Theories of Yawning

[BetterPhilippines2015]

---

Little research AFAIK was done why people or some animals, some fetuses yawn. One common observation once naay mo yawn is ang imong mga katupad naay chance mo yawn. It's involuntary. It is like someone is CONTROLLING YOU without you knowing.

If someone can break the code or find the missing link, it will change the world. So simple yet so powerful yet taken for granted ra kaayo ning pagpanguy'ab nato.

Use case: If I can induce VOLUNTARY yawn, then people around me will yawn. What if I induce something like closing my eyes using the principles of yawning? So people around me closes their eyes. It's dangerous.

Some would say "kulang tag oxygen" mao ng mo yawn ta. But how can you explain people nga nag exercise? They need oxygen too but I don't see them yawning.

i don't think you can control someone into blinking by blinking yourself but mimicking body languages is possible.

we usually yawn when we're tired or waking up. but when you're exercising, you're body is active and wide awake. so instead of yawning every time, you just breathe heavily for a while

The question is WHY there is a chain reaction?

[BetterPhilippines2015]

It is probably an unconscious behavior. It is not clear what yawning communicates or what it achieves. But clearly it transmits some information that has some effect on brain networks or behavior - a source

To prove my point about yawning being contiguous

The question is WHY there is a chain reaction?

indirectly, we're on the same time zone/place...dungan ang tingkatog nato...dungan ang tingkapoy...dungan ang tingduka nga oras...

the mystery of contagious yawning is yet to be solved.

There are two reasons of yawning one is the brain is lack of oxygen or it could be the brain lack of glucose,

but talking about if it is contagious yes it is, tested and proven already but not all people responds to these chain of reaction.

before, there was this theory that contagious yawning kuno is a way to show empathy or that it is a sign of fatigue or low levels of energy, but it was found that that may not entirely be the case, according to Duke Medicine. researchers have not yet found a concrete reason why yawning is contagious and why it even happens. what they discovered was that the phenomenon also occurs in animals like chimpanzees, dogs, a particular rat, and, lately, parakeets.
