Our hearts play a surprising role in shaping how suggestible we are to others' opinions.
Research indicates that evaluating an event during a heartbeat might lead individuals to doubt their own judgment and be more influenced by others.
The study used two experiments to show that participants were more inclined to change their minds when making judgments during the heart's contraction phase.
The findings illuminate a profound connection between our bodies and our decision-making in social contexts.
