Asian Americans score higher than any other demographic group on standardized/cognitive tests. They are also the most educated ethnic group in the United States.

How long has this been the case?

I mean, given how Asians were once subjected to discrimination, I imagine that this was not always so…
And that their academic/intellectual success is a more recent phenomenon.

Is there any research/scholarship on this?
