Alert! Every Research Study Has Value. Who knew?

 
 After all the hours we've spent reading research in endless libraries or slaving over our own,  it's nice to know that we can find value in every research study. Just read on....
 
"Ever walk into a room with some purpose in mind, only to completely forget what that purpose was? Turns out, doors themselves are to blame for these strange memory lapses.

Psychologists at the University of Notre Dame have discovered that passing through a doorway triggers what's known as an Event Boundary in the mind, separating one set of thoughts and memories from the next. Your brain files away the thoughts you had in the previous room and prepares a blank slate for the new locale.

Thank goodness for studies like this. It's not our age, it's that #%* door !"
 
  Who knew?  My respect for all research studies has doubled!
 
 Thanks to Pearl for this enlightening  gift. Although the research summary was sent by a friend, the original source is unknown. Pictures are located in Bing Images.
