      I am not sure about that, but it is an interesting question. My guess is that it would be the opposite, but psychology often uncovers all sorts of things that don’t match what you might expect. Lots of people who appear confident are anything but – so that’s something to think about. We are all worried about the same things.

      I’d say (and most research) points to the opposite!
