Across 132 studies and 71,011 people, attachment anxiety was associated with lower relationship satisfaction at r = -.32 and avoidance at -.44; the finding that uncertainty increases attraction comes from one experiment with 47 undergraduates, measured at first impression

Emotional tears may have evolved not merely to express sadness, but to change the behaviour of the people around us — a distress signal originating in infancy that humans carried into adult social life to recruit attention, care and protection.
2+ week, 1+ day ago (1418+ words) A new evolutionary account treats adult emotional tears as an infant-derived distress signal, while experiments show support effects that are real but strongly context-dependent.

A 2024 AARP survey of 1,010 adults aged 50-plus found that 44% believed they had grown happier over time—yet only 22% thought most people do, a striking gap between how ageing feels from the inside and how we imagine it happens to everyone else.
2+ week, 2+ day ago (1642+ words) AARP's 44% versus 22% gap compares a retrospective judgment about one's own life with a belief about other people, while neutral responses and the one-time design limit what it can show.

The people you become friends with may already process the world like you do before either of you says hello — brain responses to the same movie clips predicted who would be friends eight months later
2+ week, 6+ day ago (1601+ words) A longitudinal fMRI study found that pre-existing similarities in responses to movie clips anticipated later friendship-network proximity, although the strongest results were narrower than a universal friend detector.

Cultures that still protect an afternoon rest period aren't fighting biology, they're working with it — chronobiology research suggests the urge to sleep after midday runs on a near-universal internal clock, siesta or no siesta
3+ week, 4+ day ago (980+ words) Published August 19, 2026 · How we edit I wish I could say I have always understood the value of rest, but the truth is almost the opposite. I am usually the person who becomes restless when someone else is doing nothing. Whenever…...
