Mobile phone circle, fashion circle, PC circle, game circle, no matter which circle has its own disdain chain. On December 1, Royal Panda, a foreign research institution, released a research report on the IQ level of game platform players. We tested the average number of game players on five major platforms, including PC, PS4, Xbox, Switch and mobile phones.

Royal Panda's test set includes 1001 game players and technical users. The test method is to first ask the user's preferred game platform and recently played games, and then carry out intelligence performance in the following four aspects (the left column of the chart is linguistic intelligence, mathematical ability, logical reasoning and visual reasoning respectively).

The test results show that the average IQ of PC and PS4 players is the highest ↓, and the average IQ is 112.3 and 110.7 respectively; Xbox players in the middle, 103.8; The average IQ of switch and mobile phone players is 101.3 and 99.4

If accurate to the game category ↓, the player with the highest average IQ is Rainbow 6: Siege, with an average value of 120.3; Next are the players of Along Us and My World, 118.9 and 116.3 respectively. The average player of the classic game Angry Birds of that year was 95.8.

This type of test is a disaster area for fuze warfare, and the results are only for entertainment. There is no direct causal link between IQ and game preference, but "game preference" itself is a screening condition. The simpler the game is, the more suitable it is for young and old, and the more a large number of entry-level players help lower the average score. This result can also show the threshold and distribution of different games to a certain extent.

In addition, don't think that playing specific games can improve your IQ. The test results can only tell us that the average IQ of the group playing XX is higher (if the results are credible). It is this group that chooses the game, not the game that chooses the group.

For example, if you count the wealth of residents in different communities, the average wallet thickness of residents in Shenzhen Bay No. 1 will be greater, but moving there will not make you rich (a cruel and appropriate metaphor). Don't feel offended. Just like those loyal players of Angry Birds on Shenzhen Bay No. 1, we have no fluctuation at all.
