Scientists have found that feeling shorter makes people more susceptible to feelings of paranoia and inferiority as well as extreme mistrust. A team of researchers from Britain's Oxford University used virtual reality (VR) technology to decrease the height of 60 adult women who were travelling on a computer-simulated Tube train by 25 centimeters. The volunteers who were prone to having "mistrustful thoughts" experienced the same journey for a second time at their normal height. The results of the study indicated that most participants reported negative feelings, such as being incompetent, unlikeable or inferior when they were height-reduced. The researchers added that when in the lower height phase of the experiment, the participants also experienced increased levels of mistrust, fear and paranoia. They were more likely to think someone in the virtual train carriage was deliberately staring at them, had bad intentions towards them or was trying to harm them, the study discovered. This is while the other virtual passengers in the carriage were programmed to be neutral and not do anything to spark feelings of fear or suspect. “Being tall is associated with greater career and relationship success. Height is taken to convey authority and we feel taller when we feel more powerful,” said Professor Daniel Freeman who led the research. “In this study we reduced people's height, which led to a striking consequence: people felt inferior and this caused them to feel overly mistrustful. This all happened in a virtual reality simulation, but we know that people behave in VR as they do in real life,” he added. Freeman further said that the study provides a key insight into paranoia as it shows that people's excessive mistrust of others directly stems from their own negative feelings about themselves. “The important treatment implication... is that if we help people to feel more self-confident then they will be less mistrustful,” he noted. The research was published in the journal Psychiatry Research on Wednesday. MR/NN Comments gina Short MAN are DANGEROUS especially in the WESTERN CULTURE where everything is about competition ,so the short people must catch up and the only tool they have is the 'aggression'. It makes them 'feel' taller.[[]Stalin,Napoleon,Hitler.Trocky,Lenin,the KHAZARS [[]all short].. Tom Lowe "“The important treatment implication... is that if we help people to feel more self-confident then they will be less mistrustful,” he noted."... and then they'll really get screwed good by the people they should have continued to mistrust all along.It's a world full of untrustworthy bullies, and Freeman is blithely ignorant in an ivy covered tower.There is an old saying: "Never insult a little man. He'll kill you." Maybe Freeman should study that one for a while. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
