You cannot drink yourself stupid. In fact, it’s the opposite. Stupid people are heavy drinker.
A study conducted by researchers from the Karolinska Institutet in Sweden showed that men with lower IQ consumed more alcohol than men with higher IQ.
It got to do with their cognitive ability, according to Sara Sjolund, a student at the institute and corresponding author for the study.
Cognition abilities have to do with how a person understands and reacts.
It is a set of skills or processes that are part of your actions.
They are brain-based skills needed to carry out any task from the simplest to the most complex. Cognition is a learning mechanism, how you learn to do and remember things and problem solving as compared to actual knowledge.
Other reasons why people got drank are, economic background and social status.
Normally stupid people are poor and they are at the lowest social ranking.
They may experience frustrations in life due to their economic and social conditions which in turn, leads to a bad choice of heavy drinking to drunk away their sorrows.
What the research found was a clear link between lower intelligence and heavy drinking.
But, this is just a study from one country covering a very small segment of the world population.
Anyway, related government agency can take note of these conditions affecting their uneducated and poor population.
