Studies have found no significant correlation between intelligence and bias blind spot (inability to detect bias in one’s own thinking). Smart or less smart makes no difference in rational behavior.
Education may help, but it needs to be focused specifically on bias blind spot reduction. There is some evidence mindfulness training is effective. Mindfulness is presently not taught in traditional education.

What does "smart" mean then? You write like everyone knows what the definitions are of the words you use, but the way you use them makes it clear that they all need to be defined before any understanding could happen.
I am completely apathetic about expert opinion and "studies" when I get a glimpse of some sort of community that just assumes everybody agrees on axioms and definitions.
