The Awkward Teenage Years…And Beyond: Study Reveals That a Lack of Tact is Worse Than a Lack of Popularity

As if fitting in wasn't hard enough, with the graceless onslaught of puberty, hormones, and pimples. Add social awkwardness to the mix and things just seem to go from cute and kooky to humiliating – and this pattern can continue into adulthood. Recent research from PsychTests reveals, however, that learning a crucial social skill – tact – can make a major difference in a person's life satisfaction, even if they aren't very high on the social ladder.

Collecting data from 1,548 people of all ages who took their Big Five Personality Test, researchers compared four distinct groups:

According to PsychTests study, these four groups differed in a number of areas, including their personality, mental health, social/relationships skills, and values:

Have seen a therapist in the last 2 years:

Don't cope well with stress:

Don't cope well with change:

"Drama Queens":

Pushy:

Good self-esteem:

Outspoken and opinionated:

Easy to talk to:

< /p>

Make friends easily:

Prefer to hang out with people from their own culture/of their own ethnicity:

Get into conflicts/arguments on a weekly basis:

Believe that lying in relationships (to friends, family, partner) is fine:

Keep promises:

Go out of their way to better themselves:

Self-absorbed:

"Tact doesn't just contribute to better interactions and relationships," explains Dr. Jerabek, president of PsychTests. "If you're tactful, you're more likely to get along with people and they with you – which means that when you need social support to get through a difficult time in your life, you'll at least have a few people to turn to. This is why the two tactful groups seemed to fare better in terms of their emotional health. Yes, being popular means your social network is wider, but if you're a nice person, you're more likely to draw other nice people to you. In this day and age of 'trolling', where people feel free to voice hatred and venomous insults from behind the safety of their computer screens, it's refreshing to know that for many people, tact is still considered important."
