gotten smarter irl, where concepts i couldnt wrap my head around when i was younger are turbo trivial and easy now

they arent that complex in the grand scheme of things tho im not some god in reality i imagine im just slightly above average

Wouldn’t recommend most people to go down that rabbit hole anyway. IQ is a variable, that carries real practical value, but hence also perceived value as a human being- pretty similar to looks.
It can really lead to a massive identity crisis for some.

Btw, for untimed tests, the practice effect becomes much less relevant, unless you take the exact same test.
Even then, it’s less critical.

For example, if you take the JCTI and retake it a few days later, giving it your full effort and also taking your time, your scores shouldn’t really vary much, if at all.

Also, that last sentence isn’t unusual for High IQ individuals.

glad to hear, hope you continue progressing in always you want as well

honestly, too lazy to do it
its a miracle i can stay focused enough to do the mensa test

Well the tests aren't going anywhere

 

[birthdefect]

Not sure, never got above 15. Someone else said they also got stuck at 15 but also @Mess got 18. So not sure what's going on there.

i think intelligence is purely genetic, in the sense that how well you respond to practice or really any stimulus is also entirely genetic

it's about 80% genetic, but tbf I think some of the other variance can also be explained by some other genetic factors like motivation, self esteem, etc. You can confidently say its mostly genetic but not entirely. Same as height.

i wonder what would happen if we microdosed lsd in children from like 1 to 18 and compare that with a normal person

You seek environments that kind of match your genetic predispositions.

You could probably argue that genetics shape tendencies, and that in of itself increases probabilities to interact with the environment in a specific way.
In that sense, I believe 80% may even be an underestimation, as you said.

just cheated and took a photo of every pattern. The max is 15. nice inspect element @Mess

no idea how everyone fell for it for that long. There isnt even a % for 18

best compliment ive ever had
and yea if i have twins im experimenting on one of them on my life i will

smart nigga, you think the mensa certificate is fake as well or nah?

its prob real. Even so all those "high iq society" are for pretentious faggots who want to feel superior. "Muh only top 2% iq can join" like India and Africa are single handedly lower the worlds avg iq. Top 2% isnt impressive in western countries. Mess still a smart guy tho

yea fair, you think you get way better connections if you go to mensa events?

Not only seek but are immersed in. Smart kids tend to have smart parents who make smart decisions, cultivate intellectually stimulating environments, etc. etc.

The IQ scale is normed around white American men.

yes top 2% isn't particularly restrictive in Western societies but no need to default to labeling it as pretentious. The average Ivy League school is roughly as exclusive as Mensa and probably more pretentious because status and money play a much larger role in admission. High intelligence can be isolating, it's not wrong to want to at least create an environment with some barrier to entry and guarantee of some level of intellectual parity. In practice Mensa is actually not very exclusive at all, I mean they have one requirement, which like you said, is not super rare.

There are societies like the Triple 9 society which accept only the top 0.1% or 1 in 1000. Being 1 in 1000 is probably a genuinely isolating experience. pretty much everyone you meet is going to 3 standard deviations below you and that's if you just make the cutoff.

12 but then again I’m not autistically focusing in like you guys

it's what you do everytime you log onto the forum
may as well add even a 1% chance of finding a good connection to it

Keep getting 15 I feel like I'm retarded though

Stuck on 15 as in can't successfully remember more or the test got stuck on 15?

I don't know about your full IQ as that test doesn't measure that but if you can hit 15 you have a very superior visual short term memory. The average is 9-11. Many people here are reporting higher scores but there's likely significant bias occurring.

The Visual Patterns Test (VPT) is the gold-standard neuropsychological assessment used to measure Visual Short-Term Memory (VSTM).

It was developed (most notably by Della Sala et al. in 1997) to isolate the capacity to remember static visual information ("what it looks like") distinct from spatial memory ("where it is").

This test measures Visual Short-Term Memory (VSTM) capacity, specifically isolating the visual cache.

It assesses the maximum amount of static visual information (pattern and form) an individual can hold in immediate memory, distinct from spatial memory (location or sequence).

By increasing the complexity after every success until a "3-strike" failure, the test establishes the user's Visual Span—the absolute upper threshold of visual items the brain can simultaneously retain before information overload occurs.

Take the test once in while in a relaxed state.

My score is 15, what's yours?

This was when i locked in JFL

bro I feel like a retard compared to these niggas, we got fucking chad over here with 18 and i see a ton of 15 scores, My visual memory is complete trash but i also have adhd idk if thats correlated or not like on a math test i have to do several practice problems for HOURS just to get like above a 90 on a test, although I finish first most of the time...

ADHD would do it as that is specifically a deficit in working memory. I obviously don't know about your case specifically but many people with otherwise high IQ scores are capped due to poor working memory. Good new is you can train your WM with tasks like Dual N-Back. It won't increase your max but it may help mitigate the effects of ADHD.

Yeah ive always been somewhat interested in this stuff, also I feel like i have good predictive accuracy as in Im good at predicting something if I was given context beforehand which I know is another benchmark of IQ. I've never taken an iq test before but I would probably fall in the ballpark of 120 lower max -125 at my uppermax. The two things im trash at is memory and spacial awareness like rotating 3d shapes and stuff. Some people in this thread with 130+ iq amaze me.

Do you plan on getting a definitive answer on your IQ at some point in the future?

I always thought of my visual memory as utter shit but got 12

Average is around 9-11, so no. 13 is a good score. My score of 15 is basically the ceiling in this kind of task very, very few people can score higher than that.

From multiple online iq tests ranging from 130-143.

Do you remember which you took? Not trying to say they're invalid or anything, just curious

 

[caff]

yo same stats, mensa norway right?
did you get 142 on it when you were like 11 or 12?

142 is crazy. ive took it 3 times online in 2 years and i got a 128 average. my highest one was 131.

in recent times i got 133 on mensa denmark but thats as far as ive gotten now
may allah jesus and vishnu team up and make me smarter

Blocked emotions. Your system doesn't feel safe enough to cry at the moment because it doesn't yet perceive the threat to be over. This is called trauma. I haven't read your post yet but breakups can be traumatic. To clarify, I'm not suggesting you should feel anything in particular at the moment, trauma is processed how it's processed, and that may be through active efforts to redress harm or maybe you need to just sit with how you feel and things will work themselves out over time. The important thing is to not judge yourself for how you're feeling, because judgement is not safety and we only express sensitive emotions when we feel safe.

Goatis explains it quite well.
