W: Hi, Adam, nice tie!
M: Thanks.
W: By the way, can I ask you a personal question?
M: Ask away!
W: How come you’re the only one at the office who wears a tie to work every day? I’m not criticizing your fashion choices, and you don’t have to answer if you don’t want to.
M: No, I’m happy to answer that question! I assume you’re like most people. You prefer to wear comfortable clothing whenever possible, right?
W: Absolutely! If it’s a special event or a business meeting or something, then sure, I’ll put on a suit or a nice business dress. But I much prefer to dress more casually.
M: I understand that logic. But of course you’ve heard about "power dressing", yes or no?
W: Yes. If you wear nicer looking clothes, people take you more seriously, right?
M: That’s the idea. I think everybody knows that the clothing we wear affects how others perceive us. But I’ve also discovered that what I wear affects how I think.
W: Really? That’s an interesting idea. What exactly do you mean?
M: Well, there’s a lot of research out there that says the position of our bodies affects our thoughts.
W: I’ve heard about that. I read an article that said, if you sit up straight, your thoughts become sharper than if you were slouching (低头垂肩地坐/站/走).
M: Exactly! But there are some new studies that show what you are wearing can also affect your thoughts.
W: Give me an example.
M: Scientists found that students who were wearing white lab coats performed better on Tests than students who were wearing their own clothes.
W: Ah! So because the white lab coat has an association with intelligence, the students’ brains actually got more intelligent.
M: Have you ever heard the saying "clothes make the man"? It might be truer than we imagine.
W: When a police officer or firefighter puts on his uniform, it must affect his psychology. It probably gives him a sense of responsibility and authority.
M: Absolutely. When a judge puts on that heavy black robe, it transmits an image of power, and it also serves as a reminder to the judge of the responsibility of his position.
W: I know when I’m wearing a nice suit, I feel a lot more confident. If I’m going out for a night on the town and I’m all dressed up, I feel a lot better about myself than if I was wearing jeans and a T-shirt.
M: Yes. I think putting on a shirt and tie actually affects the way my brain works.
W: That’s a very interesting concept!
M: My eyes look down and see what I’m wearing and my brain gets a reminder that I’m a businessman, and I think the brain responds to expectations.
W: Interesting. Maybe I should start wearing a suit.
