encephalization quotient

Also known as "brain-to-body mass ratio", this term commonly abbreviated as EQ refers to the ratio between the actual or measured brain size of a species to the size predicted in reference to its body mass. Please note that modern humans (Homo sapiens) have an EQ between 6 and 7, meaning that our brain mass is typically 6 times greater than that of a typical mammal.

Did you know that humans have an EQ (encephalization quotient) of 6 to 7? That means our brains are way bigger than what you’d expect for our body size, which helps explain why we’re so good at thinking outside the box.

BS Quotient

The level of ability to identify false information, lies, half-truths, misinformation, mistaken information, disinformation and other nonsense that is inaccurate, misleading, deceptive or harmful. Also known as BQ, which stands for B.S. Quotient or Bullshit Quotient.

"Man, with her high BS Quotient or BQ she is hard to trick because she checks original information sources to verify claims of politicians, salespersons, online scammers and her mother-in-law."

"His low BQ or inability to sort facts from fiction makes him susceptible to being scammed or believing in conspiracy theories."

"Just like having a high IQ (Intelligence Quotient), or EQ (Emotional Quotient), a high BQ (BS Quotient) - the ability to detect misleading information - improves life outcomes."
