IQ

Having a high IQ may have its drawbacks: a new study finds that highly intelligent children are more likely to try illegal drugs in their teenage and adult years. The work is published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health. An ongoing study that started in 1970 gathered data from 8,000 people, including their IQ test scores at ages five and ten. Participants later reported their history of illicit drug use at age 16, and then again at age 30. Men with high childhood IQs were 50% more likely to use drugs than their low-scoring counterparts. And women with high scores were more than twice as likely to have tried controlled substances. What draws children with high IQs to eventually try drugs? The study's authors point out that drugs could serve as a coping mechanism for intelligent children who stand out from their classmates and become targets for teasing. In addition, intelligent people tend to pursue new, stimulating experiences to stave off boredom. Meaning that an IQ being high could be a gateway to getting high.
智商高也不一定就什么都好。一项新的研究发现高智商的孩子更容易在青春期和成人期尝试毒品。这项研究发表于流行病学与社区健康期刊。 一项始于1970年的研究收集了8000人的数据资料,包括他们在5岁、10岁时的智商。被试之后报告他们16岁以及30岁时服用毒品的情况。 儿时拥有高智商的男性尝试毒品的几率要比智商逊色的男性高50%。高智商女性使用控制药物的几率则要比其他女性高2倍。(controlled substances:[美国英语]控制物(指法律限制使用的某些使人成瘾的药物),控制药物,受控麻醉品(法律规定限制占有和使用这类毒品) 是神马让聪明孩子最终走向“毒品”的呢?论文作者指出,由于聪明孩子出类拔萃,因而成为嘲弄对象,所以他们借“毒品”浇愁。另外,高智商的人倾向于追求新鲜刺激来打发无聊。这就意味着要想high需要高智商哦,亲!
