Last year, Professor Richard Wiseman of ScotlandEdinburghIn the town of the city, I dropped 240 wallets containing family photos, baby photos, elderly couple portrait photos, dog pictures, charity cards etc. at various places in the street and how many pieces I will return It is said that.

As a result of the experiment, a total of 42% wallet returned to hand, 88% of wallets with baby photos, 53% wallets with pictures of dogs, 48% with family pictures, Portrait picture of elderly couple was 28%, charity card entrance came back at the probability of 20% from 15%, and the wallet containing the picture of the baby was found to return to hand with considerable probability about.

Professor Wiseman is quite surprised as to the fact that the wallet with the picture of the baby came back with a high probability and is said to be "the manifestation of instinct for a fragile infant" against this result. If this is true, is that even if you do not have children, if you put someone's baby's picture in it, will it be a little relieved?
