Researchers as the University of Wisconsin
conducted an experiment with girls ages 7 to 12
in which they exposed the girls to the stress of speaking
to a group of strangers.
Afterward, a third of the girls were hugged by their mothers,
a third spoke to mom on the phone,
and a third watched a film.
While measured stress rose in the movie watchers,
the stress in both other groups
dropped equally.
"That a simple phone call
could have this physiological effect on oxytocin
is really exciting."
Co-investigator Seth Pollak told Scientific American.
Your visits make me feel wonderful,
and that's a scientific FACT!
Happy Weekend, cloudia
