I heard on the news that when a person is rejected their IQ can fall. Is that possible?
Apparently, rejection can temporarily lower a person’s Intelligence Quotient or IQ. No wonder students may temporarily score lower on tests right after perceiving receiving a rejection. Simply being asked to recall a recent rejection experience was enough to cause individuals to score significantly lower on subsequent IQ tests, tests of short-term memory, and tests of decision-making. Indeed, when a person is reeling from a painful rejection, thinking clearly is just not that easy.
