Are you shy? If you are, you are not alone. In fact, nearly 50 percent of people are shy. Now, scientists are trying to understand shyness. They have some interesting ideas about why people are shy.
Is it possible to be born shy? Many scientists say yes. Interestingly, these shy babies usually have shy parents. As a result, scientists think that shyness is sometimes genetic(遗传的).
Family size might cause people to be shy as well. Scientists found that 66 percent of shy children had older brothers or sisters. At the same time, children with no brothers or sisters may be shy as well. Growing up alone, they often play by themselves. They are not able to learn the same social skills as children from big families.
You may also be shy because of where you were born. Scientists found surprising differences about shyness in different countries. In Japan, most people said they were shy. But in Israel, only one of three people said so. What explains the differences? One scientist says the Japanese and Israelis have different opinions on failure.
