Why does it seem to have someone in an empty room

When you are alone in a dark room, you remember this feeling, but it seems to have someone else in it. This is not just an accident. Scientists explained who scared you in such moments.

It turns out that all this is the games of the person’s mind. Scientists from the University of Masarik in the Czech Republic are a reaction to blurry signals under sensory deprivation conditions. The results of the study are published in Religion, Brain and Behavior Publication.

126 students attended the experiment in a dark room with a bandage in front of our eyes and Berushas. The participants were randomly divided into two groups, one of which was warned about a possible random guest and was not the other. After the experiment, scientists measured the physiological arousal level of the participants using the skin-galvanic reaction and conducted a survey.

The key factor for the feeling of “the existence of someone else” was internal uncertainty: the higher the level of anxiety, the more the participants were one of the nearby. Participants with advanced imagination lived more frequently, while fantasy fantasies gave less reports.

According to the authors, such sensations are a normal reaction of the brain to uncertainty. Aside, the author of Nenadalova’s work is evolutionically arranged to the detection of potential threats, even if they are not there to quickly respond in the event of real danger, ”he says.

Scientists emphasize that this is not a hallucination or pathology, but is the result of the process of the brain of weak or uncertain signals under uncertainty conditions. In further studies, it is planned to examine the impact of worldview and religious beliefs on the content of such sensations and the reasons for the “existence” sometimes seemingly appear.

Recently, it was known that Zukers and Millenniians have forgotten how to concentrate on tasks. Now there is enough attention for two words.
