Astrological Signs and Personality Differences
This study examined the relationship between astrological signs and personality traits in 65 268 South African jobseekers (mean age = 24.8 years, females = 59%, Blacks = 98%).

According to theories relating to self-evaluation, people engaged in forming such perceptions about themselves largely depend on information gained through social comparison. However, theories of…
