I think you have cause and effect flipped. The study suggest if you're dumb you listen to so and so, no listening to so and so makes you dumb.
My "range" is between Eminem (1000) and Beethoven (1350).
I just post what I find...I don't rewrite the copy.
I find it curious that both jazz and classical are towards the "dumb" end of the scale behind R&B and rock.

It was a "study" culled from Facebook users....that should tell you a lot.
I was equally surprised to see that. I infer that smart people are generally not on facebook, which explains why jazz and classical were rated to low--only a few dumb people listen to it, the smarter people, because the data was compiled from facebook, were not included in the study.

Even funnier, jazz is in similar "band" to Beyonce, and yet smarter people listen Norah Jones
Nothing against Norah Jones, but as an artist she is not as technical as some of the great jazz musicians of the past.
