I have found the opposite to be true.

Tall people get social advantages of being tall, so they get lazy mentally. They can get by being tall so their mind gets lazy.

Furthemore, I find the view from above to be a view that is easier to analyze situations. And the view from below to be more challenging. So I think tall people’s minds are again less challenged.

Furthermore, I think tall people can move their legs slower to go the same distance. Slow moving legs would tend to produce slow moving brain reaction time.

I have made similar observations.

I also note that, on the evening news, the county's most wanted criminals are rarely under 6'.

well, I hate to break it to you, but I’m 6’2 and last time I wrote a bloody test, I scored a mark of 134.

However, I cannot attest to the validity of this research as I know plenty of folks who are a just a hair shorter than me, and they’re still smart too :P
