  1. Hair color and IQ! By Dyserah Monnica

  2. Introduction For years people have said blondes are unintelligent. Scientist have researched, and found that hair color has almost NOTHING to do with intelligence level. Therefore, all blondes being dumb is just a stereotype. They are not actually less intelligent.

  3. Background info. Blondes have, throughout the years, been called dumb. But many blondes have very high intelligence levels. Doctors, scientists, college professors/teachers. Are all examples of smart blondes.

  4. Hypothesis I think that the redheads will have the highest score working together. The boys will make the most improvement working together. And the brunettes will have the lowest scores working separately.

  5. Materials • 2 blondes (male female) • 2 redheads (male female) • 2 brunettes (male female) • IQ tests • 1 answer key

  6. Procedure I will have all the students take the same test working alone. The second test will be taken having the students working together in groups of blondes, redheads and brunettes. The last test will be taken having the students work together in groups of males and females.

  7. Variables Independent- Hair color Dependent- Score Controlled- Students will take the same test at the same times.

  8. Results

  9. Conclusion The blondes had the highest score working together, yet separately the female red head and female blonde had the highest score. The boys had the highest score and improved the most when working together with gender.

  10. Major observations The girls worked together better than the boys, yet the boys arguments helped improve scores by having to read the questions more carefully and having to think more.

  11. Possible cause of error Tests were taken around the same time, not at the exact times. Tests not taken in a completely silent area. Some noises and interruptions.

  12. Further research Does working together improve test scores? I found that having the blondes work together, one of them improved their score while the other’s stayed the same. The brunettes both improved their scores, and the score for one of the redheads increased, while the other decreased. Does working together in groups of gender improve test scores? All of the boy’s scores improved, while only two of the girl’s scores improved. One stayed the same.

  13. Time spent Approximately 13 hours

  14. Acknowledgements Thanks to the following students who took time out of there work days to test for me. Erin, Nick, Hannah, Tristin, Brayden and Mac. Thanks to all of the students and teachers who proof read and checked. And special thanks to Mrs. Riffel who helped answer my many many questions!
