Are introverts generally smarter than extroverts?

I wouldn’t say either is smarter

Well, numerous studies have shown that higher IQ and introverted tendencies may be linked.
I assume it is more that smart people tend to be silent and not the other way around. But idk

Yeah, I don't know if introverts are smarter, but they're definitely quieter...

I think introverts are generally dumber. It happens that they are much smarter, but usually they’re dumb and they want to hide their stupidity from others by not saying anything and avoiding everyone. Extroverts know how to deal with people because they’re smart. I’m an idiot and that’s why I’m an introvert. That’s also why I play chess, to prove to myself I’m not an idiot

It's said that introverts have the upper hand in observational and listening skills because of their laid-back attitude. Whereas, extroverts who exhibit proactive behavior are more likely to find success in their careers. So, who wins in a head-to-head battle of smarts?
What's a head to head battle of smarts? An IQ test?

Overall intelligence. The ability to learn and process new information, cognitive abilities, etc.
It could also mean an IQ test as well.
Introverts might be more knowledgeable because they may have spent more time reading and/or learning than extroverts, who probably spent more time socializing. On the other hand, extroverts may be more charismatic from having more polished social skills. I don't believe one group is any more intelligent than the other, just different.
It just doesn't make sense for me to judge someones intelligence by how much they talk around people

Of course, it would be absurd to conclude that all introverts/extroverts are smart and the rest aren't. Introverts and extroverts exhibit unique characteristics and distinct personalities. Who do you think would on average would perform better on a test that would challenge your intellectual capabilities?
The guy who studied
Bruh, I'm talking about an impromptu test.
I honestly doubt your personality has anything to do with how smart you are
#16 the guy who knows more or is smarter depending on the test
