The fluctuations of your heartbeat may affect your wisdom, according to new research from the University of Waterloo.
The study suggests that heart rate variation and thinking process work together to enable wise reasoning about complex social issues. The work by Igor Grossmann, professor of psychology at Waterloo, and colleagues based at the Australian Catholic University, appears in the online journal Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience.
Their study breaks new ground in wisdom research by identifying conditions under which psychophysiology impacts wise judgment.
