“Children still don’t look like their names, but adults who have lived with their names longer tend to look like their names. This result suggestion That Role and develop OK and Stereotype it is given to them at birth,” the researchers wrote.

In the experiments conducted by the research team, children and adults were required to associate a photo of a face with a name (one photo had four name options, only one of which was correct). As a result, both age groups (one was 8 to 13 years old, the other was 18 to 30 years old) were able to correctly guess the name of an adult using appearance as the only parameter. But the same success rate was not possible for artificial adults created by AI.

“These results suggest that people develop according to the stereotypes they are born with. Social creatures what are these pretentious go through breeding: One of our most unique and personal physical components, Our facial expressionspossible Molded Our name due to social factors”, the team of researchers clarified.

Thus, according to the study, the change in appearance is called “Self-fulfilling prophecy” is part of human social development and has a more obvious impact on adult life.

“George Orwell famously said: ‘At 50, everyone has the face they deserve.’ This study supports Orwell’s observation, suggesting that changes in facial appearance over the years can be influenced by a person’s personality and behavior,” they explain.

The team notes that future research could clarify the link between being familiar with others’ stereotypes and expressing those stereotypes oneself.

“Another conjecture worthy of future exploration is that name donors (primarily parents) may have an advantage over participants in detecting subtle physical or behavioral cues in newborns that are invisible to others and that correspond to stereotypes associated with the name and the name accordingly,” the authors conclude.
