There are 4 personality classes. You will not like the most common

Talking about personality classes is not something new.Classification by types of human beings has existed since time immemorial, almost always to justify some kind of discrimination or forced servitude; but for a couple of centuries, with the emergence of social sciences , interest in different personality types has been oriented to improve social behaviors, educational models and, In recent times, as a tool to formulate programs for robotics.

There are 4 personality classes.The one that is more common you will NOT like

Recently the magazine Science Advances published a study conducted by Spanish researchers from the Carlos III University, in which researchers from the universities of Zaragoza, Rovira and Virgili and Barcelona also participated, entitled “Human beings show a reduced set of behavioral phenotypes in daily games ”, In which the existence of 4 basic personality classes was determined when it comes to certain social dynamics that involve some kind of interaction: optimistic, pessimistic, confident and envious .

For the study, the researchers worked with elements of the game theory , a field of mathematics with applications in sociology, psychology and economics, and had the participation of 540 volunteers who underwent four educational games.

The professor of the Department of Mathematics of the Carlos III University, Anxo Sanchez, explains:

" To those people They were asked to play in pairs, which changed in each round, but also each time the game was different, that is, it might be best to cooperate with the other, or do the opposite of the other, or betray it...In this way we have data of what they do in very different social situations.”

The results of these social interaction games, which involved some kind of cooperation, were converted into algorithms and processed by a computer to guarantee the objectivity, and a striking conclusion was that the most common type of personality in social interactions is that of the envious , with 30%.

Let's break down the results a little more: 20% of trusted people , always willing to cooperate; 20% of optimists , who seek to interact with those with whom they can obtain better results; a 20% pessimistic , who prefers not to cooperate because he believes that nothing will work out; 10% that the computer does not I manage to define in any group, and 30% envious , who don't mind earning little, as long as the others earn less.

The result of this experiment, which was promoted by the Barcelona City Council and the Office of Citizen Science, would go against certain anthropological and social theories that postulate a innate and majority attitude for cooperation between human beings; but at the same time it can serve to model public policies more in line with human reality, and to modify unwanted social behaviors.

It could also eventually serve to design more humanized personality classes in robots.Y you, which of these personality types do you think you belong to? Share it on networks social and read about the hitchhiker robot, HitchBOT, would you help him?

Does it threaten a megatsunami?

A long, long time ago, 73,000 years to be exact, the eastern face of a volcano collapsed in Cape Verde.This caused a wave of gigantic proportions, which rose to 170 meters high and then crashed with enormous force in a nearby island. This megatsunami , as it was baptized in the journal Science Advances , is the largest one with a geological record. They say it can happen again This is stated by Ricardo Ramalho , a geophysicist at the University of Bristol, although he clarifies that it cannot be known exactly when or where. The problem is the young oceanic volcanoes-such as those found in the Canary Islands or the Azores, or Hawaii-that have very high altitudes and steep walls; the scientist believes that the potential disaster is there, if it happens again with certainty it will originate in these volcanoes. The flanks of some of the oceanic volcanoes collapse periodically, causing huge amounts of rock they slide down and the water moves below; This is how tsunamis f...

The sun shield that some scientists want to build

Faced with the imminent threat of solar flares that could seriously affect life on Earth, a group of scientists has proposed a novel form of protection: a gigantic sun shield .. With a sun shield we could protect the Earth from the king star, according to scientists Human activity in the 21st century increasingly depends on the infrastructure located in the orbit Low Terrestrial (LEO), that is, the many telecommunications satellites currently in space, the International Space Station and the GPS satellite fleet. For this reason, the solar flares have begun to be considered a serious danger to human life, because if this infrastructure is destroyed we would be left without the tools that make our comfortable existence on the planet possible. To treat this threat a team of scientists from Harv University ard recently published a study that proposes a bold solution: put a giant magnetic shield in orbit. The study, which was the work of Manasavi Lingam and Abraham Loeb of...
