Smartphones May Make People Dull

How many actual phone numbers can you remember? We are allowing smartphones to do more and more problem solving and analytical thinking for us instead of doing it ourselves.

Our increased use of social media and entertainment is also adding to our lower cognitive skills.

Research shows the higher our analytical skills are, the less time we spend looking things up on our phones.

This correlation could explain the increase of smart phone use and decrease in intelligence overall. (UPI)
