Are you very lazy? Being lazy is a sign of great intelligence; read this study if it does not give you laziness
Scientists have finally done something important by confirming something we all expected ... Being lazy is a sign of greater intelligence. Why?
Well, apparently now there is a real reason why we can justify why we do not exercise or play sports. Our best answer will be: because we are smart (pinkie above).
An American research supports the theory that people with high IQs are not easily bored, so they are happy to spend more time thinking.
Scientists from Florida's Gulf Coast University decided to re-launch a test 30 years ago called 'the need for cognition' to see how their students responded to different scenarios.
The test required participants to rate how much they agreed with the statements, challenging their thinking skills and how necessary it is for each individual to think about their daily lives.
The statements included phrases such as "I really enjoy a task that involves coming up with new solutions to problems" and "I just think a lot about how I have to do it."
A selection of "thinkers" and "non-thinkers" were selected from among the respondents and their movements were tracked for a week to test their activity levels.
In an intriguing way, they found that 'thinkers' were much less active than 'non-thinkers', although their weekend activity showed no difference between the two.
Their findings were described as "highly significant" and "robust" in the Journal of Health Psychology, although the reason for their shared activity levels over a weekend has not been explained.
Attention!
This can be an interesting result, since being smarter is something that is very good, but it could have negative impacts on a person's health, especially if they are prone to extreme laziness.
The British Psychological Society said:
"Ultimately, an important factor that can help more thoughtful individuals to combat their low activity levels is awareness."
"I mean to think more about their tendency to be less active, along with an awareness associated with the cost of inactivity. More thoughtful people can choose to be more active. "
Rays! Everything was going so well.
The conclusion is that if you are lazy and addicted to lying down without having anything to do, then yes, you are a very intelligent person, but Science says that you are smart enough to know that you have to do something. I mean, what's up?
