In popular culture there seems to be a strong link between intelligence and cynicism,
But this did not start with some characters that we could meet in real life or on TV, in fact, far back in time, philosophers like Diogenes of Sinope and his student Crates of Thebes associated the cynical personality with wisdom and having a Clear vision of reality and not the dark and pessimistic one that cynics actually have.

In fact, cynicism is related to intelligence, but not as it is believed but in a negative way, a cynical person tends to be less intelligent, less competent and less capable of acting cooperatively or creating meaningful relationships with other people and therefore they are less successful in basically every aspect in life that someone can be successful at.

The study is based on information from 200,000 people from 30 countries, that is, a huge and multicultural sample, which included tests of cognitive ability, language, mathematics and computer skills, all taking into account external factors such as level of Education, income and social climate, that is, in countries with high levels of corruption, high levels of cynicism were expected since the context causes people to distrust institutions and other people more.
