Have you ever noticed how high IQ individuals almost spend zero time listening to music every day, whilst midwits and low IQs tend to always put something on? Now peer-reviewed science has proven that there's a heavy link between listening to music for "sensation seeking" and being retarded.

interesting, it could be that reinforcing the neural networks for strong emotions uses energy and resources from the limited pool available to the brain, which could otherwise be dedicated to reinforcing analytic/reasoning networks.

There are studies saying intelligent people listen to music, there are studies saying that intelligent people don't listen to music. If you had real intelligence you would know that u can't trust the replication crisis science article industry. The intelligent people listen to music when they want to and it depends on which genre. People who listen to classical like Bach are usually more intelligent. people who listen to pop are usually more dumb. It's just obvious from observing reality.

As someone who got into Mensa I used to listen to challenging music until I realised how pointless it is to challenge myself with a passive activity, and now I listen to kpop and video game music while playing challenging video games instead, because with them, you have to physically participate to overcome the challenge, and there's a clear finish line to it, whilst for a Bach fugue, you just sit there and try to focus until you get it, but you can't prove that you get it so there's not even a difference between posers and people who actually overcame the challenge of understanding the fugue, and all you get for learning to appreciate the fugue is the same as from a pop song, you listen to it a few times before it gets old and your mind needs a new song. Does this sound retarded?

I’m a genius and I rarely listen to music. I only listen to it in the car, but half of the time I’m usually driving in silence. I never listen to music while I study or shower or work out etc. and I’ve always never really understood it. However there was one time in college when I was depressed because I hated my courses and I would take long showers in the dark sitting in the tub listening to grunge and sad rap and shit. That was obviously to drown out my negative emotions. And I think that’s how I perceive others when they listen to music: they are drowning out their emotions/thoughts. Maybe because they have no thoughts to begin with. This could all be related to introversion and extroversion: the introverts have a richer “inner world” so they avoid things that will overstimulate them.

>>16271963
what the fuck is going on with the x-axis? why are all the MMRSS score values allergic to 1.5, 2.5, 3.5, etc.? it's clearly not divided into thirds, as it should ostensibly be, or quarters (and just avoiding midpoints between integer values for some reason).
the questionnaire they used only has a 5-point Likert scale, why are they extending the x-axis to 6 (which visually displays a greater slope than the data actually contains)? ...where are they getting the non-integer values from, and if they're an average across multiple questions, why aren't they evenly spaced?

Maybe if they were to associate with each other in a constructive way, but by all appearances, they insist on coagulating, metastasizing as two sides debating on how shit/great science is, on a child's cartoon basket weaving forum no less.

I'd call myself an intellectual and I'm moderately smart, though not a genius (IQ somewhere around 150), and I fully agree with the study. I never enjoyed music. It's just annoying noise to me. Never did I experience the need to listen to music. I prefer silence so I can concentrate on my own thoughts. I actively hate loud music and the NPCs who listen to it. Those animals need constant auditory stimulation because they have nothing going on inside their heads.

I mean... there is great value in multidisciplinarity. Room for a great composer to have a narrow mastery of music composition while grasping the big useful ideas of other disciplines.( or the inverse of something like a physicist or lawyer who understands the big ideas of music).
It's a legal gray area regarding music 'listeners' given the new thought control handicap devices out.

There are some definitive rebukes to sample size argument depending on the nature of the study. At the same time, large sample sizes may be insufficient for some cases depending on study purpose and intent. For example, mRNA studies were underpowered for at-risk demographics. Which is irrelevant for jabbies because they take experimental gene therapy when testing is done on a handful of rats.

There is history written by all sides, it's just the winners history that is generally promoted after the fact.
For instance the "civil war" has incredible depth of history from the "losing" side. So I quibble with the trite phrasing and what it suggests.
The phrase itself is a tool of repression against alternate writings and histories.
At least you answered the first part generally and didn't avoid the question.
I exampled my store specifically because of its nature of being a likely candidate for intellectual achievement by some, while not by others.
It was the middle ground between my business (not generally considered) and my wife being a neurologist (generally considerd so).
Midwits can't even though.

So to get a proper view of history, you would have to read all sides with an awareness of each set of biases and try to distill the truth out of the fog?
Really though, anyone who's apparently concerned about whether your accomplishments rise to their standards (arbitrary or not) can probably just be ignored and dismissed outright. That kind of criticism almost never comes from an honest place anyways.

I'm directly discussing a topic for interest sake and for some reason there are people that have a hard time defining terms when defining terms is generally considered QUITE important.

Math major with adhd here. I dont agree with the anhedonia with music here as it primarily stimulates my thoughts, which are random and spontaneous. I mostly listen to the same music ive been listening to for the past 2 years while studying though. I dont actively focus on the music, its just there to keep the background processes of my brain in check to minimize distraction.

Yeah, it's a cope for a lack of real accomplishments. I used to feel some of that and a sense of ennui from a lack of meaningful work. Then I went back to school for CS, got a 4.0 in community college taking all the hard science and math classes, then transferred to a top UC and graduated magna cum laude. I now work at a research institute, and have been managing my finances quite successfully. Naturally I feel quite secure in my choices and capabilities.

You mean you haven't had your IQ actually tested? No wonder you believe yourself to be in the 150 and still feel only moderately smart. At 150 IQ there is like no room on the planet in which you aren't at least solidly above average. There are just too few 150 IQ fuckers around for that to be different.
You are probably in the 120s. Or an autist and have grinded IQ tests.
Shit, I scored 150 ish on Ravens too and my professionally administered IQ test came out 20 IQ lower.

150 IQ is only just over 3 SDs above the middle.
About 3/1000 smart.
Really not that high and there are plenty of them around.
I live in podunk and that still leaves about 20 in my town and that sounds about right. I'd say there is no advantage in anything "meaningful" past this level though.
Also, depends on your goals. A lot of people look stupid, but are quite intelligent if you examine their actual intentions.

None of these academics can seem to decide what makes you smarter or dumber. I listen to music in order to conjure memories, get inspiration, to change emotional states, or to enhance and existing atmosphere for a few minutes a day at most (when driving, there can be exceptions). I turn that shit off quickly as soon as the task becomes less a tedious repition of motor functions and more something that actually requires you to focus and process a thought. Sometimes it's nice to just not have constant vibrations rattling your brain.
You may as well have titled the study "people need to turn off the racket in order to focus on important matters". Wow, who would have thought.

I am mid at best. I find listening to music while enjoyable at that moment, later after I stop I get a feeling of strong mental fatigue. I've thought about this and tried analyzing the entire process and I've found that listening to music is mental work, it requires brain to process and understand music (because it's not just random information, it's ordered). If I am thinking of something then listening to music will be similar to trying to multitask, to think about two or three things at same time by splitting attention.
