Yes and it's not just purely cognitive tasks. In fact, pretty much everything requires you to use your brain, so smarter people tend to do better on pretty much everything regardless of their familiarity/talent for the task at hand.
But this is something most people prefer to ignore because the implications are pretty big and we already had a war around that...
