Facts About Us
Hello viewers, welcome to on amazing strange psychology facts. In this article we will talk about five interesting psychology facts.
Fact 1: Our favourite subject is our selves. Do you know what narcissism is? It is extreme interest in one self. Such narcissist people tend to advertise themselves and always put themselves in front of anything. It is actually a mental state. They act the way they do because their brain is wired like wise.
Hence if you see a person talk about their own achievements, don't blame them. According to a study done by Harvard, the reward centres of the brains of such people light up more, when they talk about themselves than when they talk about other people. 
Fact 2: Why do we squeeze cute things. What do you do when you see a fluffy toy or chubby baby? Most of us rush to squeeze the toy or the chubby baby. This is called cuteness aggression. Research published in Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience found that when we're feeling overwhelmed by positive emotions like we do when we look at a cute baby or a toy, we develop a little bit of aggression. This reflex aggression helps us balance out the high caused by the extreme positiveness. 
Fact 3: Our brains try to make boring speeches more interesting. All the people who hear things in their head or not mad. University of Glasgow researchers found that like we hear voices in our heads when we read aloud, our brains also talk over boring speeches.
It is actually quite normal. You would have felt this when you are sitting in a boring lecture or conference. You will hear your own voice taking over your concentration and giving a voice over the actual speech. You might try to argue or make it more interesting by redoing it in your mind.
Fact 4: Some people enjoy seeing anger in others. Some people keep irritating others, continue teasing even after the receiving person is clearly agitated. There is a very weird psychological reason behind it. In a study conducted by the University of Michigan, researchers found that people with high testosterone, remembered information better when it was paired with an angry face than a neutral one.
The researchers said it could mean that certain people enjoy making someone else glare at them, as long the flash of anger does not last long enough to be a threat. Maybe because that is why some people keep repeating the same old jokes though we clearly do not like it.
Fact 5: We automatically second-guess ourselves when other people disagree. It is a very common mental situation we face in everyday life. You get ready for an interview impeccably, wearing a carefully chosen outfit. Once you step out of the room, your mom expresses a slight disagreement over the choice of your clothes.
How would you feel? Though you know that you have dressed your best, you start to second-guess yourself. The same goes for everything from the presentation you have prepared to the car you bought. This human nature was proved in a famous Asch conformity experiment conducted in 1950s. Three lines of different length were drawn on a board.
A fourth line was added at a later time and a group of college students were asked to point out which of three lines was the same length as the fourth. Though some students found the right answer when they saw the nearby student pointing out a different line, they second-guessed themselves and changed their answer too.
This is what happens when you do not trust yourself completely. Always trust yourself and do not let too many external forces influence you. Click on the links to view other Interesting facts on psychology.
