A new study may confirm the theory that smart people are spending much more time in idleness than those who work physically.
Scientists from the USA conducted a study that found people with high levels of mental activity, spend time in the shuffle. According to experts, these representatives just bored with the job, and they get lost in my thoughts. At the same time, people with active lifestyles who have to physically work at the enterprises employ almost all the time in mental activity.
The study’s author notes that the smart people there is a need to learn something new, performing identical actions becomes boring in time. If the representatives adapted to physical labor, can not do other chores, considering them difficult or no need for execution. To confirm this theory were invited 60 volunteers, half of which had high indices of mental activity. For seven days participants were asked to wear a wrist device that reads all data on human activity.
In the experiment it was found that smart participants are much more likely to sit back and lead an inactive lifestyle, than the other representatives. But it is worth noting that people with active daily activities often used the brain to solve problems.
