So the societal elites who were vested in the existing economic structure of UK before Brexit were opposed to leaving the EU. What’s so surprising about that?

Higher cognitive ability linked to higher chance of having voted against Brexit

Using similar logic, cognitive ability is linked to higher chance of having voted for Biden. Of for having supported Bin-Laden or for supporting ISIS or for supporting the holocaust.

[Alvin Diogenes]

Higher cognitive ability is correlated with having attended university, which is (over the past generation or two) correlated with having been exposed to left-wing indoctrination.

Codswallop! How completely absurd and stupid!

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

So smarter people were more likely to vote to remain enslaved to Brussels? So much for intellectuals.

[AndyTheBear]

Hmmm, seems like its a play with the numbers til we get the result we want kinda study:

The researchers statistically accounted for other factors that could also be linked to voting decisions, such as socioeconomic and sociodemographic traits, political preferences, and a widely studied set of personality traits known as the Big Five.

Yeah, adjust and adjust....

[rktman]

Well, that means it was the opposite.

It’s amazing how these people always find exactly what they expected to find. It’s almost as if they think that smart people will be exactly like them.

Yeesh.

The study assessed cognitive ability as opposition to Brexit. A 100% correlation was found.

[jonrick46]

This association of intelligence and pro-Brexit thinking is all coincidence. This is what happens when you don’t design the survey properly.

ReMoaners are still really bitter.

[momincombatboots]

Just like smart cars and smart water! Aren’t we glad our betters are so darned smart. It’s time to jettison smart and go back to wise. Wise infers making great decisions based on diligent reason and experience. Outcomes are better with wisdom than intellect. I literally had an employee tell me his IQ was 150… he is simply unable to live daily life without tantrums and tirades… it’s really pitiful that he thinks so highly of himself and everyone around him is just laughing at his clear inability to cope in a normal work environment.

[SauronOfMordor]

Translation: higher IQ people were more likely to work in professions that would be adversely affected by BRexit, like the financial industry.

[Fresh Wind]

Why don’t they just come out and say that liberals are much smarter than normal people?

[Gaffer]

The Authors claimed “no specific funding for this study.” So I’m guessing they’re just paid full time by the government to be its resident academic lackeys. I do, however, believe where they erred will eventually get out and ruin their work. They used only heterosexual couples as its test subjects. When LGBTQs find out they gonna be pissed.

[lurk]

Ah, the effluent smug of the educated.

[norwaypinesavage]

This demonstrates that cognitive ability and intelligence are not the same. In fact, they may even be inversely correlated.
