New research suggests that attractive female college students accustomed to earning high grades in person aren’t making the same marks during remote learning.
A Swedish study, published in the journal Economics Letters, probed the impact of a student’s looks on their performance, both in the classroom and online.
The better their looks, the higher their grades for some in-person courses such as business and economics, according to the study. Courses like math and physics — where scoring is based more on tests than projects, speaking and reports — did not see the connection.
But when the courses were taught online, the grades of attractive females dropped.
Attractive male students — who, according to PsyPost, “tend to be more persistent and have a greater influence on their peers” — suffered no such setback.

LOL 😂😂😆🤣🤣🤣
Would that include using lotion to increase tan line demarcations for qualitative and quantitative analysis, because if so, I am interested in a research assistant position.
Shock Shock. They didn’t get the “Hot Girl Discount” when they didn’t show up in person.
This isn’t news to anyone. For young hot chicks, the world is their oyster. All they have to do is stand there and be hot and everything goes their way.
In IQ there are more men at the tails of the curve than women.
When in collage.
I had a classmate the was an very attractive blond.
Where I sat I would sometimes be given her tests to grade.
Her test scores were on the lower end of passing.
But she graduated in the upper part of the class.
I still love dumb blonds and burnettes... so did the study determine that FAT FINGERS hindered high grades?
I agree being attractive in both sexes is an advantage in school, work, and business. I would say, so what. Life isn’t fair. Everyone has positive and negative attributes (and not necessarily in equal proportions) and one should work with what they have instead of focusing on one’s group identity.
I disagree about the uniform mean and standard deviation of attributes by race and sex. The desire for such results has resulted in decisions that have been destructive for both individuals and nations.
But they earn more they go into politics D.
Betty’s HAWT! ;)
This whole "pit one group against the other", for anything and everything, is patently ridiculous and in some instances, used only to make one group superior to the other.
No matter what group/s one chooses to pit against another, it never truly examines the entire picture and has now led to the dreadful DEI garbage.
Do you think there are significant, high mental functions for which aptitude measurements have yet to be derived?
During WW II Duke University, in conjunction with all branches of the America military, did a study with married couples whose husbands were deployed and the wives were at home, to test ESP. Though I do know some of my parents' findings, I've never seen any of the studies, so am unable to talk about this, with any substantive facts/findings.
There are other such abilities, but neither have I any worthy knowledge to add, re your query.
The answer is that conventional measures as well as the standard understanding of intelligence are both significantly, if not severely inadequate.
One good measure of intelligence is beyond the reach of intelligence. It’s called outcome, and I’m not simply referring to things like employment or salary. A far more influential circumstance is outcome of interpersonal interactions.
When women are aware of God and untouched by the malignant control of their behavior by media and academia, they have ways of bringing favorable outcomes to these kinds of situations. The effect of interactions is multiplied across society and time.
These are abstract phenomena. But they make more of a difference than the cabal would have us realize.
Going backwards, to ancient and even Neolithic time, human beings, with advanced intelligence, were able to construct amazing edifices and yes, even a sort of mechanical "computer". And none of those people were Jewish or Christian, which is where you now introduced.
No matter WHAT you may "think", not every single topic reverts into a religious one.
I said nothing about religion.
Dirty Deeds
Done Dirt Cheap
Lets talk about intelligence AND your interjection of GOD!
Alan Turing was a brilliant, complicated man who happened to me a HOMOSEXUAL. At Bletchley, most of the his team were women, together they worked on breaking the AXIS coded messages, that enabled the West to win WW II. He also is now called "THE FATHER OF MODERN COMPUTERS", among many other advancements in computing, code breaking, as well as many other breakthroughs in scientific fields.
According to Jewish and Christian beliefs, homosexuality is a bad; however, there is no denying that Turing was extremely intelligent and that without his Enigma Machine, many more people would have been killed, WW II would have gone on much longer, many battles against the NAZIS would have been lost.
At that time, homosexuality was a punishable crime in the UK.Someone later "outed" Turing ( no, he was NOT flamboyant, nor am I now condoning or praising the fact that he was homosexual, so just do NOT go there! ), he was then summarily going to be put on trial and was harassed. And so, at his wit's end, he committed suicide. Yet another GOD decreed NO NO!
Ergo, you need to leave GOD out of any and all discourse re intelligence and IQ!
I can also give you many examples of supposedly devout, people, who nobody would call "intelligent"! But all of this, which only YOU have interjected into this thread, is meaningless to the topic!
God is not religion. Religion is behavior, usually in response to spiritual belief.
Anyone who treats homosexuals cruelly is violating God’s commandments. Don’t miss the significance of this point.
The simplest way to define intelligence is the ability to find truth.
You just keep digging that hole, that you put yourself in, even deeper!
So let me be even MORE clear, with a just as silly example, as you keep proposing.
There is a man or a woman ( it doesn't matter which sex ), with an IQ of 85. This person couldn't break a code, invent anything at all, devise a drug that would cure cancer, BUT...according to whatever YOU deem as a "righteous" life, is what this person exemplifies 100%. That individual is absolutely NOT all that "intelligent"...no matter WHAT you may claim!
Okay, the person may be very nice, well behaved; however, he or she is NOT INTELLIGENT, with an 85 IQ! Ergo...your argument is garbage!
Have there been/are there very EVIL people who are "intelligent"? ABSOLUTELY...and everything in between, as well!
