Faces that are perceived as highly intelligent are rather prolonged with a broader distance between the eyes, a larger nose, a slight upturn to the corners of the mouth, and a sharper, pointing, less rounded chin.
The larger the pupils, the higher the intelligence, as measured by tests of reasoning, attention and memory.
So yes: On average, people with bigger heads tend to be more intelligent. (Great news for lollipop people.) Still, size alone doesn't tell the whole story. Research also shows that intelligence is not a function of how hard the brain works... but of how efficiently it works.
“In both sexes, a narrower face with a thinner chin and a larger prolonged nose characterizes the predicted stereotype of high-intelligence, while a rather oval and broader face with a massive chin and a smallish nose characterizes the prediction of low-intelligence.”
His general fitness factor (f-factor) model suggests that intelligence and physical attractiveness are positively correlated across individuals because both reflect the quality of their genes and developmental stability.
6 points above the average IQ score of 100 while beautiful women were 11.4 points above the norm .
Clever Eyes is a collection of experiments devised to come closer to the image of the invisible spirits culminating in the “greatest” spirit we often call god. It is a wunderkammer of the invisible in which each photo can be seen as an artefact of this taciturn realm.
Intelligent eye is an infrared sensor that sense movement in the room and automatically switches the air conditioner an energy-saving operation when no movement in detected, helping you save a lot on your utility bills.
A study published in the journal Sleep found that sleep is important for cognitive performance and that individuals who have better sleep quality tend to have higher intelligence scores.
Being a genius isn't as simple as being smart or having a high IQ. While intelligence is, of course, a prerequisite of genius status, there are other things at play here – including creativity, self-awareness, and an innate ability to ask questions few others have ever asked.
They inquire about everything, including themselves
Asking questions is a more fundamental aspect of intelligence. A person with intelligence doesn't hesitate to ask questions that others wouldn't even dare to ask or are frightened to doubt a thing.
Studies in adults suggest that intelligence in a sexual partner is something the majority of people value. Researchers asked adults to rank the attractiveness of potential partners based on IQ. They found that people rated an IQ of 120 — which is higher than 90% of the population — as the most attractive.
What's the difference between someone who's brilliant and someone who's a genius? The IQ score of 130-144 covers the brilliant while a genius is in the range 145-159. There's even “extraordinary genius” with an IQ of 160-175, for the Einsteins of this world.
According to Kleisner, “perceived intelligence is positively correlated with attractiveness in both men and women.” This isn't a huge surprise. People are drawn to, and influenced by, good looking humans.
Do they learn fast? These are the main indicators that someone is smart, perhaps even smarter than you. Just use yourself as a benchmark, and compare the other person's ability to perform these and other mental tasks consistently faster or slower than you.
You Believe Intelligence Is Sexier Than a Beach Bod
Sapiosexuals value an intelligent mind over a physically attractive body. So, if you're more interested in what a person's beliefs are, what they stand for, and you're excited to learn about their morals, values, interests, then you might be sapiosexual.
According to professor Bainbridge, men are only attracted to symmetrical features as they indicate a potential partner is young, healthy and has stable genes. The findings show that men value brains over beauty as they consider intelligence to be the most attractive quality in a long term partner.
A recent study of attraction to intelligence, called sapiosexuality, found that some people are more attracted to others who are intelligent. However, how intelligent they were made a big difference in the outcomes. The most sexually attractive people were those in the 90th percentile of IQ scores.
