中國面相學是一種科學嗎？大學生面相、心理資本、與學業成績之效標初探研究

A Preliminary Study on the Relationship among College Students’ Physiognomy, Psychological Capital, and Learning Achievement

中國面相學雖在華人世界廣為流傳，但卻始終缺乏科學根據，無法在學術文獻中展露頭角。西方學術界2000 年起出現面相研究，但未見將面相特徵與客觀指標關連進行驗證。本研究以大學生為研究對象，邀請面相專家針對學生照片五官特徵進行評分，再與學生心理資本自評問卷進行相關分析。結果顯示，觀看「眼／鼻型」（判讀「創意能力」）與「樂觀」有正向關係；觀看「眼／額頭」（判讀「記憶力」）與「樂觀」有負向關係；觀看「眉／鼻型」（判讀「努力程度」）與「自信」有負向關係；觀看「眉／嘴型」（判讀「責任心」）則與「學業成績」有正向關係。

Chinese physiognomy is widely circulated in the Chinese world, but it can’t be exposed in the academic literature since lack of scientific evidence. Western physiognomy research exhibits from 2000, but seems lack of the evidence between the relationship of face characteristics and objective indicators. In this study, we exam the relationship between college students’ self-evaluation and facial features scores from physiognomists. The results show that “eye/nose” (interpretation of “creativity”) and “optimism” have positive relationship; “eye/forehead” (interpretation of “memory”) and “optimism” have negative relationship”; “eyebrow/nose” (interpretation of “effort”) has negative relationship with “self-confidence”; “eyebrow/mouth” (interpretation of “responsibility”) has a positive relationship with “academic achievement”.
