An example of anthropomorphism in a scientist' explanation:
"'From a chemical point of view, aromatic molecules are boring,' says Igor Alabugin from Florida State University, US. 'They are too stable, they're happy with themselves,' he says. … Alabugin adds. 'Antiaromatic molecules are anxious, reactive, always ready to surprise you.'"

Dr Igor Alabugin, Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry, Florida State University reported in: Mitchell Crow, J. (2024). Illuminating antiaromaticity. Chemistry World, 21(5), 42-47. https://www.chemistryworld.com/features/illuminating-antiaromaticity/4019362.article
(This could almost be understood as an analogy, with aromatic and antiaromatic molecukes mapping onto different personality types.)
