The behavior of smart individuals-from presidents to prosecutors to professors-is at times so amazingly stupid as to seem inexplicable. Why do otherwise intelligent people think and behave in ways so stupid that they sometimes destroy their livelihoods or even their lives? This book is the first devoted to investigating what the most current psychological research can tell us about stupidity in everyday life. The contributors to the volume, renowned scholars in various areas of human intelligence, present fascinating examples of people messing up their lives, and they offer insights into the reasons for such behavior. From a variety of perspectives, the contributors discuss:? The nature and theory of stupidity? How stupidity contributes to stupid behavior? Whether stupidity is measurable. While many millions of dollars are spent each year on intelligence research and testing to determine who has the ability to succeed, next to nothing is spent to determine who will make use of their intelligence and not squander it by behaving stupidly. Why Smart People Can Be So Stupid focuses on the neglected side of this discussion, reviewing the full range of theory and research on stupid behavior and analyzing what it tells us about how people can avoid stupidity and its devastating consequences. 606 $aIntellect 606 $aStupidity 606 $aErrors 606 $aConduct of life 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aIntellect. 615 0$aStupidity. 615 0$aErrors. 615 0$aConduct of life. 676 $a153.9 701 $aSternberg$b Robert J$062274 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451848103321 996 $aWhy smart people can be so stupid$92487516 997 $aUNINA
