Convivenza o matrimonio? Il cervello conosce la differenza

Posted in IT
Una recente ricerca ha evidenziato che la scelta matrimonio è correlata ad numerosi benefici per la salute che non si presentano nei soggetti che hanno scelto la convivenza. Lo studio afferma che le cellule cerebrali (neuroni) sono costantemente in uno “stato d’allerta” se non percepiscono un adeguato coinvolgimento da parte dei membri della coppia nel vivere la convivenza. Il nuovo studio ha utilizzato la risonanza magnetica funzionale (fMRI) per esaminare il cervello di conviventi e coniugi eterosessuali, così come le coppie dello stesso sesso, la metà delle quali si consideravano sposate, nonostante >>>

«Ein ganz wichtiges Zeichen für Patienten» – Tages

Posted in DE

Es hat im vergangenen Jahr ein Gesinnungswandel stattgefunden, der diese erfreuliche Entwicklung möglich gemacht hat. Vor allem auf der Stufe der Spitäler, aber wohl auch in der Bevölkerung.

How to find love: Search for a soulmate involves four ‘key factors’

Posted in EN
Earlier this month, Transport for London raised its fares as it invariably does most years, this time by the slightest of increases: one per cent. Nevertheless, it made an already highly expensive travel network incrementally more expensive still, and in doing so unwittingly rendered the process of matchmaking yet more insular. According to Viren Swami, Professor of Social Psychology at Anglia Ruskin University, geography is one of the four key factors in how we go about choosing the people we fall in love with (the others are appearance, reciprocity and similarity). Mostly, single people >>>

HSMAI: De psychologie van het (online) verleiden en overtuigen (15 februari …

Posted in NL
Dat we steeds afhankelijker worden van de ‘gunfactor’ is geen nieuws natuurlijk. Wél de manier waarop deze steeds meer beïnvloed wordt. Namelijk online. Niet voor niets worden de meningen en ervaringen van mensen via sociale netwerken steeds vaker als eerste getoond (zie bijvoorbeeld Booking.com). Waarom? Mensen zijn erg gevoelig voor de mening van anderen. Nogal relevant natuurlijk in een digitaal tijdperk waarin steeds vaker producten en diensten via het internet worden aangeschaft. Maar hoe kun jij jouw doelgroep on- (en offline!) heb beste verleiden en overtuigen? Welke universele ‘beïnvloedingsprincipes’ >>>
