Do smart people play chess, or does playing chess make people smart? Relatedly, can teaching children how to play chess improve their educational attainment?
The general answer to the latter question seems to be a no – an investigation to test the effects of chess instruction on the academic skills of nearly 4,000 British children showed no effect on their scores in mathematics, literacy, or science.
However, a study with Bangladeshi rural primary school kids showed an improvement in their calculative risk-taking. So, perhaps playing chess makes people smarter, just not the way we think. In this episode, we turn to Asadul Islam, an Economics professor at Monash University, for an answer to this question.
Here is a link to the academic paper.
