Although we are taught not to judge by appearances. But psychologists at the University of Northumbria in the UK have found that the face is a window of character.
Face type determines personality, and research shows that people with wide faces are more assertive.
Researcher Carmen Lefevre explained, "Biological factors (such as genes and hormone levels) can affect people's growth, and they can also shape personality."
For example, people with high testosterone levels tend to have larger cheekbones and are more assertive and sometimes aggressive in personality.
People with thinner faces are less likely to suffer from infectious diseases. In addition, they are often less prone to depression and anxiety because mental health is often closely related to physical health.
Fat on the face suggests that fat has accumulated in harmful areas, resulting in a high risk of illness.
Subtle differences in skin color can also reveal health secrets, and skin color differences between people of the same race may reflect different lifestyles. For example, a slight yellowing of the face suggests better health. It contains carotene, which helps the body build a healthy immune system.
A blush is a sign of a virtuous cycle in the body, and may also be a sign of a woman's fertility. Women tend to be slightly redder at the peak of their menstrual cycle, possibly due to the slight dilation of facial blood vessels caused by estrogen. These subtle changes are the reason why women are more beautiful during pregnancy.
Research also claims that face shape determines a man's IQ
According to the Daily Mail of the UK, researchers from Charlie University in Prague, Czech Republic, have found that people have the ability to distinguish their IQ from the shape of their male faces, but this method is not applicable to women.
Research says face shape determines IQ
The research team used static facial photos of 40 men and 40 women to examine the relationship between IQ and appearance. The results showed that men with higher IQ had longer facial features, wider distance between their eyes, larger noses, slightly raised corners of the mouth, and a sharp, angular chin.
Researchers believe that this discrimination method is of great significance for the study of human evolution. This method is not suitable for women because men pay more attention to their appearance.
