It is unclear what is behind the phenomenon but it may be that beauty creates confidence. The self-confident may appear to be doing better than they are and will not hesitate about asking for a pay rise.
Researcher Jason Fletcher, of Yale University in the U.S., rated the attractiveness of the 4,000 men and women. Just over half were judged average, while 7 percent were felt to be very attractive and 8 percent were judged unattractive or very unattractive. The volunteers also sat an IQ test and reported their salary. It became clear that pay scales were far from fair. For instance, a 14- point increase on the IQ score was associated with a 3 to 6 percent increase in wage. But being of above-average looks increased pay by 5 to 10 percent .
For a plain person to be paid the same as a very attractive one , they would have to be 40 percent brighter, the journal Economics Letters reports.
Dr Fletcher said:“The results do show that people ’s looks have an impact on their wages and it can be very important.”

The beauty of software is in its funciion ,in its internal srurcture,and in zhe way inwhich it is created by a team. To a user，a program with just the right features presented through an intuitive and （） interface is beautiful.To a soware designer，an intemal sucre that is partitioned in a simple and intuitive manner，and that minirnÍzes intemal coupling is beautiful.To developers and managers ，a motivated tenof developers makingignificant progress eve week，and producing defect-free code，is beautifu l. There is beauty on all these levels. Our world needs software -- 10ts of syears ago soware was something that ran in a few big and expensive machines. years ago it was something that ran in most companies and industrial settings.
