Deciding what to wear in the morning is a challenge for some people.We often worry about what others will think of us because of our clothes. But researchers are beginning to think that our clothing has an equally powerful effect on how we see ourselves.

Scientists Adam Galinsky and Hajo Adams report that there is science behind our style. In their research,Galinsky and Adams had some participants(参与者)wear white lab coats similar to the ones scientists or doctors wear. Other participants wore their normal clothes. The participants took a test that surveyed their ability to pay attention. In the experiment,participants saw cards with different-colored words on them. They had to say the color of the word they saw,not the word itself. The people wearing the white lab coats said the correct color of the word more often.

Galinsky and Adams think that the white coats made the participants feel more confident and careful. The researchers also believe that other kinds of "symbolic" clothes can influence the behavior of the people wearing them. A police officer's uniform or a judge's robe,for example,increases the wearer's feelings of power or confidence. And in workplaces that have a dress code,"symbolic" clothes may also affect how well employees do their jobs.

Fashion blogger Jessica Quirk believes that our clothes greatly affect how we feel about ourselves. According to Quirk,"There is joy and luck and confidence in what we wear. " On her blog called "What I wore," Quirk posts a photo of what she's wearing every day. She says that people should pay more attention to what they wear. For example,we should choose a look that makes us feel more creative and happy. One way to do this at work is to "dress up for the exciting job we want," she says,"not the boring job we have. " Another way is to wear special clothes that mean something to us. For example,Quirk wears one special pair of shoes to all her important meetings. They are her "lucky" shoes.

As Quirk points out-and as researchers have discovered-our clothes are "like our second skin. " The clothes we wear can affect our behavior. They can also tell the world something about us,without us having to say a word.

John spent years walking into a supermarket in his neighborhood. There he often waved to a friendly saleswoman. Recently, John got some news. To his surprise, he found the saleswoman in the supermarket was his sister Buddline.

Altogether, John has a brother and three sisters. So far he has found all of them. The children were all given up over 50 years ago by their mother. At that time, their mother lived a very hard life and had to give them to an organization.

One of the children, Deidre found their mother later in life and took care of her until her death last year. Buddline, 56, knew their mother’s name and was found by Deidre after their mother died. One by one, they found all the rest except John. They called the organization, which called John and told him about his family this summer.

When Deidre told him about their other siblings(兄弟姐妹)and showed him Buddline’s picture, John couldn’t believe his eyes because he then knew Buddline was the saleswoman in the supermarket. Soon John and Buddline made up for the lost time they spent as just a customer and a sales woman.

All five siblings met face to face for the first time in October. “I walked in and I was just kind of speechless,” John said. “The conversation got going after a while, but we all just looked at each other and we all look alike.”

In just a matter of weeks, John, who had no kids of his own and lost his adoptive parents(养父母)last year, got four siblings and “at least” ten nieces and nephews. “I gained a huge family,” said John, the eldest sibling.
