That definitely fits. The character was a beginning model when her powers manifested.
Still, if someone could give themselves an ideal (in their minds) appearance, that would be a major confidence booster.
There could be a polarizing effect. Any shapeshifter you know about is just naturally going to be an extrovert; you just don't hear about the shy ones. So it just seems shapeshifters are naturally outgoing.
There's also the principle that sometimes personality shapes powers. However, in the Masks universe they are generally genetic, so that's rare.
