How will our personality change after 50 years?

People kept saying "Jiangshan is easy to change, the nature is hard to move" , but is this true?

Character is a characteristic characteristic of people. Unlike the appearance or shape of a person, the personality that is perceived as stable does not change over time.

Human personality is influenced by two main factors: genetics and living environment.

However, this affirmation will probably no longer be accurate.

According to the latest conclusion of psychologists at the University of Houston, the personality of people is influenced by two main factors: genetics and living environment.

Contrary to previous observations, the qualities of personality (like thinking, feeling and behavior) tend to change over time, depending on their environment.

"Our research shows that human character can be sharpened, mature over time, not changeable, " the researchers wrote in the Jounal of Peronality and Social Psychology magazine.

Not only looks, but also human personality changes.

Based on the definition of psychology, human personality is formed according to the Big Five personality traits , including: conscientiousness, openness to experience, extrovert (extraversion), pleasant (agreeableness), psychological instability (neuroticism).

These 5 factors will change based on the time due to the surrounding environment, leading to thoughts and behaviors that are somewhat affected.

Specifically, the researchers surveyed a group of high school students in 1960 with a series of questions related to the Big Five personality scale. By 50 years later, they were interviewed again, and the results were surprising to the researchers.

The results show that, within 50 years, each person's life has changed their character dramatically, whether positive or negative.

"On average, the more people get older, the more experience they experience, the more emotional and pleasing they are when they are younger, " said Dr. Rodica Damian of the University of Houston, Texas.

From here, scientists believe that further research will uncover the mystery of human personality even more, and not just stop at 50 years.
