Neural basis of contagious itch and why some people are more prone to it.
Watching someone scratch himself can induce feelings of itchiness in the perceiver.

In this study, we first established that the social contagion of itch is essentially a normative response (experienced by most people), and that the degree of contag...
متن کاملWhy are some representations (sometimes) more effective?

A random sample of 1205 black, white, and mixed-race faces was collected. The...

Evolutionary explanations have been proposed for the persistence of the handedness polymorphism. Left-handedness could be favoured by negative frequency-dependent selection. Data have suggested that left-handedness, as the rare hand preference, could represen...
