Jakarta , people are usually not so short PD ( confident) when standing in line with his higher stature . Not only that , a new study also found that shorter people are also not smarter than the height .
Previous studies have identified other genetic link between height with intelligence or IQ level is the twin brother and the people who still have blood relations aka family , but this new study is the first to discover that the second connection based DNA markers in people who do not know each other .
This was revealed by a team of researchers from the University of Edinburgh , UK after analyzing genetic data from 6,815 men and women who took part in the Scottish Family Health Study between the years 2006-2011 .
" We find out whether there are genetic similarities based similarity relation to the height and level of intelligence or IQ . And we found there was little connection between the three, " said researcher Riccardo Marioni as quoted by the NY Daily News , Thursday ( 03/06/2014 ) .
But Marioni add another thing they found was a fairly large correlation between height with skill level , so the higher is also usually more clever . In addition , people who have both of these characteristics usually have a genetic variant that is almost the same .
Other studies also revealed height above average and higher IQ were both associated with better health conditions . For those who are short suspected high risk of cardiovascular disease , whereas those whose bodies have higher risk of death , heart disease , stroke and lower suicide .
Even so , there are also studies that tall people pretty damning . The study says women more higher cancer risk after menopause , and soldiers as well as shorter -bodied athletes who actually live longer than their counterparts higher .
