Bulky Head, Brawny Brain
Study: Big Head Linked to High IQ

L O N D O N, Sept. 26 — New research shows that
being a fat-head may not be so bad after all.
Britain’s Independent newspaper reported today that
researchers from the University of Western Ontario had
found that people with big and in particular wide heads
tended to be more intelligent.
“A larger head size indicates greater intelligence,” the
team of psychologists said in the Personality and Individual
Differences journal.
They measured pairs of brothers aged between 20 and
35, noting the dimensions of their heads and then putting
them through a series of intelligence and cognition tests.
Although it is generally accepted that people with larger
brains can be more intelligent, the role of the head size itself
has been less well studied.
But if the fat-headed feel big-headed after the findings,
the news appears to be less good for the pointy-headed.
“Oddly, head height was negatively correlated with IQ,”
the Independent said.
