Have you got any qualifications? http://beeg.in.net/ beeg. This yearâs Psychology prize went to the authors of "'Beauty Is in the Eye of the Beer Holder': People Who Think They Are Drunk Also Think They Are Attractive." In that paper, the winning team noted in an experiment that French men who believe they are drunk also believe that they are more attractive. That suggested two things: one, that the âbeer gogglesâ effect applies not just to the sudden object of an intoxicated personâs desire, but to their self-perception, as well. Two, that you donât even have to be intoxicated to experience this effect; you just have to think you are.
