Do you think, age is factor intelligence or not?

I think , age is not factor of intellect. Average child intelligence is equal average adult intelligence.
Intelligence is processus reflexion and raisonnement. Yes, adult know more, but adult think no more rapidity.
The adult wins because he already knows the answer.
However, if a child and an adult are put in a labyrinth and asked the question Why is the Sun in the Universe, then the child and the adult will have to analyze the world themselves, without having ready-made knowledge.
Children can trick adults.
Children may mature before their age, such as during times of war.
And before death, the child writes wise words that are available only to older people.
Child is inferior in adult because people create age limit.
Child don t interessed in work.
Potentially child is not inferior adult.

Also, but is other question , I believe, ordinal people can become genius.

Let’s hope that age would equate to experience.
Intelligence is a broad term. IQ refers to performance a specific group of tests to determine a composite score.

Intelligence testing is grouped by age, if I am not mistaken, most tests have a cut off of 13 for younger people. Another test would be more appropriate for adults.

Genius is not an across the board designation.
Some people are a strong visual spatial ability for example.

Testing has its place, it is import to remember that tests are flawed. There are biases built in to some.

Human brain development, particularly in young men can impact decision making. That can be quantified by the number of driving mistakes made.

@SW-User need ask child about eq test for adult. Maybe child can solve iq test for adult but child need to be interessted.
Experience...
So.
Child also can work.
And child have experience superior than other kids and superior than other adult.
And child can work hard, day and night and beatle adult ( in theory. But " wonderkind" exist).

@SW-User experience is not age.
Experience is time and work.
5 years old you can just learn 1, 2, 3 or you can 2+2,34-12 etc. You can surpass age catery
So
Age is not factor intellect and perfection.

@LegendarySpark apologies, I didn’t realize I was responding to someone who had direct experience with evaluation and measurement .
Not that I have been applying testing results for the past 13 years.

@SW-User Great things can be done at any age. You can create a musical masterpiece at the age of 6, through debt labor, or you can write music from time to time and only at the age of 25 compose a masterpiece.
At 10 years old, you can gain a lot of experience, ahead of many older people. Age is not the main thing. The main soul.


Yes. Because I think that, since I was 5 years old. I am serius. From this age I think that and I will be prouve, it is real.
