And in other news, every single person involved in this study necessarily must go F##K themself, and later become victim to a random act of violence. Death is completely acceptable during any assaults that may arise
To the people who did this study: You are academically worthless and deserve to live in a project or some other hell for the rest of your lilly-livered life!!! Now go get one...
happiness is contagious?
Once again, a study that claims one thing is the cause of another and ignores the fact that the opposite may be true. People who are happiest tend to gravitate toward other people who are happy and those people tend to have happy friends. There is no reason to think the happiness of friends' friends causes your own happiness. Didn't these people ever take a junior high school logic course?
Beat Me To It
I was going to comment on the frivolous,inconsequential and unscientific nature of this "study", but somebody already beat me to it. But that's fine. I'm glad I'm not the only one that recognizes this total waste of time and money. Highly educated people that engage in survey studies are dumbing down the whole concept of science.
Common Sense In Low Supply
When poeple need a study to tell them obvious truths like. People need sleep. Too much stress is not good for the body. Pollution kills. And know my personal favorite: Happiness is contagious. A person needs only to have lived 1 year to figure that out. Unless the researchers were surrounded by unhappy people and were curious if there was any benefit to having some happy people around!
