摘要
Data are presented for intelligence in twelve regions in Turkey showing that intelligence is highest in the west and lowest in the east. The west-east intelligence gradient is significantly correlated with regional differences in educational attainment and per capita income and negatively correlated with fertility, infant mortality and the percentage of Kurds.
