Odor and personality go hand in hand.
Can you know someone’s personality by the way they smell? A group of researchers tried to get some __1__ about how people may behave based on their body odor. Although the results weren’t always accurate, they were similar to tests where people judged another’s behavior after watching a video of them.
In the study, researchers asked 60 people to wear plain white T-shirts for three nights __2__. For these three days, they were not allowed to wear perfume or eat strong-smelling foods because these would affect their body odor. All 60 people were given a personality test before the __3__ started. At the end of the three days, the shirts were put in bags and given to 200 testers who tried to determine the owner’s personality from the smell of the shirts.
The people smelling the shirts were able to guess if someone had a dominant, outgoing, or anxious personality. For example, people who are anxious may sweat a lot when they are __4__, which may make them smell different. Although the results were interesting, more studies need to be done to confirm the relationship __5__ odor and personality. First impressions may fool you. Instead of judging a book by its cover, try a different method like taking a whiff.

中文翻译
气味和个性密切相关。
你能从一个人的气味得知他的个性吗?一组研究人员试图根据体味来获得一些关于人们行为的线索。尽管结果并不总是准确,但它们很接近人们在观看他人影片后判断他人行为的测试。
在这项研究中,研究人员要求六十个人连续三个晚上都穿着纯白色的 T 恤。在这三天里,他们不被允许喷香水或吃气味浓烈的食物,因为这些都会影响体味。实验开始前,这六十人全都接受了性格测试。三天结束后,这些衣服被装进袋子里并交给两百名测试者,他们试图透过衣服的气味来判断主人的个性。
闻衣服的人能够猜测出某人的个性是否强势、外向或焦虑。例如,焦虑的人在压力过大时可能会大量出汗,这可能会使他们闻起来有所不同。尽管结果很有趣,但仍需要进行更多研究来证实气味与个性之间的关系。第一印象可能会欺骗你。与其以貌取人,不如试试看不同的方法,例如闻一闻吧。
