Higher intelligence associated with "thinking like an economist"
- Padura 16y agoHuh, I don't understand.There are so many economists with conflicting views. Do they imply free market economists are smarter than the others?
- goalieca 16y agoPeople with higher intelligence are more likely to see the world analytically as some complex (optimization?) system. People with lower intelligence will just say "invisible hand" and "free market" and write articles about how people who "get it" share certain political views.
- bhiggins 16y agostrange, I find many economists dogmatic and heartless.
- bhoung 16y agoThe research is probably accurate but not surprising for an economist to discover this. Confirmation bias at work I suspect.
