Children with high IQs more likely to use drugs as teens, adults

The results may seem surprising at first glance, but the researchers noted that they do fit some established patterns. “High-IQ individuals have also been shown to score highly on tests of stimulation seeking and openness to experience,” they wrote, and it could be that “illegal drugs are better at fulfilling a desire for novelty and stimulation.”

What’s funny is now all people who use drugs will think they have a high IQ.
