Check this out
It would seem that avatar says more about you than you think...
| Quote | Children and tween identity is "encoded" for the most part through physical appearance. So they spend the most time and emotional investment into choosing the exact look of an avatar. They must be one with their avatar and have it represent them. This certainly brings up some good realms of study on how a child or tween self-identifies.
Adult identity is "encoded" through symbolic action. For adults it's not so much about how they look, but what they do. The man makes the clothes, the clothes don't make the man.
For teenagers and young adults both physical and symbolic ways are relevant. "However, due to the design limitations of most visual chatrooms, there is an imbalance between the 'flatness' of avatars' representation and the sophisticated self representation through symbolic action." Meaning teenagers are confused and don't know what they want, which is what being a teenager is all about. |
pretty interesting. Do you agree with the study? |

I dunno what my tells about myself honestly. I mean, I chose this avatar basically because I hadn't made one for myself.... And.. It seems to have just "stuck" with me.
And when I changed to the little smiley face with a joystick people made a topic about MY avatar! lol, saying that I should change it back |
