Because they are inarticulate in the presence of articulate officialdom, you do not respect them and habitually talk to them as though they are of lower intelligence than yourself.
Although some patients with a low agreement gave the impression of lower intelligence, this could not be substantiated by a lower educational level.
For instance, a larger proportion of DTI changes, around 85%, might be related to lower intelligence coefficient (IQ), as pointed by previous investigations [ 14].
Furthermore, increased maternal serum TSH is associated with lower intelligence and motor scores of the child [ 10, 28].
It has been suggested that this lower IQ may underlie cognitive dysfunctioning, or vice versa, that cognitive dysfunctioning is at the heart of a lower intelligence, or that there is no hierarchical relation between both domains but both domains share common causes [ 47- 49].
However, as the authors noted, the crimes did not generally involve aggression, and part (although not all) of the difference in criminality between XYY and comparison groups could be accounted for by the lower intelligence of the XYY males: someone of lower IQ may be more easily led and may be more likely to be caught if he commits a crime.
Otherwise, this individual is of normal intelligence and function (25).
The predictor variables were verbal intelligence, numerical intelligence, figural intelligence, response times and arcsin√p transformed rates of correct responses for both conditions (formulation, story).
This finding is in contrast to the general population, where lower intelligence is associated with higher rates of depression.
In utero VPA exposure is also associated with a risk of lower verbal intelligence quotient (IQ) in children, at ∼10 points lower than controls.
