Shocking studies

so I was looking at nature vs nurture type stuff, seeing if IQ is genetic or environment (fyi it’s environment) and I wondered what drugs and alcohol do to IQ.

so I searched drugs and IQ and alcohol and IQ. they both increase IQ. stress has been proven to lower IQ so I guess I shouldn’t be so surprised something that relieves stress increases IQ. having lots of money also increases IQ, bill gates has a higher IQ than Einstein at 180.

lucky I don’t need good IQ to survive

I think the connection between drugs and iq is that people with high iq do drugs because it’s evolutionarily novel. Same with staying up late. I don’t think doing drugs makes you smart though, it’s just higher iq people are likely to use drugs.

I am sorry but this is not true.
I hope the moderators ban you(ban the user SugarCoatedTruth) because you are a troll.

These are association not causation studies.
The difference in HUGE
You are spreading FALSE INFORMATION. YOU ARE A TROLL.

you’re just mad IQ isn’t genetic. we all saw your post about Jewish people being superior.

YOU ARE SPREADING LIES

I have decided to ignore all further messages from this troll.


here’s you saying you’re superior.

OK, first of all, stop the fighting.
Second, @Erez_Shmerling is right in saying these are correlations and in no way imply causation. For example, money obviously does not increase your IQ, but it is correlated with a higher IQ. Learn the difference.
Third, IQ is determined both by genes and the environment.

I’m closing this thread as it is full of misinformation and has derailed into fighting.
