I doubt an adult rocket scientist or engineer is fundamentally different. Deep down he just doesn't give a crap about starving children in Africa.

With your hypothetical scientist, while she might spend her career with rockets, I am not sure that is enough to tell you whether she also does or does not give a crap, deep down or shallowly, about starving children, or what the rough geographical location might be of any she disregards.

People are a lot more varied than that. There is no neat little box marked 'rocket scientist'.
