After the survey, the experts concluded: nothing is more tiring than having to listen to conversations that have nothing to do with you when the next person 'cooks porridge' on the phone. 'People love phone conversations in the form of harassment , ' said TechNewsDaily, quoted by Veronica Galvan, a cognitive psychologist at the University of San Diego (USA).

In order to determine the impact on awareness from the "forced" ear, expert Galvan and colleagues suggested 150 volunteers sort the messy words into meaningful words, such as 'suohe'. into 'house' . While half of the people did the exercises, the scientists acted like they accidentally picked up the phone and said it in the ears of the people who were about to type, half the remaining cases were the two scientists talking directly. continue with each other.

The results showed that the exchange between two people present in the room did not cause headaches by phone conversation, although only discussing the same topic. Although not intentionally, the "victims" are still attracted and miss more words when forced to overhear the phone compared to normal conversation. Explaining the situation, University of San Diego research co-author Rosa Vessal said that because of the direction of the conversation, the overheard felt that phone conversations were noticeable. than. For example, suddenly you hear a person next to you say on the phone that: 'Oh, he checked it out last night' , is enough to be curious.

In the future, experts plan to study the impact of in-ear phone calls on the activities of people who are forced to hear in practice, to examine the extent of the negative impact of this action. , according to the PLOS ONE report.
