英國(guó)倫敦大學(xué)學(xué)院一項(xiàng)針對(duì)6800余人的研究顯示，智商低的人比智商高的人更容易不快樂。研究指出，低智商多與低收入和不良心理健康狀況相關(guān)聯(lián)，而這二者是導(dǎo)致不快樂的主要因素。研究人員呼吁對(duì)低智商人群提供更多的幫助和支持。在研究進(jìn)行的調(diào)查問題中，有一題為“綜合全局來看，你會(huì)用哪個(gè)狀態(tài)來形容你最近的日子：很快樂、一般快樂，還是不快樂？”回答“很快樂”的人群中43%的人智商都在120到129之間，而回答“不快樂”的人群中12%的人智商在70到79之間。該研究報(bào)告作者指出，對(duì)社會(huì)弱勢(shì)家庭背景的孩子進(jìn)行長(zhǎng)期深度指導(dǎo)不僅對(duì)其智商發(fā)展有利，而且有助于提高其健康和生活狀況。

People with lower intelligence are more likely to be unhappy than their brighter colleagues, according to UK researchers.
Their study of 6,870 people showed low intelligence was often linked with lower income and poor mental health, which contributed to unhappiness.
The researchers are calling for more help and support to be targeted at people with lower IQs.
Their findings were published in the journal Psychological Medicine.
The researchers, at University College London, analyzed data from the Adult Psychiatric Morbity Survey in England.
One of the questions was: "Taking all things together, how would you say you were these days - very happy, fairly happy or not too happy?" People's verbal IQ was also assessed.
The highest proportion saying they were "very happy" was found in people with an IQ between 120 and 129 - 43% said they were very happy.
However, the highest proportion saying "not too happy" - 12% - was found in people with an IQ between 70 and 79.
Dr Angela Hassiotis said: "People in the lower end of the normal spectrum are more likely to consider themselves not happy."
The study said lower intelligence was linked to lower income, worse health and needing help with daily life, such as shopping or housework - all of which contributed to unhappiness.
Dr Hassiotis said: "There is some evidence that long term intensive strategies directed at young children from socially deprived backgrounds can have a positive impact not only on IQ, but also on wellbeing and life opportunities.
"Such interventions are likely to be costly, but the initial costs may be offset by future benefits such as a reduced reliance on state benefits and better mental and physical health."
Dr Jonathan Campion, a consultant psychiatrist and director of public mental health at the South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust, said: "The study suggests that higher IQ appears to be associated with improved wellbeing, but that this relationship between IQ and wellbeing is partly due to higher IQ being linked with better income, health and less mental illness."
He added that the study was particularly helpful as it identified some of the factors that mediate the association between IQ and happiness, as well as highlighting interventions to prevent lower IQ leading to greater unhappiness.
