abstract
  • In population genetics, dysgenics is a term describing the progressive evolutionary "weakening" or genetic deterioration of a population of organisms relative to their environment, often due to relaxation of natural selection or the occurrence of negative selection. The antonym of dysgenic is eugenic (see also eugenics). On the basis of numerous studies carried out over the past few decades, genotypic IQ is estimated to be declining at a rate between 0.57 and 1.6 points per generation throughout the United States (and possibly faster throughout the African-American subpopulation). Note that during this time, phenotypic IQ has been rising due to the Flynn Effect.
