I am very fair in colour so I Know Growing in fairness includes learning to treat others with respect and kindness, and growing to appreciate the importance of sharing, fighting for others, and being honest. This requires the ability to place ourselves in others’ shoes and feel compassion for other people. |

Out of the character traits we focus on in
Citywise, fairness falls least under the
category of ‘performance’ character and
most under the category of ‘moral’
character. Although the importance of
fairness goes beyond this, developing
fairness necessarily develops the desire to
act towards the greater good of those
around us, and contribute to a society that
is better to live in. |

Interestingly, research shows that growing
in fairness and thinking about others leads
to higher personal well-being. Being fair-
minded helps us develop mutually
supportive relationships with those around
us. Beginning in infancy, we learn the value
of reciprocity, and taking turns in ‘serve and
response’ patterns with our caregivers. This
understanding, of relationships being based
on both ‘giving’ and ‘getting’ or being cared
for and caring for the other, is crucial in
developing good relationships. Why is this
important for our well-being? A nearly 80-
year longitudinal study from Harvard
confirms what personal experience may
suggest, that the number one factor that
promotes our happiness and well-being is
having good relationships. |

Research has also found that showing
fairness and being generous is intrinsically
rewarding. Children as young as 3 years old
understand that sharing can make a person
happy (Paulus & Moore, 2017). As social
animals, our happiness is closely tied to
the happiness of the people around us.
Being a source of joy for the people around
us can also increase our sense of purpose,
which is equally important in promoting our
well-being |

Research has also found that being a fair
person, not just being in a fair environment,
has a positive effect on our academic
achievement. For example, a study of Italian
schoolchildren (Caprara et al., 2000) found
that demonstrating fair and prosocial
behaviour at age 9 was a better predictor of
grades at age 14 than were their grades at
age 9. This is thought to be ‘mediated’ by
wellbeing, which means that the effect
might happen because fairness increases
wellbeing. Specifically, this might occur
because developing fair and mutually
supportive relationships supports positive
development and motivation, which
promote academic achievement, and
reduces vulnerability to depression and anti-
social conduct, which are academically
undermining. |

women are subconsciously attracted to
fairer skin because of its association
with innocence, purity, modesty,
virginity, vulnerability and goodness ,
according to researchers at the
University of Toronto |
