Being red with shame indicates confidence and generosity, study says

Making presentations, speaking in class, giving interviews, and getting compliments are just a few situations that leave many people ashamed, resulting in frequent reddish cheeks . Only those who suffer from this problem know how uncomfortable it can be. However, science has discovered that turning red in certain situations can be a great quality and in some cases favor.

According to a study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, people who look red when they feel ashamed are considered "Our standards suggest that this is a good thing, not something that you should fight against," said Matthew Feinberg, a student of psychology at the University of California at Berkeley and lead author of the study.

According to the researcher, the moderate embarrassment that comes up without a motive is an emotional signature of the people you can trust, being a positive trait in business and love life.

To reach this conclusion, the researchers analyzed data collected from a series of experiments that they used m video testimonials, economic trust games, and surveys to assess the relationship between shame and sociability.

In the first test, 60 college students were filmed counting embarrassing moments like flatulence in public or incorrect judgments about some people. The most typical situations of shame included finding an overweight woman pregnant or confusing an unkempt person with a beggar. Each video testimony was ranked based on the level of embarrassment shown.

Volunteers also participated in the "Dictator's Game", commonly used in studies to check people's level of altruism. Thus, each one received 10 raffle tickets, in which they should keep a part of them for themselves and give the rest to a partner. The results showed that those with the highest levels of embarrassment gave more tickets to the others, which indicates more generosity.

In addition, the participants participated in another experiment, where they were supposed to watch a scene where an actor was told that he had received a perfect score on a test. Then the artist made a gesture of embarrassment or pride. After this event the volunteers underwent tests to mediate their level of trust in the actor based on this reaction. The analyzes showed that signs of embarrassment inspired more positive feedback from viewers. In this way, people are more willing to approach and feel more comfortable in relying on those easily embarrassed.

However, scientists point out that this habit can not be confused with social phobia. People who suffer from this disorder avoid social interactions to the fullest. They are frightened only by the idea of ​​going to a party or any other social event, individuals who, from the fear they feel, often go so far as to avoid any kind of social contact.
