Bu's research does not explain Kate's characteristics triats in Shakespears " Taming of the Shrew" becuase it is only a methodological illusion.
"New research from scientists at the University of Essex, though, uses multilevel modeling techniques to overcome these hurdles, and the results suggest that birth-order effects are more than just a methodological illusion." This proves that birth order does not affects Kathrines characteristics becuase she was born first. Such as the way she thinks and says in what she belives in. Kate is very outspoken for example she says" asses are made to bear and so are you". This is just her charcater, but is not affected due to birth order. The reason is anyone can be like this and everyone is
different.
