What is cybersickness, the mysterious condition linked to screen use?

You may well have experienced motion sickness or travel sickness in the past. Well, cyber sickness is a modern ailment that follows a similar kind of logic, or rather the opposite logic. Instead of moving while feeling still, like when you’re on a boat or in a car, with cyber sickness you perceive movement while you’re actually still. But the result is the same: your brain fails to adapt to this dissonance, and hence brings on nausea, dizziness, cold sweats, and other balance disorders. This can happen when using a computer, smartphone, or virtual reality headset.What's the similarity with motion sickness ? Why doesn’t it affect all of us then? What can I do if I start feeling unwell in front of my laptop or smartphone screen then?In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions !To listen to the last episodes, you can click here :Are women really more emotional than men?Why are celebrities dissolving their facial fillers?What is the Smurfette Principle?A podcast written and realised by Joseph Chance.In partnership with upday UK.

What is the Golem effect ?

Not long ago we talked about the Pygmalion effect in an episode of Do You Really Know? Well today’s subject is pretty much the exact opposite! The Golem effect is the idea that negative words or assumptions can influence behaviours and transform those assumptions into reality. It’s another type of self-fulfilling prophecy, which sees lower expectations lead to poorer performance and behaviour in individuals. And just like the Pygmalion effect, the term was also coined by Robert Rosenthal, this time in a 1982 paper after having conducted research along with Elisha Babad and Jacob Inbar. The name comes from Jewish folklore, and more specifically the tale of the Golem of Prague. What are the main areas in which the Golem effect can be observed ? What about in relationships?How can we overcome the Golem effect?

Which five foods slow ageing?

Ageing is part of the natural cycle of life, and there’s no such thing as a miracle pill to prevent it. At least not yet !

No doubt you’ve already heard of the benefits of regular physical activity, getting enough sleep and giving up cigarettes or alcohol. But generally speaking, you should prioritise foods that are rich in antioxidants.
