Can your intelligence effect your speech and articulation? I found this interesting post on Reddit earlier about this topic. I really feel this post as someone with speech disorders and a intellectual disability I’ve wondered this before. Is it true tho?

    I think the first thing to recognize is that there is absolutely no single measure of intelligence. IQ scores are (a) seriously flawed and discredited (and narrowly focused measure of human abilities). Human intellectual powers have many dimensions. Someone may be weak in speech and articulation but on the other hand be an absolute genius mechanically, artistically, or in some other aspect of human intellectual pursuit.

        You can study for an IQ test and raise your grade so it doesn’t really measure anything important, just test taking ability, which I suspect is where a lot of other positive correlations between IQ and college admissions/outcomes/etc factor in
