What is the Flynn Effect
The Flynn effect is a theory which emphasizes the fact that average intelligence quotient (IQ) scores have risen over generations. James R. Flynn was the first person to systematically classify the IQ level comparison between successive generations.

A standard IQ test administered to people from various generations has conclusively proved the fact that there has been a linear and uninterrupted increase in the average human intellectual capabilities. These test scores were normalized for every study being conducted. Normalization gives the average score for a particular group of people. The same test was administered to the next generation and the normalized result was compared with the previous test. The results have confirmed a higher intelligence quotient (IQ) level. According to Flynn, these effects are due to a combination of factors which undergo a drastic change with each successive generation.
