Intelligent people are more trusting of others than their less smart counterparts, researchers have claimed – because they are better judges of character, the Daily Mail of London reported. One explanation is that intelligent individuals are better at evaluating others' trustworthiness, meaning that they tend to form relationships with people who are unlikely to betray their trust. Another possible explanation is that intelligent individuals have a greater chance of interacting with people who are materially better-off, and who therefore have less to gain from acting untrustworthily.
据英国《每日邮报》报道，研究人员指出，智商高的人比智商平平的人更加信任他人，因为他们更善于看人。其中一种解释是聪明的人更善于分辨一个人是否值得信任，也就是说，他们倾向于和不会背叛自己的人交往。另一种说得过去的解释是聪明的人和物质上比较富裕的人做朋友的机会更多，而这些人不讲诚信将会得不偿失。
