I feel like I was at my smartest in terms of being to quickly creatively problem solve, retain information and reason at around 18-19. Feel like in some ways I'm now (age 27) smarter, especially linguistically, but generally I can feel myself getting duller as time goes on. Think work taking up a large part of my cognitive load is a big factor. I'm still pretty intellectually curious but at the end of a working day I'm now more likely to go for lighter forms of entertainment than I used to.

@TheMrMRsmoke Год назад

I believe “The more you know the more you dont know” thats because one might seek more knowledge and realise they know nothing in the process In teenage years you often only know just enough to feel smart, reinforced by being the smartest in your friend groups/schools but that might not enough to want to be smarter

@crispin9152 Год назад

I genuinely believe ages 16-45 are the smartest in terms of developing beneficial practices and ideas. Experience plays a huge role in life, but it can also skew a positive trajectory by “sticking to what you know.” In my career field, medicine, older providers are commonly on a downward trend due to them refusing to “update” their knowledge. If your experiences hinder you from adapting and growing, you are not the peak of intelligence.

@coolman6139 Год назад

this actually reminds of a study where kids, teens, and adults did a test from nasa themselves. Most adults failed, half of the teens failed, and most kids passed. The conclusion they came with is that kids have no consequences for making mistakes and don't fear them at all while teens have fear as they're more or less seen as adults while having creativity similar to a child. And adults get the short end of the stick as consequences for them messing up can be life changing. I'd recommend check out the home movies review from emp lemon as he goes into more detail about the Nasa experiment himself.

In my opinion, I think the peak intelligence for most people is the teenage years. It’s the transition between childhood and adulthood, it’s the time where kids are growing and learning to explore themselves and the world, the time where they form hobbies and be more responsible. It’s also the time where one realizes how vast the world actually is and how there is so much to learn and know. I’m not saying humans are the smartest when they are teens (def not), what I mean is that it’s the time where we actually learn new things and start exploring.

@salahuddinuddin5070 Год назад

Sounds good but 30 is the smartest age. Anyone younger has there brain less developed and less smart. The only reason they can learn and be creative easily is because they have a caretaker that constantly trains em and it’s socially unacceptable for adults to do stuff children do which makes em look more creative. But there brain is actually less developed and less smart. But after 30 people’s brains decline. So 30 is the smartest age.

@draheim90 8 месяцев назад

Your knowledge base will grow but your fluid abilities (things like spatial ability, processing speed, attention, working memory, reasoning) have already begun to decline since your early-to-mid 20. (when your frontal lobes fully developed). The decline is pretty slow until your 40s-50s. Google images for “fluid intelligence throughout lifespan” if you’re curious.

@gabrielgarcia7554 2 месяца назад

Likewise, although I am about to enter my 30s. I think having a passion to learn is what allows us to be better people as learning requires deep self reflection from learning from your mistakes. Attempting to learn subjects that you find difficult allows for a deeper understanding of yourself, your limitations and how you can work through them.

@PineappleLiar Год назад

Sitting at 25, I do feel like I’ve experienced some change since my teenage years, but also that I’ve carried particular modes of thought with me from my preteens all the way into adulthood (there are some parts of my childhood thought process I recall, but I feel like my internal monologue/dialogue was till developing then). But in some cases I’d say it’s situational to lifestyle more than my age, the two just happen to coincide. How I thought about certain things changed when I went to college, then they changed again when 2020 happened and I was at home, then they changed a third time when I got my first full time job. The synapses that fire and the thought processes you need every day change and so do the thoughts that go along with it. Idk just putting it out there.

@joey3354 Год назад

If I look back at my 29years of life, I would always pick the 29year old me. I think my ability to learn and concentrate only improves over time. Also the experience and amount of information I hold only increases. But I am only 29. I don't know if this is continuous. I do agree that at certain ages I had a better understanding of certain subjects. Languages and mathematics I never use degrade over time. But relearning those old skills is as easy as reading it once. It's the same as movies. There are movies I haven't seen since I was a child. But just watching the first 5min of that movie brings back the entire movie and information I processed. If aging continues like this, I think I will become a better version of myself. But the catch in this all is that I need a healthy brain and keep practicing my knowledge. My work is solving problems and I think this also has an influence on my brain.

@jocylinfrancis930 Год назад

I’m not an expert, but the older people I’ve talked to have said similar things. To them, the only bad thing about aging is your body decaying. Basically, brains seem to work on dragon logic, with older ones being far more powerful. Of course, getting “set in your ways” can be a problem, especially if society has changed too much. For instance, in America, racial segregation ended in 1964. That wasn’t too long ago, and I bet there’s still people who supported it that are still alive today. I don’t think I need to explain why failing to adapt past 1964 is problematic. But maybe there’s some self-fulfilling prophecy here. If you believe that you can get better, you will get better- and you can always learn new things. In fact, there is a gaming RU-vid channel run by an old lady who started gaming relatively recently. I forgot the name though. Honestly, as long as your brain doesn’t start to activity decay you should be fine.

@Amantducafe 8 месяцев назад

@@swanepoel4714 Immersion-based learning, i live in Spain and learning english was easy due to the amount of online resources to fully immerse yourself in the language. For the other languages i just had to gain the basics through traditional learning and then challenging myself by visiting said places and forcing myself to read, listen, speak and write in that targeted language. Ofcourse not everyone can afford to travel and live in another country but the internet is an amazing tool to organize yourself into a partially immersed experience. Simple things like changing language settings, watching youtube videos from that language, reading books in their original language and most importantly Discord with dedicated language learning channels to speak directly with people.

I am 18 now and the last two years of my high school were covid impacted and I was not able to study as well as I would have wanted to especially in my favorite subject I. E. Mathematics I am still doing a bachelor in mathematics in college but i feel that losing those two years will have a very high impact on my overall mental capacity of doing maths and logical puzzles later in life.

I felt most smartest at 4-6 years. At four I could read at two languages, count past 1 000, name a huge number of animals, remember the names of all planets, know how the earth is built, and keep up with third class in terms of math. And around 6 years of life I was able to keep up with fifth class math and read binary code. I still (eight class) benefit from it for example reading binary codes. Knowledge was who I am. But now in middle school I feel dumber. Sure, I am still smarter than the idiots around me, but now violence defines me in school. At least what I am at home doesn't changed

not necceserily, as there are several traps you might fall into, such as static thinking, unability to adapt or others and also mental diseases can play a part, like alzheimer or demencia which often come with age

The brain is a muscle, no matter the age if exercised often, you can be good at basically everything.

I actually think children are quite intelligent. Well, for me as a child i grew up hearing different languages a lot, from the tv and outside i heard english, and from my parents I heard a different one. But as your a baby, your brain picks up these languages but chooses the one that will be more functionable and needed for them to speak more fluently. For me, I picked up english faster, even though my family didnt (because they didnt grow up hearing english). And later on improved my mother tongue.

Huh well i always think that i learn a lot about of interesting stuff through youtube videos that I remember and bring up. Sometimes no one knows about it so i feel a bit smart in that way.

Well, it seems like everything boils down to virtue, everything is appropriate, everything is right, everything has its own perspective, fascinating

The tl;dw is that cognitive flexibility (an aspect of creativity) may be highest in children; “fluid” abilities (e.g., processing speed, reasoning, attention, working memory capacity, spatial ability) peak in our mid-20s; and crystalized abilities (e.g., knowledge) continue to increase throughout our life. So who to pick on your team depends on the nature of the game or test.
