what you wear matters | the psychology behind clothing, uniforms & identity

👇Open for more!

Do clothes affect the way we think and behave? Can putting on a military uniform make you more prone to aggression, does wearing a lab coat increase your sustained attention on a test? Yes, clothing carries a lot of power and influence both on others and on ourselves. Cognitive psychologists Hajo Adam and Adam Galinsky coined this phenomenon enclothed cognition, and they’ve been researching the psychological and performance-related effects that wearing specific articles of clothing have on the person wearing them. What you wear matters, for a number of reasons - the first one being......

Woaaw this is soo eye opening to be honest, I always thought that clothes aren't as important but I noticed that because I always were the same thing the same lazy hoodie hiding in it, it does affect my behaviour: I become shy quite and lazy to

There's been quite a big shift in the way I present myself ever since I got into college, even more so in the past couple years- I've opted for simpler clothes, stopped wearing makeup day to day, avoided wearing outfits that might make me stand out. I told myself it won't change much to just change my wardrobe coz what's inside is still the same, but lately I feel like I've slowly lost touch with myself; I guess this might be why.

Same is for makeup ! Started to wear eye liner again and people are kinder because I look more "put together" I guess.

But that doesn't work when I'm wearing my Nirvana t shirt. People don't even acknowledge me in stores and junkies approach me 🥶.

I love this video definitely one of my faves. Touches so many points that I don’t have to do exhausting research on.

[cherishafernando]

Thank you Ana! You have always been "My Elder Sister" when I needed you the most 😇💐

[brianfarmer]

I learned a lot from this, thank you.

Hi Anna! I used to watch your study videos back in school. After a long time, I am seeing you again. WoW, you have grown up into a psychologist and I have become a banker! Your Tim Bourton style has changed into more serious attire. I am feeling like we have gone through our academic journey together, and became the professionals that we really wanted to be.

[aliciagc]

Ana, you are brilliant. This should have a million views. Thanks for putting this together. I don't know you but your dress looks so "you". Authentic.

[ajaxlogan]

OMG, I have a similar biker jacket and got the same response as you Anna.

[sewnforsport]

Girl~~~ gonna share!! This is awesome!!!

[zeronatsukawa]

Yesss i love this topic, it really helps to have clothes you can fall back on esp. when youre feeling awful. Tip, when its frequent awful feelings, invest in nice pyjamas.

[Ekjunior-yv]

I agree with you 💯 percent, what you wear matters 🎉❤

[sreeparnaghosh]

Thank you for this insightful video. And what you're wearing here is gorgeous. You look amazing 😍😍😍😍😍

[psychnstatstutor]

Took me ages to accept that clothing matters~ I mostly use it nowadays so clients feel a sense of trust and it helps to cultivate rapport.
And in my personal life~ to sway the men ~:-)

[mangusto]

Explicação excelente! Foi ótima a argumentação, pois fundamentada cientificamente.
Vou me inscrever no canal, acompanhar novos vídeos e assistir aos que já foram postados.
Parabéns e muito obrigado por realizar esse altruísta e empático trabalho.
Abraços do Brasil!

I could see the goth in you. It's a pity you didn't stay in the community haha I am passionate about black clothes and goth outfits, but I agree with you. It's not the same wearing a black blazer than a black lace dress, one's for biz, the other for party :P

[marketnewsclub]

You just convinced me to drop thousands on a high quality suit, a luxury watch and dress shoes. In the grand scheme of things, it’s a better investment than stocks because you get a huge return on investment right away and for years to come as you move up the social ladder

[shinigami]

bottom line, im fuck! I dont know my style and also when I see something that may like, its to expensive for me, i don't like in the USA.

[juanpedronardin]

You should wear a lab coat too, specially for these informative videos. Play with our psychology.
