People often think that a general description of personality reveals their own characteristics very accurately. Psychologically, this tendency is called Barnum Effect, which is a psychological phenomenon proved by psychologist bertram Fowler in 1948. Its main performance is that everyone can easily believe that a general personality description is especially suitable for him. Even though this description is empty, he still thinks it reflects his personality. In order to avoid Barnum effect, we should know ourselves objectively and truly.
