The Easiest Ways to Identify Intelligent People

Scientists are saying that the intelligent people are the stereotype of the mad, lonely genius might actually have some basis in reality. According to a new research, intelligent people tend to crave ‘alone time’ and are happier

when alone even than with their close friends.

The research states that smart people may be far happier with their own company than meeting friends. Basically, if you are visiting someone clever, odds are, they’re probably waiting for you to finish your cup of tea and leave, they just won’t say it to your face.

Researchers from the LSE and Singapore Management University analysed data from a large survey involving 15,000 people, who also underwent IQ tests.

The scientists found out that , for most people,  they were happier the more ‘social’ their lives were.

But the opposite was true for high-IQ types, suggesting that they were happiest when alone.
