The Type Of People You Hate Depends On How Smart You Are, Study Says | YourTango Added: Sep 7, 2025
The Type Of People You Hate Depends On How Smart You Are, Study Says
Site: YourTango
Who you hate is linked to your overall intelligence level.
It's easy to link intelligence with kindness, but let's be real here. We're all humans. Humans are judgmental and sometimes hateful. It's just part of our nature. What that means when it comes right down to it is that no matter where you fall on the I.Q. scale, we all have moments of weakness that make us just dislike certain people. As it turns out, that dislike might actually reflect your intelligence, and it's all about who you hate, not the fact that you feel the way you do. A study from Tilburg University , published in the journal Social Psychological and Personality Science, has found that prejudice may have to do with our overall intelligence. This basically reaffirms the theory that it may be human nature to dislike people who are different than us , especially those who don't look or think like us. A study found that the type of people you hate reflects how smart you are. For the study, researchers Mark Brandt and Jarret Crawford had 5,914 participants (a representative sample of the United States). The researchers first ascertained the subjects using a wordsum test (which is thought to be a good indicator of intelligence). Once the intelligence levels were determined, the participants were asked a series of questions that corresponded to two tests. Alena Darmel | Pexels The first test was "Who are the targets of prejudice?" The researchers grouped the targets into two categories: liberal / unconventional and conservative / conventional. "We replicate prior negative associations between cognitive ability and prejudice for groups who are perceived as liberal, unconventional, and having lower levels of choice over group membership," the authors said. "We find the opposite (i.e., positive associations), however, for groups perceived as conservative, conventional, and having higher levels of choice over group membership." The second test was "Who shows intergroup bias?" The researchers found that "people with both relatively higher and lower levels of cognitive ability show approximately equal levels of intergroup bias but toward different sets of groups." RELATED: The One Behavior That Seems Rude But Actually Means Someone’s Highly Intelligent Researchers found that the smartest people were more likely to hate those more conservative. It all sounds a bit confusing, but it actually makes a whole lot of sense. If you find yourself disliking someone, examine the reasons why you dislike them. Is it because of a trait or status that they have no ability to change, like their culture or sexual orientation? Or, is it because they have an opinion or a belief system that they have the capacity to alter, but choose not to, like believing that women shouldn't have the right to vote? Obviously, these are extreme examples, but they help clarify the study findings. In a nutshell, people who have lower cognitive ability tend to be prejudiced against non-conventional or liberal groups, as well as groups who have no choice in their status, such as people who are defined by their race or gender. On the other hand, individuals of higher intelligence were likely to be prejudiced against groups considered conventional and groups thought to have a choice in their associations, such as conservatives. RELATED: 5 Things Everyone Seems To Trust TikTok For That Smart People Would Never Even Consider Everyone, regardless of intelligence, engages in prejudiced behavior towards others. "People dislike people who are different from them," Brandt and Crawford told Broadly . "Derogating people with different worldviews can help people maintain the validity of their own worldview." George Milton | Pexels Brandt and Crawford referenced previous research that has shown that less intelligent people often essentialize or see different groups as being distinct from each other with clear boundaries and less of a threat. "On the flipside, people high in cognitive ability express more prejudice against high-choice [conservative] groups," Brandt and Crawford said. "They may be especially angered by groups that they think should be able to change their minds." Hate obviously has strong connotations of negativity, but it's also a fact of life. Human behavior makes us hardwired to dislike some people, whether they wronged us personally or their beliefs and mere existence make us feel threatened in some way. What this study ultimately proves is that before blindly fueling that hateful emotion, the better option is to take a moment and really think about why you feel the way you do. Then put yourself in the other person's shoes and try to understand their motivations. It might not make you suddenly like them, but if we can begin to understand the why behind this negative emotion, it's certainly a step in the right direction.

Science Says People With This Quality Are Wired for Higher Intelligence
Site: YourTango
This innate quality might just be a sign you're smarter than the average bear.
What would you do if someone said to you, "Be funny — right now?" Would you immediately come up with a comedic gold joke or a hilarious story? Funny on demand isn't that easy. You might be funny when you're with your friends, but you're shy about cracking jokes with strangers. Are you someone who appreciates humor more when someone else is the source of the funny, rather than being the laugh-bringer, yourself? For years, we've associated intelligence with serious, scholarly pursuits. The stereotype of the brilliant but humorless academic has shaped how we think about cognitive ability. But it has been revealed that some of the smartest people among us might be the ones cracking jokes at the office, finding the perfect witty comeback, or simply appreciating the absurdity of everyday life. Science says people who are funny and appreciate humor are wired for above-average intelligence. In a study, researchers Gil Greengross and Geoffrey Miller , both from the University of New Mexico, and Rod. A. Martin from the University of Western Ontario studied a group of college students and asked them to perform a humorous task by creating made-up profiles of people based on some basic information. The study participants then rated how funny the other participant's answers were, and were asked to complete tests of general intelligence , openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, sociability, and neuroticism. RELATED: The Secret Reason Men Are Obsessed With Funny Women Yuri A / Shutterstock The researchers found that general intelligence was a strong predictor of humor, independent of the other variables. The researchers concluded that humor is a sign of underlying cognitive ability and fitness . In another study conducted by William E. Hauck and John W. Thomas of Bucknell University, the researchers studied 3 variables: creativity, intelligence, and a sense of humor. They found that while creativity and intelligence were independent of each other, humor related to both creativity and intelligence . There are many different types of humor: slapstick, deadpan, dirty, topical, dark, satire, parody, and surreal. Some take a higher degree of intelligence to appreciate than others, like satire. Satire is one of the most difficult types of humor because it relies on intelligence to be successful. The comedian Amy Schumer, who's funny in many different ways, is extremely gifted at satire, for instance. Her parody sketch 12 Angry Men was one of the funniest sketches on television all year. It took smarts both to write it and enjoy it, as there were many elements needed to fully appreciate it. RELATED: 11 Behaviors That Seem Rude But Are Actually Signs Of A Highly Intelligent Person It was a take-off of a 1957 black and white televised play , commenting on how actresses are judged on their looks or their "bang-ability," and it highlighted the misogyny that tends to be an undercurrent in Hollywood. Did you have to understand all those things to find it funny? No, but having the intelligence to recognize these things made the humor even funnier. You can't make fun of something if you don't understand it first, and it takes creativity to use the right kind of platform for its funniness. Stephen Hawking, one of the most brilliant, intelligent scientists in the world, is known for his sharp sense of humor. Coincidence? I think not. It's more likely that funny people are just plain smarter.
