The scientists from the universities of Indiana and Wisconsin conducted a study according to which, children with an increased interest in dinosaurs, have a higher level of intelligence. Thus, young paleontologists are distinguished by increased persistence, improved attention and complex thinking skills, which permit such children to process information better.
Also, scientists have found, that the passion for dinosaurs will help lovers of ancient animals to better cope with difficulties in adulthood, reports vokrugsveta.ru. However, an interest in dinosaurs is not the only sign of high intelligence in children. So, accordance with experts, another factor of an extraordinary mind may be the inability to sleep all night. As Professor Peter Fleming explained, “Babies are not designed for long periods of sleep. This is not good for children. There is absolutely no evidence, that there is any benefit from long sleep.”
