It is difficult to find a person of the 21st century who would not be registered in one of the social networks.
We have been using them for a long time for generalizing, watching news, entertainment, inspiration and last but not least for presenting ourselves.
And the first thing that tells us about the world is our avatar.
Psychiatrist Experience: Doctor Evgenia Streletskaya looked at the avatars of her patients in social networks.
She noticed that there are 6 main types of people and all of them choose certain photos.
Streletskaya notes that this is not a scientific classification, but such information may lead to some speculations.
The first group selects an avatar with an inanimate object.
It can be a snapshot of a book, guitar, skateboard, sea, flower or any other thing. Rather, such people do not know themselves well, they do not have clear notifications about their personalities.
The owner of the avatar can treat himself with neglect and not take himself.
People who choose to take a picture of an animal, a frame from a movie, an image of a cartoon character, or any other fictional character for avatars are notable for their infantilism.
All around, they consider them harsh and unfair, but taking responsibility for themselves for their own life is refused. Communicating with them will be a lesser problem, than with those who have decided on an inanimate object, but all the same, you need to prepare for such a person to be quiet.
A photograph with an animal or fictitious rendition indicates that in a person there is a certain emotion that he does not recognize and does not accept. In this way, he tries to emulate this emotion, to show the main reason for his distress.
Therefore, to understand the owner of such a profile, you should take a closer look at the picture and dissipate it, such as emotion, the condition, and the image.
People who constantly take selfies only from profitable angles may have elements of narcissistic and anti-personality disorder.
They find it difficult to get close, trustworthy relationships. They take a look at the benefits. Often, kings and girls in social networks are important to take a photo for Instagram, which will take a little more to the point of being very good.
If, as a rule, the face is covered with hair, sunglasses, and a person is shown in full or back, then put it in front of you.
Such people may suffer from social phobias and a shy person.
They will not be easy to open and find out in reality. Therefore, if you want to build a close relationship with such a person, then try to make sure that he can feel comfortable and calm with you.
If a person specifically goes to a photo to take a picture for an avatar, then he needs to say something to others.
These people are still “developing” their femininity and masculinity. A professional look from the side (in this case, the photo, which will be chosen the correct aspect) will help them to better recognize themselves.
In most cases they don’t know how to pay attention to the opposite sex, and they hope that the studio shots will help them.
Usually mature, fully-formed photos are published by mature, formed, self-assured people.
They are not afraid to show themselves in different ways and do not choose one “working side”, as an Instagram diva. They do not need to hide themselves for the pictures of non-living objects and animals.
Professional photos can be published in their tape, but they will leave the usual picture on the avatar.
And what does science say?
There is no scientific explanation of the choice of avatars.
Psychologists understand that a person is much more complex and many-sided than one photograph.
But on the other hand, an entire whole science is avatars. Some fans studied the avatars of 350 people in the social network “Contact” and revealed some patterns.
For example, if a person publishes a photo at full height, then he has everything to be self-respecting, he loves and respects himself. Too open photos give out problems in personal life.
People who publish photos with their partners or family want to show their status to the whole world and prove to themselves that they are not alone. Frames that open the hobby of a person may be masked by a lack of satisfaction.
