Assess thyself

I can think of one thing that is better than being outside on a beautiful sunny day but even that can be done outside in the right circumstances.

Taking sedatives, to bolster latent inhibition.

It will palliate the the depression that results from cognitive ineptitude, but it won't cure said ineptitude.

So? Is that an excuse to sit on your computer talking to a bunch of creepy old people instead of walking fatty mcfatson? Still sounds like you'd feel better.

Eating warm pies?

That is not what I was thinking about.

 

[CarpCharacin]

Meh. That's the govt saying that. One thing I know for absolute positive certain is this: the govt should stay out of the health field because they A.L.W.A.Y.S. get it as wrong as it's possible to get it. No exceptions. No. Not one.

But past errors don't necessarily discredit the data which suggests that cortical thickness is associated with psychometric g.

I'll probably get outside more as the weather warms up.

The same data can be used to support completely different conclusions. Far too many times the data is not what it should be because it was collected to support a preconceived idea rather than being collected without any bias.

What data do you know of which suggests that cortical thickness and intelligence are unrelated?

No. They're always wrong. I acknowledge that you're too young to KNOW this on your own. Nevertheless they ARE always wrong. Always. I am not talking hyperbole. And don't tell me cigarettes. They were wrong on cigarettes too, before they were forced to become right.

Since I don't care one whit about it, I am not going to do any research on it.
