Q: One U.S. psychologist says that this can be used to predict if you’ll get divorced as an adult?

YEARBOOK PHOTOS REVEAL IF YOU’LL GET DIVORCED: What kind of faces did you make in your yearbook photos? One U.S. psychologist says the images from your childhood can be used to predict you’ll get divorced as an adult. To find this, researchers from DePauw University in Indiana measured individuals’ emotional displays based on their yearbook photos and then tried to predict which individuals would divorce later in life. Researchers found that people who smiled least genuinely in their photos were five times more likely to get divorces at some point in their lives than those who were truly happy in their photographs. However, one research says, “Your smile, or lack thereof, is not the great determinant of your destiny. Individual cases will certainly vary.” (Daily Mail)
