Question

This headline was intriguing and some links in the article lead to more on the subject. Unfortunately, I did not find the writing of great caliber. Not indepth enough to really answer questions about the study or to explain several conflicts in the results. Still, some interesting points to consider and maybe research further.

Answer 1

I feel like I'm drowning when I'm around a lot of people. The article was interesting - but the studied field 18-28 year old participants was too narrow for me. I also keep thinking of the "keeping up with Jones" syndrome that seems to rear its head when living in proximity with people where you can see what they have that you don't have. I just don't think the article was truly representative.

Answer 2

I raced through the article and my jump-to-conclusions interpretation is that smarter people can adapt better to groups (perhaps because they understand more about what people do and why), but can also handle time alone (perhaps because they have more cognitive flexibility and can figure out more ways to occupy their time). Do you think this is the gist of it?

Answer 3

Agree. Not exactly in-depth.
