10 Mysteries and Unexplained of Human Behaviour
- U-Report
VIVA – Some of the human behaviour turned out to be unexplained even for the scientists who have split atoms, placed humans on the moon and discovered the DNA that makes up a person.
The unexplained behaviour such as having shyness, dreaming, kissing and so on are some of the human habits that are difficult to explain and are still a mystery. Here's the explanation.
1. Shyness
Feelings of worry, discomfort, or awkwardness experienced. when there are people near us, approaching or being approached by another person, especially in a new situation or with unfamiliar people. Shyness may come from genetic traits, the environment in which a person was raised and personal experiences.
2. Art
Painting, dance, and music can all be a means to spread knowledge or share experiences. Many believe that the urge to seek aesthetic experiences develops to encourage us to learn about aspects of our brains that have not equipped us to deal with at birth.
3. Adolescence
Adolescence is a transitional period of human physical and psychological development that generally occurs during the period from puberty to adulthood. Some suggest it helps our cerebrum reset itself before adulthood or allows experimentation in behavior before the responsibilities of later years.
4. Picking Nose
One in four teens engage in the habit, an average of four times a day, a study found. The unattractive but common habit of ingesting 'nasal detritus' provides almost no nutritional benefit. So, why do a quarter of teens do it on average four times a day? Some people think it boosts the immune system.
5. Superstition
Superstition is a pejorative term for belief in supernatural causality. That one event leads to another cause without a physical process linking the two events. such as astrology, omens, witchcraft, etc.
Belief in superstitious things is one of the human habits that is often done, until now no one has been able to explain the existence of superstitions. Possibly, it was Religion that took advantage of these habits.
6. Altruism or Selflessness
Altruism or selflessness is the principle or practice of caring for the welfare of others. It is a traditional virtue in many cultures and a core aspect of many religious traditions. although the concept of "others" to whom attention should be directed may vary between cultures and religions.
7. Kissing
It turns out that kissing is one of behaviour that is difficult to explain, there are theories that it has to do with the memory of breastfeeding and that early humans weaned their young by feeding them from their mouths.
Another theory about kiss is that our foraging ancestors were attracted to ripe red fruit and developed red lips to seduce sexual partners. Kiss another person has been shown to reduce levels of the stress hormone cortisol and increase the bonding hormone oxytocin, which is good for health and happiness.
8. Laughter
Laughter can arise from activities such as being tickled, or from funny stories or thoughts. It is considered a visual expression of a number of positive emotional states, such as joy, excitement, happiness, relief, and so on.
Laughter can increase levels of endorphins that make us feel good, helping us to bond with other people.
9. Blushing
There is a unique human habit that is feeling blushed. It is known, this comes from falling in love, or from some kind of romantic stimulation. It is thought that blushing is the result of an overactive sympathetic nervous system.
Charles Darwin explained this and he said blushing is the strangest and most human of all expressions.
However, some people think it was originally used to propagate an aggressive approach by a more dominant individual. Over time it becomes associated with higher emotions such as guilt and shame.
10.Dreaming
Dreaming can help us process and consolidate emotions without the rush of stress hormones that accompany real experiences. They also help with memory and problem solving.
Sigmund Freud's dream theory that expresses our subconscious desires has generally been discredited and acknowledged that they help us process emotions, but the reason why we see such strange visions has not been properly explained.
