The study, published in BMC Psychology, asked 1,763 adults to complete a survey regarding their attitudes toward celebrities, and complete a set of cognitive tasks to determine their intelligence. The team found a “direct association between celebrity worship and poorer performance on cognitive tests,” but were unable to determine the cause and effect of the link. “Although our research does not prove that developing a powerful obsession with one’s favorite celebrity causes one to score lower on cognitive tests, it suggests that it might be wise to carefully monitor feelings for [them],” the researchers said. So there you have it, folks. That friend who’s excessively interested in what that one supermodel ate one day may actually be less intelligent—we just don’t know what came first.」11月4日 1時03分
