When worried, people tend to deviate to the left

People who are experiencing anxiety and inhibition tend to move to the left. That is the conclusion after a recent study by psychological scientists.

A recent study by Dr. Mario Weick from the Department of Psychology at the University. Kent, the United States, shows that people who experience anxiety or inhibition will make the hemisphere more active , thereby controlling the direction of the deviation to the left orbit more.

According to ScienceDaily, Weick tested the activation of both human hemispheres for the first time and evaluated the link with human movement when stimulated. In fact, a healthy person also tends to be distracted in space and appear "biased" in a certain direction. However, the origin of this phenomenon has not been thoroughly explained by scientists.

Weick's research examines both the overall and independent effects of two basic kinetic systems - the behavioral approach system and the inhibitory system (BAS and BIS).

The experiment required four people to be blindfolded and walked in a straight line running along the room to the destination that had been seen before.

Researchers point out that blindfolded people show signs of depression or anxiety that are more likely to deviate to the left. This shows that the right hemisphere of the brain has been quite active and controls the central motor nerve moving the body to the left orbit.

The study also found that two hemispheres are involved in different motivational systems . Then the right hemisphere of the brain inhibits the activity of the left body and vice versa.

The two hemispheres are related to different motivational systems.

This is the first time researchers have established a clear link between inhibition of the right brain. These findings will help a lot in the treatment of some neglected diseases. Usually, people can sometimes be distracted and lose awareness with the surrounding space for a certain period of time. But there are some people who develop symptoms that last long and become a chronic disease.

If this method is used, doctors hope to try to minimize the patient's anxiety. This research by Dr. Mario Weick has been published in the recent Cognition psychological reputation magazine.
