A picture of a man jumping into a lake as his friends look on, with overlaid text saying, "There is a correlation between intelligence and low impulse control".

I dislike the wording. The use of the word "low" should either be left out entirely or placed before both intelligence and impulse. The way it is written now it could confer that low impulse control reflects high intelligence.

The intent is to imply that low impulse control shows high intelligence.
