A recent study suggests middle children may develop personality traits that make them "better" than their siblings, including qualities such as honesty, humility, and agreeableness. This challenges longstanding stereotypes that often perceive middle children as less favored and grappling with "Middle-child syndrome"—the belief they receive less attention from parents. While the debate over birth order's role in shaping personality continues, this research, based on the HEXACO Personality Inventory, provides new insights that could shift perceptions of middle children in family dynamics and psychological development.
Middle children, according to a new study, tend to grow up more honest, humble, and agreeable than their siblings, challenging traditional stereotypes.
The research adds to the debate over birth order's influence on personality, suggesting that being a middle child may have unique advantages.
