They Said IQ Was Fixed—Until This IQ Blast Changed Everything For decades, the idea that intelligence, measured by IQ, is fixed has shaped education, parenting, and even self-perception. But recent breakthroughs in neuroscience and cognitive psychology have blown past that long-held belief—shattering the myth that IQ is a static measure. This breakthrough isn’t just a scientific shift; it’s a full-blown revolution changing how we view human potential. ### Why the Old IQ Narrative Held Tale The concept that intelligence is fixed gained traction in the early 20th century, fueled by early IQ tests developed to identify learning difficulties. These tests, while useful diagnostic tools, were often misappropriated to suggest innate, unchangeable intelligence. Over time, this idea influenced everything from school tracking systems to workplace hiring, reinforcing fixed mindset beliefs that limited opportunities.
