In 2016, the largest study of grit, conducted in over 4,500 16-year old twins in the United Kingdom found that grit (measured by the Grit-S) accounted for only one half of one percent (0.5%) of highest-stakes outcomes (school grades) after IQ and personality (in particular conscientiousness) were accounted for.[12]

Also in 2016, a meta-analytic synthesis of prior empirical research on grit by Crede, Tynan, and Harms [13] summarized data from 88 independent samples and over 66,000 individuals and found that grit is only weakly related to success and almost identical to the personality trait known as conscientiousness. Crede et al. conclude that the contribution of grit to the prediction of success is very limited. Crede et al., also noted that the combination of passion and perseverance into an overall grit construct could not be justified.

never heard of this before but it seems pretty intuitive. not sure why a scientific study was necessary. is there a similar study that correlates height with success at rebounding in basketball?
