People Who Hate Having To Wear Clothes When They’re At Home Usually Share This One Quiet Superpower. Do you have it?
Choosing to lounge in the buff while in the comfort of your own home isn't as rare an occurrence as you might think, and the preference doesn’t have a whole lot to do with body confidence or temperature. It is actually the result of a particular personality trait. A trait that many would consider a superpower.
I definitely know people who seem more inclined than others to hang out naked at home. Unfortunately, my dad was one of them. Okay, not completely naked. I mean, there were kids around. But he totally would have if he could. I prefer cute pajama sets, cozy sweatshirts, and Muumuu dresses, even when I’m completely alone and could be totally naked if I wanted to. But maybe that's something I should consider changing because research has shown that people who prefer going au naturel seem to be winning at life.
Research found that people who hate wearing clothes at home tend to be more intelligent.
In the world of psychological research, professionals often talk about the Big Five personality scale. The commonly used method divides personality types into five categories: agreeableness, extraversion, neuroticism, conscientiousness, and openness to experience.
In 2017, Researchers Lewis R. Goldberg and Benjamin P. Chapman decided to dig into that personality scale by conducting a 1000 person survey regarding hundreds of different behaviors to figure out how certain daily acts, everything from how often you talk on the phone to your views on being naked at home, and determine how those behaviors relate to the Big Five.
After compiling the data, they were able to associate specific behaviors with personality traits. For example, people with low levels of neuroticism were less likely to lose weight, while people with high agreeableness were more likely to sing in the shower.
At this point, you're probably asking yourself, "What does this have to do with being naked at home?" And here it is. Three surprising habits emerged from this research that related to the openness to experience personality trait, which was also linked to higher IQs. Those traits were a preference for eating spicy foods, a penchant for swearing, and ... drumroll please ... preferring to lounge at home without any clothes on!
