Do you know that?/You know what? Do you know that?/You know what? Our faces are not only beautiful and ugly, but also their appearance will reveal your character and health! The following is the appearance brought by the psychological network, revealing your personality and health.
Deterministic
Carmen of Northumbria University, UK? Carmen Lefaivre explained:? Biological conditions of human body, such as genes and hormones, can affect human growth, and similar mechanisms can also shape human character? . Whether the face is short, wide, long or thin, look at the skeleton of the face carefully. Lefevere found that people with higher testosterone levels have wider faces and higher cheekbones. As for personality, they may be more determined and confident, and sometimes they are extremely enterprising.
Surprisingly, people have found the relationship between face shape and dominance in many places. For example, capuchin monkeys, the wider their faces, the higher their status in the population. For example, professional football players, carefully observe the 20 10 World Cup. Recently, Keith of the University of Colorado at Boulder? Keith Verk's experiment shows that people can infer the number of midfielders who hit the ball out of bounds and the number of goals scored by forwards from the coefficient ratio of football players' face width to face length.
If you want to try to calculate by yourself, you have to divide by the distance between your ears and the distance from the top of your eyes to your upper lip to get the ratio. The average coefficient of aspect ratio is about 2, Abraham? Lincoln's aspect ratio is 1.93. )
The aspect ratio coefficient can even tell you the intention of politicians. By asking volunteers to evaluate the different psychological conditions of American presidents, Lefevere found that faces can reflect their ambitions and driving forces. Like John, the 35th president of the United States? Fitzgerald? The width and height of John F. Kennedy's face are 65438+ Chester, the 2nd1president of the United States in the 9th century? Chester Arthur's face has a higher aspect ratio. However, it is best not to believe all the similar historical figures; Moreover, it must be mentioned that cooperation ability, intelligence and other qualities are also crucial to success.
Full cheeks
As you can imagine, your face can also tell us your medical history, and its details may be surprising. For example, the fat content on your face can clearly show your health, which is more accurate than more standard weight measurement methods. People with thin faces are not easy to be infected, and even if they are infected, their condition is lighter; They are less likely to be depressed or anxious, which may be because mental state is usually closely related to physical health.
How did the fullness of your cheeks reveal so much personal information? Benedict from Glasgow University? Benedict Jones believes that rethinking the role of fat in the human body may help people answer this question. He said:? How healthy you are is related to where your body contains fat, but it has little to do with how much fat you have in your body. . ? Pear shape? A person with a good figure has a lot of fat in the buttocks, but a slim trunk. This kind of person is better than? Apple shape? People with fat waist and abdomen are healthier. This is because it is believed that inflammatory molecules released by adipose tissue near the chest can destroy the core organs. Jones said? Maybe the fullness of your cheeks represents the fat content in some dangerous parts of the human body, or the fat on your face is dangerous and abnormal for some reason.
In addition to these obvious appearances, subtle differences in skin color can also show the health status of the human body. Jones and Lefevere stressed that this has nothing to do with race or skin color. People hardly notice the change of skin color, but these skin colors reflect the difference of living habits. For example, if your skin is a little yellow and golden, you may be more energetic and healthier. This yellow color on the skin is called carotene. As the name implies, it can be taken from orange or red fruits and vegetables. Lefevere said: Carotene helps the body's immune system to keep healthy, but when we eat enough carotene, they will precipitate in the skin layer by layer, making the skin yellow. Is the skin yellow because these carotene don't fight the disease? . On the contrary, this healthy color plays a great role in showing your charm. In fact, it's much better than going to a tanning salon to change your skin color.
At the same time, pink on the face means good body circulation brought by an active lifestyle, which may also be a sign of female fertility. Jones found that women's faces will be redder on days with more menstrual periods, which may be due to a sex hormone estradiol that slightly dilates the blood vessels in the cheeks. The easier it is for women to get pregnant, the more attractive they are, which may be the result of many small changes in appearance and behavior.
Looks smart.
As Jones pointed out, some secrets are obvious at a glance, but it takes us a long time to discover them. At least this knowledge can be preserved? Face? Since Aristotle's viewpoint appeared, the fate of physiognomy has been mixed. Henry VIII of Tudor Dynasty in England was so skeptical about physiognomy that he even banned charlatans from reading fortune-telling. At the beginning of the 20th century, physiognomy declined again, because people thought it was related to phrenology. Phronology is a misconception that human behavior can be inferred from a lump on the head.
But now, physiognomy is a bit credible. We may find many amazing secrets in your selfie. Surprisingly, it seems that we can infer people's IQ accurately from their faces, although we still don't know what specific factors make people look smart (needless to say, it's not as simple as wearing glasses or not). Someone else is exploring? Sexual orientation? . Even without any typical characteristics, we can usually guess someone's sexual orientation in an instant, but it is still a mystery. What do we see in our faces? Further investigation may explain how we made these judgments quickly.
It is also interesting to observe how people's personality, living habits and appearance change in their lives. A study attempts to analyze the relationship between personality and appearance of subjects collected from 1930s to 1990s. Scientists have found that although men with baby faces are unlikely to dominate when they are young, they will become more and more confident as time goes by. This may be because they have learned how to make up for the confusion caused by young faces.
More interestingly, research funders also found support? Dorian. Gray phenomenon? (Dorian? Gray is the hero in Oscar Wilde's The Portrait of Dorian Gray. Gray sold his soul to keep his beauty and replaced the old evidence with painting. This phenomenon means that aging faces may reflect some specific personalities that were not obvious when they were young. Attractive and sociable women from adolescence to their thirties will become more and more attractive in appearance, so in their fifties, people will think that they are more beautiful than those women who are more beautiful in appearance but slightly less elegant. One possibility is that they know how to show their best, and their inner self-confidence is expressed through subtle differences in expression.
As a recent ingenious study has proved, people's appearance is more than just skeleton and skin color. In this study, scientists asked volunteers to put on their favorite clothes and take a big picture. Although their clothes can't be seen in the headshots, the impartial judges think that these people are much more beautiful than other participants. Considering that participants can neither laugh nor cry, they must keep a neutral expression, so this study is very famous. Although their expressions are simple, for some reason, their full confidence is still outstanding. Our faces are not just the product of biological structures. We can't change our genes or hormones, but by cultivating good personality and self-esteem, they may also appear on our faces and become more important symbols.
