20 Interesting Facts You Didnt Know About Human Behavior

BY ANNA LEMIND JULY 1, 2013 PSYCHOLOGY & HEALTH, WEIRD & UNBELIEVABLE
FACTS
human behavior1. People with high levels of testosterone get pleasure from the
anger of others.
2. People with low self-esteem tend to humiliate others. Subjects who were told that
the results of their IQ test were poor expressed more national and religious
prejudices, than those who reported higher results.
3. People sincerely believe that their negative opinions about others are truthful and
have no connection with them and their self-confidence. In fact, the humiliation of
others helps them restore their own self-esteem.
4. The behavior of people is affected by bodily sensations. For example, there is a
strong association between heaviness and such features as importance and
seriousness. A person is assessed as more serious and sustained, if his CV was
applied in a heavy folder, and vice versa.
5. Similarly, the feeling of rigidity and hardness makes people inflexible. People
sitting on hard chairs were more uncompromising in the negotiations. Feeling a
rough surface causes in people a sense of the complexity of human relations, and
cold is tightly connected with the feeling of loneliness.
6. People tend to commit immoral acts or do not fulfill someones request for help, if
no effort is needed and they do not have to refuse a person directly.
7. However, more people behave as expected if they have to take a moral
decision in front of someone.
8. Lying requires a lot of mental effort. A person who is lying has to keep in mind at
the same time the lie that it to say, and the truth in order to hide it. As a result,
he uses simple sentences and finds it more difficult to cope with mental tasks.
9. When people are being watched, they behave better. And the illusion of being
watched works, too. It was enough to hang a picture of human eyes in a self-service
cafeteria, so that more people began to collect their dishes.
10. Behavior affects morality. People who lied, betrayed someone or committed
other immoral act begin to perceive what is good or bad in another way.
11. Attractive and honest appearance can easily be misleading. People tend to trust
appearance more than sincerity.
12. Appearance plays an important role even when voting during elections. Maturity
and physical attractiveness of politicians were mostly important for voters choice
(unconsciously, of course).
13. More successful and rich people are considered to be more intelligent and wise,
and vice versa. Often, people tend to think that those who are successful or those
who suffer deserve it.

14. Happier is not the one who has a lot of money, but the one who has more than
his neighbor does. People constantly compare themselves with others and feel
satisfied if they are superior in some respect.
15. Anger increases the desire of possession in people. People make more efforts to
obtain the object that is associated with angry faces.
16. The more complex the decision to be taken is, the more people tend to leave
things as they are. If the store has too much choice and people cannot immediately
find out which of the products is better, most probably they will leave without
buying.
17. When people feel they have no control over what is happening, they tend to see
non-existent patterns in unrelated pictures and believe in conspiracy theories.
18. People regret quick decisions, even if the results are satisfying. Not the actual
time allotted for the decision matters, but the feeling that the time was enough.
19. Not all risks are the same. The same person can fearlessly jump with a
parachute, but be afraid of his boss. Or to train tigers, but feel embarrassed when
talking to a pretty woman.
20. Boredom has a bright side. Bored people are often looking for ways to do good
things as the entertainment bores them and does not bring meaning to their lives
