Formal clothes can change the way you think, according to a new study published in the Social Psychological & Personality Science.
Researchers from Columbia University in New York and California State University, Northridge arrived at their conclusion after conducting five separate experiments designed to measure the relationship between a student’s clothes and their cognitive style. This style refers to the way the brain thinks and processes information; there’s abstract processing and concrete processing. Abstract processing, researchers wrote, “consists of superordinate, holistic, and broad mental representations, whereas concrete processing includes more subordinate and narrow mental representations.”
