聰明人都這樣！

You're smarter ！

You're not easily distracted

不會輕易分心

Frank Zhu says "people who can focus for long stretches at a time and tune out distractions" are highly intelligent. As evidence, he points to a 2013 paper published in the journal Current Biology.

弗蘭克•朱說，智商高的人“有更強的專注力，不會輕易分心他顧。”他的證據是2013年發表在《當代生物學》雜志上的一篇論文。

The paper describes two small studies that found people with higher scores on an IQ test were slower to recognize large background movements in an image. That's likely because they focus on the most important information and filter out the rest.

那篇論文介紹了兩項小型研究，發現智商測試得分較高的人在識別較大的背景物移動行為時，速度反而較一般人慢。這很可能是因為他們習慣于把注意力放在最重要的信息上，并把其余部分過濾掉。

You're a night owl

夜貓子

The smarter you are, the more you're inclined to stay up into the wee hours of the morning, according to research.

研究發現，一個人越聰明，就越傾向于將睡眠時間推遲到凌晨之后。

One study, published in 2009 in the journal Personality and Individual Differences, looked at the link between childhood IQ and sleep habits among thousands of young adults. Sure enough, smarter individuals said they stayed up later and woke up later on both weekdays and weekends.

2009年發表在《個性與個體差異》雜志上的一項研究分析探討了數千名青年的童年智商和睡眠習慣之間的聯系。果然，無論平日還是周末，聰明的人都是晚睡晚起。

【知識點講解】
