Is it true that men who are tall earn more money than those who are short? I believe that this statement can further improve the confidence of those short people. In fact, although this is a study, the results have not been taken seriously by many institutions, but at least it can be used as some reference. In fact, tall men are more entrepreneurial than short men, and have more advantages. The Men's Channel of Medical Search and Medicine Network will introduce the principle that men are taller to make more money than shorter.
Everyone seems to have reached a consensus on whether this is a face - watching world. Compared with ordinary people, people with high looks get better salaries, more opportunities and are more popular in social activities. However, some recent studies have shown that there seems to be a certain correlation between male height and salary.
According to the research, in western countries, if you increase your height by 10-12 cm, your salary will also increase by 9% - 15%. Another analysis report pointed out that the height of 3 centimeters can make people in high positions earn more than 800 dollars a year. A researcher said in his book: "If you put it into a 30-year career and look at it again, in theory, the income advantage of a tall man can amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars." The study also pointed out that in the height advantage, men have a slightly greater advantage than women.
The height advantage of 3 cm seems to be very profitable, right? According to the research of Yu Yan, the height advantage of 5 cm seems to be more obvious. According to a recent study, the biggest difference in height advantage between men is 163 cm compared with 168 cm, and there is no difference in height above 183 cm.
In a recently released study, the answer seems to be coming to light. The authors of this study are economist Andreas Schick and Richard Steckel of Ohio State University. They analyzed the tracking data of a group of people born in 1958 in the United Kingdom and found that both cognitive and non-cognitive abilities could independently explain the wage gap in height.
According to their explanation, height can reflect whether the child is nourished enough to be raised. Height is related to nutrition, which affects intelligence development, and intelligence is very useful for non-cognitive skills. It sounds very reasonable
In addition to this consideration, Schick and Steckel also extended the reason to some correlation studies. For example, for every 2 inches of height increase in children, their cognitive and non-cognitive ability gap is equivalent to the difference between lower social families and middle class families. Moreover, boys who were considered "attractive" at the age of 11 will earn 6.5% more money than their peers in their thirties, and girls will earn 10% more.
Experts found that the benefits of height are not only reflected in money. A study found that there is also a link between career and height by analyzing the data collected by the German government. For every inch of height increase, the person is more likely to start his own business rather than stay in the office and listen to the boss.
