Air pollution causes ‘huge’ reduction in intelligence: study
It is interesting to me that they use years of education as a measure of intelligence.  As an American I am more used to thinking of intelligence as an innate, almost fixed characteristic (IQ).  In that view education increases knowledge and skills but isn't expected to much affect general intelligence.But to this article's authors, "intelligence" is increased by education, so harmful effects of pollution can be measured in years of education lost.Is there a general cultural difference in how intelligence is thought of in China as opposed to the US?
