Though scientists have suggested bigger brains are “smarter,” this study is the strongest case yet for a genetic connection to brain size and to IQ. Of course, brain size is not 100 percent correlated with a person’s intelligence, and other factors, includingconnections between brain cellsand...
Are Bigger Brains Smarter? Evidence from a Large-Scale Pre-Registered Studyintelligenceeducational attainmentbrain volumepre-registered analysisUK BiobankA positive relationship between brain volume and intelligence has been suspected since the 19th century and empirical studies seem to support this hypothesis...
In 2005, psychologist Michael McDaniel evaluated studies that used brain-imaging and standard intelligence tests and found that unequivocally, bigger brains correlated with smarter people [source: McDaniel]. Since males have the bigger brains, they must have the smarts, right? In one study, ...

Commonwealth University,bigger does mean smarter."For all ages and sex groups,"he says,"it is now very clear that intelligence has something to do with brain volume(容量)." McDaniel reached his conclusion after measuring the size and volume of 26brains with the help of some instruments.He...
Brain size seems to have nothing to do with scores on standardized intelligence tests, according to a brain-scan study of young children. Michael McDaniel, an industrial and organizational psychologist at Virginia Commonwealth University, has claimed that bigger brains domake for smarter people. Many...
Yes!In a new study done by Michael McDaniel,a psychologist at Virginia Commonwealth University,bigger does mean smarter.“For all ages and sex groups,”he says,“it is now very clear that intelligence(智力) has something to do with brain volume(容量).”...
Did you know that women's brains are smaller than men's? The average women's brain weighs 10% less than men's. Since research has shown that the bigger the brain, the cleverer the animal, men must be more intelligent(聪明的) than women. Right? Wrong. Men and women always score simi...
