If I'm not mistaken, the most widely used IQ test is the Raven's Progressive Matrices. How is taking English lessons or having been infected with Anglophonic memes going to help you guess which shape goes in the white box?:
If the first two shapes on the bottom are diamonds, why is the third shape a square?
I think that's meant as a field where you'd draw in the shape, diamond and all.
And what makes you sure of that? It even looks like the outline for the three boxes along the top.
Our cultural assumptions are perhaps more subtle than the average person thinks.
