When looking at a person the first thing you notice is their looks. How attractive this person may or may not be. While you are doing this you are also judging how intelligent this person is, based off of their looks. According to certain research data the more attractive you are, the smarter you will be as well. In this essay I will discuss the correlation between attractiveness and intelligence. Before this paper, I was a firm believer that the more attractive someone is the dumber they would be. Much like the whole dumb blonde stereotype. But now I find I'm somewhere in the middle. The research I collected made it appear that attractiveness equals intelligence. The more attractive you are the smarter you will be.
Interestingly enough reading Satoshi Kanzawa's article "Beautiful people really are more intelligent" its clear that there is a direct correlation between attractiveness and intelligence. In the article the study used is simple. It judges how well a student has done on a test and their correlating attractiveness. The students considered attractive performed better then the ones deemed unattractive. She references to a study done in England that followed all babies born during the week of March 3-9 1958, in Great Britain (England, Wales, and Scotland), and has followed them for more than half a century throughout their lives. The data that was collected in this study shows that 7,11 and 16 year olds, which are considered attractive, have a higher mean IQ then those considered unattractive. Although this study began nearly 60 years ago, it is a very in depth study. These children show that as a whole the more attractive ones out scored the unattractive by a 12.42 difference on the IQ scale, which is a reasonably large margin.
