Research indicates that people tend to subconsciously assume that attractive individuals are also more intelligent, conscientious, and successful. A study involving university students found that participants rated more attractive faces as more intelligent, suggesting a bias in perception rather than a direct correlation.
Another study found a strong positive correlation between attractiveness and perceived intelligence, but not necessarily actual academic performance or intelligence.
Some researchers propose that the perception of a link between beauty and intelligence might stem from evolutionary factors, where attractive individuals are perceived as having higher "mate value" and therefore, are also assumed to possess other desirable traits.
