New research: People who hug often are healthier.
it feels good to hug, you know that, and I know that, but why? It is such a simple and common behavior that it is not so easy to explain it from a scientific point of view. But anyway, according to the current research, this behavior does have many benefits on the emotional level. ,Hypothetically speaking, hugging is thought to be good for us by somehow? buffering? Against the Deleterious Consequences of Psychological Stress. The current conjecture in academic circles is that hugging is beneficial because it can buffer the harmful effects of psychological stress in some way. ,When we hug, we engage in what psychologists call 'interpersonal touch', which in terms of hugging can reduce levels of distress, Help prevent us from getting sick, and have effects that are even more amazing. When we hug, we are in what psychologists call "interpersonal touch", which can reduce our stress level, prevent us from getting sick and provide many other benefits. However, the current research on hugs usually only focuses on the hugs between couples and couples. In order to study hugs in a broader sense, Michael Murphy, a psychologist at Carnegie Mellon University, led his team to study 44 healthy adult men and women, who were interviewed by telephone every night for 14 consecutive days. During the investigation, they asked volunteers to talk about the social conflicts they encountered that day and to describe their positive and negative emotions. , they were also asked to detail their' hug receipt' (the amount of hugs they got, or did not' t get, during that day). They were also asked to specify the "hug reception volume" of the day. (that is, how many hugs they got that day and how many hugs they didn't get), when the researchers * * * yes the responsibilities, they found that receiving a hug on a day that interpersonal conflict was experienced correlated with improved emotional well-being, Pared to days when conflict takes place but no hugs were shared. Researchers found that if you compare the days when you encounter social conflicts but get hugs with those days when you encounter conflicts but don't get hugs, you will find that getting hugs can improve a person's emotional health. "We still have questions about when, how, and for whohugs are most helpful," Murphy said. Murphy said, "We don't know under what circumstances hugs will work, how much they will work, and who they will work for." , "Anyway, our study suggestions that consistent hugs are possible for showing support to someone ending relationship conflict.", "But our research found that if both sides are willing to hug, those who encounter interpersonal conflicts can feel supported." Of course, some people don't like hugging, which is not a problem. But if we are talking about our relatives and lovers, the researchers still suggest that we use hugs to express our support in adversity. They think this is a more effective way than talking, because talking may backfire: for example, it may cause anger, anxiety and depression; This is because your analysis may make them feel that you are questioning their own ability to solve problems. Generally speaking, if you have a close relationship with someone, your wiser choice should be hugging. OK, let's talk about today's words? Buffer, which means "buffer", is both a verb and a noun.
