智商影响生活 10个让你不爽的真相
We'd like to think that IQ isn't the determining factor for success in life.
我们会觉得智商并不是成功的决定性因素。
This is a bummer for many of us who want to believe that putting in the work will yieldsuccessful results. And not to say it doesn't: it just can't compete with outrightintelligence.
相信我们很多人都有这样不愉快的经历，以为努力投入工作就能收获成功的结果，但往往事与愿违。并不是说努力就不会成功，只是后天的努力无法与天生的智力竞争而已。
As it turns out, many factors throughout our lives affect our IQ scores —and conversely, our IQ scores can greatly affect the outcome of our lives.
事实证明，生活中有很多因素影响着我们的智商分数，反过来，我们的智商分数也在很大程度上影响着我们的生活。
1. Genetics make up an estimated 40 to 80% of a person's IQ.
遗传基因估计决定一个人40%-80%的智商。
Despite the environmental effects on IQ, heritability still plays a bigger role in determining overall IQ.
尽管环境对智商有很大影响，但遗传还是起着更重要的决定影响。
2. Contrary to popular belief, the higher your IQ, the more likely you're socially smart.
与普遍观点相反，智商越高，你的社交能力越强。
IQ is strongly correlated to educational, professional, economic and social success or failure.
智商的高低与教育、职业、经济和社会成就有着非常密切的关系。
3. Junk food diets for kids under three can lead to lower IQs.
三岁以下的儿童吃垃圾食品会导致智商较低。
Children who ate processed junk foods before the age of three were shown to have a lower IQ than their peers. A diet rich in vitamins and minerals was shown to do the opposite.
三岁前常吃精加工的垃圾食品的孩子会比同龄人的智商要低。富含维他命和矿物质的食品则有利于发展儿童智力。
4. Breastfeeding can increase a child's IQ by three to eight points.
母乳喂养会将儿童的智商得分提高3到8分。
Going beyond the control factors of a baby's closeness with their mother during breastfeeding, children who are breastfed have an IQ three to eight points higher by age three than their non-breastfed peers.
母乳喂养的益处远不止增加母亲与孩子间的亲密感，母乳喂养的孩子到三岁时会比没有母乳喂养的同龄人智商得分高出3到8分。
5. Summer vacation can drop your IQ.
暑假会让你的智商下降。
Missing school in general means a lower overall score. And separate studies saw drops in a student's end-of-the-year IQ score after summer vacation.
不上学一般就意味着智商得分较低。有很多研究都发现学生们的智商得分在暑假后会下降。
6. People with a lower-than-average IQ (between 75 and 90) are more likely to drop out, go to jail and live in poverty.
智商低于平均值（75到90）的人辍学、进监狱和生活贫困的可能性更大。
7. For each one-point increase in a country’s average IQ, the per capita GDP was $229 higher, and can go up to $468 higher for each additional point.
一个国家的平均智商值每增加一分，人均国民生产总值就会高出229美元，增加值甚至可以高达468美元。
8. Lower IQ scores are linked to more suicidal feelings.
智商得分较低与自杀情绪有联系。
Low IQs can mean bad problem-solving abilities, which makes people less capable of dealing with stress in crisis situations.
智商较低意味着处理问题能力较差，会让人无法在危机情况下处理压力。
9. If you have an IQ of at least 115, you can do any job.
如果你智商得分达到115，那你什么工作都能干。
An IQ over 115 places no restrictions on what you can do. You can perform well in very complex or fluid jobs (such as management in an ambiguous, changing, unpredictable fields).
智商超过115，能力无极限，什么工作都能干好。就算是非常复杂不固定的工作（如在一个非常模稜两可、变化多端、难以预测的领域做管理工作），你也能够做得很好。
