We have grown up

I often hear neighbors complimenting people:

"Look at this kid's head.

How big,

I guarantee you’ll be smart when you grow up!”

This makes people wonder

Does it really mean that people with a big head are smarter?

For every parent

The Greatest Hope

Nothing is better than having your baby healthy and smart

so

Many parents

From the birth of the child

Pay special attention to the size of his head.

So

Is there any scientific basis for this statement?

Let’s reveal it together below!

It turns out that it is incorrect to determine intelligence based solely on the size of the head.

All I can say is that if you have a big head, your brain capacity will be larger and it will contain more brain cells, such as neurons, myelin cells, etc., but this does not mean that you are smart.

The factor that determines whether a person is smart or not is the number of neuronal connections in the brain.

The more links a person has, the stronger his thinking ability and creativity are, and his intelligence is higher than that of people with fewer links.

In addition to quantity, quality is also important. As long as you repeat it frequently, think about it for a long time and are good at finding methods, the neural connections in the relevant areas will become thicker, and the thinking reaction in this area will be faster.

So, having a big head is not enough, you have to use your brain more~
