Study Finds Film Enjoyment Is Contagious

Study Finds Film Enjoyment Is Contagious:"Hugh
Pickens writes "A report from Science Daily says that
scientists have proven that the presence of other
people may enhance our movie-watching experiences by
influencing and gradually synchronizing viewer
emotional responses. This mutual mimicry also affects
each participant's evaluation of the overall
experience — the more in sync we are with the people
around us, the more we like the movie. In a series of
experiments, researchers found that people watching a
film together appeared to evaluate the film within
the same broad mood and another study found that
synchrony of evaluations can be traced to glances at
the other person during the film and adoption of the
observed expressions. 'By mimicking expressions,
people catch each other's moods leading to a shared
emotional experience. That feels good to people and
they attribute that good feeling to the quality of
the movie,' said one researcher."

BBC Rules That Wi-Fi Radiation Findings Were
Wrong:"Stony Stevenson writes "A Panorama
programme claiming that Wi-Fi creates three times as
much radiation as mobile phone masts was
'misleading', an official BBC complaints ruling has
found. The team involved in the research came under
fire from the school where the 'investigations' were
held for scaremongering, but now the BBC has come out
with an official ruling. 'The programme included only
one contributor (Professor Repacholi) who disagreed
with Sir William, compared with three scientists and
a number of other speakers (one of whom was
introduced as a former cancer specialist) who
seconded his concerns.'"
