This factor is No. 1 when trying to maintain and improve your social relationships

One of the fundamental factors for all human beings, after solving the most elementary needs such as food and housing, is that of human relationships; and that is one of the senses of the famous phrase of Aristotle that defined us as "political animals", that is, animals that need to live in society. That is why it is so important to maintain and improve your social relationships , something that is not always easy to achieve, especially if you do not know this simple rule that we will talk about next. This factor is No.1 when trying to maintain and improve your social relationships Emma Seppala is Scientific Director of Research and Education for Compassion and Altruism at Stanford University, and author of several books on human relations and the elements that favor or hinder these interactions. For example, in terms of the most basic relations-and at the same time complex-between humans, such as those between men and women, Seppala does not agree with the psycholo...

Why does the sound of dripping water make you want to urinate?

The water dripping noise , that soft and more or less rhythmic sound, even a soft tap water jet , is an excellent motivator for the bladder .In some cases it is very practical, but in others it can be a huge problem. But what makes us react like this when we hear the water? Why do we feel like urinating when we hear it? In this article you will find out. How the urine control mechanism works When people urinate, urine goes from the bladder to the urethra through narrow ducts.This current is controlled by the sphincters, some muscles that act as brakes on these tubes, so that they do not reach the urethra (as if they were a tap that opens and closes). The first of these muscles, the internal sphincter, is in the upper part of the urethra, next to the bladder, and they are automatically controlled by our nervous system.When our bladder is full, a message is sent to the internal sphincter , telling him to relax and open the floodgates.But so that the urine does not escape ...

Why do we hear "hidden messages" when listening to music backwards?

Have you ever heard music backwards? What do you think happens? In today's article we want to talk to you about what, in the 60s, became a fad. In 1969, Beatles fans had the strong conviction that one of their leaders, Paul McCartney was dead and this fact was being hidden from public opinion. The evidence supporting that belief was the "mysterious messages" that were hidden in the lyrics of his songs when they were heard backwards. In the song "Revolution 9" you hear the phrase "excite me, dead man" in English when the audio is played in reverse.That is one of the messages that made believe that McCartney was dead.But even if all these statements have been categorically denied, we can still find videos on YouTube with Beatles songs played backwards.Have you heard any? If you do, you will realize that these messages are clearly there, another thing is that they mean what they say they mean. Then, if we listen to those messages when we hear th...

The most abundant bird on the planet

On a previous occasion Science Daily Online I published an article about a curious variety of chicken, which was 100% black.Now we will talk a little about the origins of the chicken and how it dispersed throughout the world. "In writing hen one" In Around the day in eighty worlds the writer Argentine Julio Cortazar included a brief science fiction story, in which a chicken tells how, thanks to a NASA experiment, her sisters become intelligent and decide to take over the planet, even if they still do not control the syntax. It is not something that should be completely disdained, if we consider that at this time there should be approximately thirteen billion chickens, roosters and chickens , which makes this species the bird more abundant s work the land.

Why do we remember the pain?

Like many other great findings about science, the discovery about the reasons we remember the pain was a coincidence.From these first Discoveries have conducted different research on pain and suffering as well as on pain memory and chronic pain . In 1954, two researchers at McGill University in Canada accidentally discovered how humans learn to repeat a behavior that is beneficial for our survival. An electrode implanted in the brain of a rat had slipped from its intended place and stopped in the medial beam of the anterior brain , a group of nerve cells that reach from the depths of the brain to the prefrontal cortex.After receiving a series of desc electric argas , the rat showed great interest in the area where he had been exploring when he received the first jolt. At first, the researchers, James Olds and Peter Milner, they thought they had found the region of the brain responsible for governing curiosity. But after conducting further research, Olds and M...
