Ohio university psychologist James blumenthal ning (JamesBruning) in just for a psychology study found that people in still flew in attitude when using names.For example, a man named Bruno could easily find a job as a truck driver, and to be a hair stylist is more difficult.
The university of Athens and Ohio university students as the object of the research shows that people often like to one's name the same specific career together, and if the person name looks more suitable for a job, so he (she) will have more chance to get the job.In short, to participate in the study of the students think a man should do,A womanWomen should do, and the name of a person is to measure whether he (she) is suitable for the job the first clue.
Bloom said he conducted the study of reason is that nowadays people are no longer hope they flew, innovation.However, through the study, he found that the actual is not the case.A man named Bruno is hard to find a job as a hairstylist.Even for him to study specially selected still are less common name.
In one experiment, bloom ning selected 16 kinds of occupation, in the traditional sense of half for masculine career, while the other half of feminine occupation.The results of the experiment is a computer programmer, plumber, track coach, truck drivers, electricians, construction workers, engineering designers and computer technician was selected as the male profession.The manicurist, nurse, stylist, cheerleading coach, new product owner interior decorators, care workers, and was elected to the female flight attendant career.
As to the reasons of this phenomenon, bloom said he also can't be sure."Perhaps this down in people life began," he said."All of us are like that."But he warned against people pay attention to person's name, because it is simply reflect a small part of the overall situation.Of course, he also acknowledged that almost all the people are very suitable for his (her) own name.
