Scientists suggest the study may lead to better understanding of the risks of being continually connected and available. The study suggests, having phones close means some of our memory power is inevitably expended as we attempt to not be distracted. No doubts that our smartphone becomes more noticeable. When your phone is nearby, your conscious mind isn’t thinking about your smartphone, but that process of requiring yourself to not think about something uses up some of your limited cognitive resources. In other words, it is called as brain drain. TO READ FULL DETAILS CLICK THE LINK BELOW: http://infocontemporary.com/2018/02/20/seeing-phone-nearby-can-mess/ |
