What Season of The Year Were You Born In?

[Wehttam]

I was reading the other day about a study where they analyzed the science behind luck, extrovertedness and positivity in peoples personalities,

It said that people born in the more warmer months (supposing there wasn't any genetic or environmental factors involved) of the year usually developed to grow up more outgoing in life and were called "sensation seekers", they were considered "luckier" because they were open minded about everything, liked to try new things (eg:, rarely watched the same movie twice), lived longer and had more vivid minds than the rest,

To prove the theory that everyone in life had the same amount of luck but the "sensation seekers" were the only ones that managed to take advantage of theirs, they gave a group of people magazines and asked them to find a specific photo of a mountain in it, what they didn't tell them though was that in one of the pages there was a reward prize that read in big bold letters; "If You Show This Page To The Researcher, You Will Be Rewarded With $100".
80% of the people who claimed the prize turned out to have been born in the warmer months of the year (around July for people in the Northen Hemisphere and December for the Southern), while the cold month babies only followed the specific instructions of trying to find the photo without using the curiosity the others did.

Their extrovertedness also allowed them to get out there more and meet other people which therefore increased their "luck" in finding jobs, in relationships, friends to help them ect..

It is thought that babies who are born in the warmer months are less attached to their mothers and more independent due to the heat, while winter month babies are more nurtured, taking cared of with more attention (if they are wearing the right clothes...how many blankets they have ect..) and held in the arms of their parents more cause of the cold climate,

I thought it would be interesting to see if theres some validity behind it all, and what better place to ask than here? lol

That's so interesting!! I want to look into it more!

That's an interesting theory. Particularly the part about winter babies being held more closely/summer babies being more free. I wonder if that actually has any effect.

I was born on September 22, which is usually either the last day of summer or the first day of fall. I've always considered it a fall birthday either way, though, and for the purposes of the theory it definitely makes me a fall/winter baby.

Summer baby here. Not sure if I believe what is said about those born in warmer months. Most of it doesn't apply to me.

I am born i august even though it is a warm month here in Iceland it would be rather cold for Australians, the average temp at summer here is 12°C/53.6°F

Mine is also one that can sometimes be the start of summer. I have always considered my birthday a (very late) spring birthday.

[steelmyhead]

I was born in the Spring. April, to be precise.

Summer, I'm a July baby

March 17, which is technically winter, even though it's so close to spring. And especially here in Michigan it's pretty chilly, sometimes very cold, up until middle to late May. I'm not sure being given more attention as a baby contributed to dependency, though.

Summer that's why I'm so hot.

Near the end of Summer here, in February.
