This unpleasant character trait betrays people with low intelligence
0
Sociologists revealed a character trait that indicates minor cognitive abilities of a person. In particular, the character of such people indicates a hidden low intelligence, because they present themselves as the kings of the world.
Studies have shown that narcissistic people, who sin with total self-indulgence, actually have very lame cognitive reflection. Literally, people with this character “fall” on questions with a trick, and cannot score enough IQ points.
As studies have shown, narcissists most often answered questions incorrectly, taking into account the most obvious answer, while the truth was hidden within. This is a violation of cognitive reflection.
As the author of the study, winner of the Schnobel Prize, Dr. Jonathan Fugelsang, explained, the whole point is a violation of reflective thinking. Narcissists fall for obvious, but wrong, answers. At the same time, their characteristic feature is an unshakable faith in their intelligence, which does not justify itself during a simple test.
