They watched small birds in new environments,and wrote down how much they explored (探索) . Birds that grew up with very outgoing birds were more outgoing themselves. Scientists at the universities of Exeter,UK and Hamburg,Germany did studies on birds. They found that their personalities (個(gè)性) were affected most by the birds around them when they grew up —more so than genes.
