![]() ![]() Several experiments describe the human response to these signals, even in the absence of contact with the original source of the signals.įindings from a study in the Netherlands indicate that chemosignals produced by individuals who felt fear generated an interesting reaction among volunteers who were exposed to the chemosignals. Interesting research suggests that the nervous system can pick up on chemical signals in a physical space that may ultimately have something to do with that feeling of good or bad vibes.Ĭhemicals and their effect on human emotions It turns out that chemosignals, which are present in sweat and tears, can remain in the surrounding environment. The science of this phenomenon is the study of emotional residue, which explores whether an environment inherently “contains” left over evidence of previous emotions. Moreover, there is a common human experience of learning that an environment one has deemed good or bad with too little evidence indeed turned out to be an environment that was filled with correspondingly positive or negative events in the past. Similarly, there are places that are considered by many to be unproductive or unhappy. Unexplained good and bad vibes Although there are cognitive explanations for why people pick up on negative or positive environmental cues, there are still unanswered questions about why some places seem to have a positive “something” while other places seem to have a corresponding, yet illogical, negative “something.” For example, people may judge a room, a house, or an office as a comfortable space (ie, environment), promoting overall emotional stability or productivity. Both of these explanations lie in the brain’s ability to cognitively process a variety of sensory inputs to reach a conclusion. The feeling that something “feels right” or that something “just isn’t right” has been attributed to factors ranging from strong instincts to subconsciously picking up on subtle facial expressions and vocal tones. The perception of good vibes and bad vibes is among the most difficult human experiences to define.
