1Psychоlоgists hаve оbserved thаt some bаbies cry much more than others, and some are much more active than others. 2Some are cuddly, and some seem to dislike being picked up and held. 3Psychologists have also found that newborns are capable of expressing several basic emotions; for example, their faces show different expressions for surprise, distress, and disgust. 4And they have their likes and dislikes: In one experiment, babies only a few hours old showed pleasure at the taste of sweetened water and smell of vanilla, but made faces at the taste of lemon juice and the smell of rotten eggs. 5Through these findings, psychologists have confirmed what parents have always claimed to be true—that their babies seem to have distinctive personalities almost from birth.
