Puzzles are exciting games that require us to think logically, be patient, and be resourceful. Many people love to solve puzzles, considering them a great way to train their minds and develop intelligence. However, Israeli scientists have concluded that puzzles do not save from dementia.

The study was conducted at Tel Aviv University and involved analyzing data from more than 1,000 people of all ages and intelligence levels. The participants were tested for intelligence and then asked to solve several difficult puzzles.

It was expected that people with higher intelligence would be more successful in solving puzzles, while people with lower intelligence would have greater difficulty. However, the results of the study were unexpected.

Israeli scientists found that the level of intelligence has no direct impact on the ability to solve puzzles. People with high intelligence have not always been successful at solving complex problems, and people with low intelligence have sometimes shown surprising abilities in this area.

Instead, scientists have found that success in solving puzzles depends on other factors, such as creative thinking, the ability to think abstractly and the flexibility of the mind. People who have these qualities are often more successful in solving complex tasks, regardless of their level of intelligence.

This discovery has important practical implications. In the past, it was believed that solving puzzles could help in the development of intelligence and prevent dementia. However, Israeli scientists have shown that this is not the case. Puzzles can be great fun and a way to exercise the mind, but they are not a panacea for mental retardation.

Thus, an Israeli study confirms that intelligence is a complex concept that can only be limited by the ability to solve puzzles. It is important to develop both logical thinking and other qualities that contribute to the successful solution of complex tasks.
