So…. You didn’t read the article, and it shows. Maybe it is on to something.
For reference:
Gen Z is the first group to score lower than the generation before them. Their attention span, memory, reading and math skills, problem-solving abilities, and overall IQ are lower than those of millennials.
All of these things are quantifiable.

No that doesn’t make IQ a good measurement of intelligence. Volumes have been written on this and how it is more a measurement of one’s heritable environment. Source: I am a millennial with an above average IQ.
And again…. They tested for more than just IQ. Read the article. Try and understand it.

Literally no one has been arguing that iq is a good index. What are you ranting about
