More than half a billion people use Instagram every day, and research has shown that 64 percent of them have created their "personality online", an alternative version of themselves that they represent only on social media.
Find out what your Instagram profile says about you. Psychologists have concluded that our findings can serve as a kind of "psychological test" that can reveal much about our character.
Experts agree that the photos we most like to publish reflect the aspect of life we idealize and the version of ourselves we consider perfect, writes KosovaPress. Whether you spend hours posing and editing your photos carefully or simply posting a picture without thinking, your Instagram profile is a window into your personality.

All of us among friends have someone who, when he travels somewhere, needs to inform friends about everything he has seen and visited, rather than enjoying the moment. Psychologists believe that such persons require confirmation from loved ones. Landscape photos show that the person on the trip lacks daily confirmation, so he posts photos letting close people know he is better than them, even when he is not there.
Travel photos are the best way to detail your social status and account balance, and it is certain that at least some companions will be addicted.
Selfie
Experts believe that people who post selfies often try to impress followers, as such pictures are always well prepared. Nobody is a bad Selfi. They require careful composition, endless appearances.
successes
When we post "boasting photos", such as those where we have just run a half marathon or taken a tenth in a difficult exam, we show that we need a reward for our achievements, even if reflected in the number of likes. People who post such photos most often want to show that they have achieved some success easily and without much effort, but they want a lot of praise.
shares
Whether in the photo you are dog walking or skiing, you want to show your friendly and courageous side by enhancing the action. Psychologists say posting pictures like this is normal and healthy, but that can become problematic if our confidence depends on the number of likes they collect.
