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."
