The phenomenon is not linear, nor is it homogeneous. The pressing question for global education, health, and governance systems is whether this reconfiguration leads to a more adaptive cognitive ecosystem—or instead exposes millions to functional impairment in an increasingly complex world.« (<a href="https://www.pressenza.com/2025/07/the-decline-of-the-intelligence-quotient-in-the-digital-age-cognitive-reconfiguration-and-global-trends/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">pressenza.com/2025/07/the-decl</span><span class="invisible">ine-of-the-intelligence-quotient-in-the-digital-age-cognitive-reconfiguration-and-global-trends/</span></a>)</p>
