Experiments suggest that contagious yawning is related to a person's self-awareness and ability to see things from another person's view. In the words of Dr. Platek and his colleagues:
"Seeing or hearing about another person yawn may tap a primitive neurological substrate responsible for self-awareness and empathic modeling which produces a corresponding response in oneself."
So, are you a victim to contagious yawning? Do you have the uncontrollable earge to yawn when you see others do it? Does the mere sight of the word "yawn", make you yawn?
Be honest, if you just yawned, post a reply!
*yawn*
