>correlation is not causation. statistics 101
I specifically said those with high intelligence are *less likely* to experience emotional dysregulation disorders for this reason. I didn't say it was particularly because of their intelligence; I just pointed out the correlation.
But also, in this specific context, causation is evidenced and explained with data. Correlation doesn't always equal causation, but also it's not impossible to prove causation. So now I am saying it.
Please read the study. The entire thing is available to you for free.
>obviously if you manage your emotions and deal with stress better you'll be better at problem solving, because those emotions preclude being able to use the full extent of your cognitive ability.
And heightened intelligence grants you the better ability to manage those emotions and, ostensibly, solve problems, per the study I linked.
>this is still just nitpicking definitions and drawing conclusions that are far more sweeping and general (and suited to your agenda) than even those of the studies themselves
I'm essentially just reading to you the information that the study relays. There's no arbitrary nitpicking going on here. I'm just sharing to you what the information says.
