Our use of social media influences and changes the way our brains work much more than we realize. Our habits are the problems that plague many of us right now. to distraction and distraction affects our habits. In short, it gets into a cycle.

“What does this have to do with TikTokok or Reels where two different videos are playing?” Looks like we hear you say. If you learn the reason quickly no matter how logical it is you will see!

First of all, if you’ve never come across the videos we mentioned, let’s give you an example to show you what it’s like:

The problem of our time is lack of attention…

Today’s lifestyle and our use of social media inevitably draw us into the problem of attention deficit. People who suffer from attention deficit The working speed of the frontal lobe (front brain) of 85-90%, It starts falling very quickly after you pay attention.

So if you have an attention deficit, 5-10 seconds after you start watching a video Attention deficit plays a role. What is said and what happens in the video loses its meaning and after a while you don’t even notice what is being said anymore.

When two videos are played at the same time or an image is played behind a sound, we are playing a trick on our front brain.

When another video is posted below, the brain disconnects from the video above but remains in the video below. So even if we don’t watch the video above our level of attention We continue to understand what we hear because it is loud at that moment.

Basically, if we can’t focus our attention on just one stimulus, we are presented with another stimulus so we can focus our attention on that stimulus. So the video for longer We can monitor.

So why are these videos mostly car racing or ASMR slime?

In car racing videos; The car constantly passes the tracks, competes with other cars, completes missions. So our brain The necessary dopamine is released and helps us maintain our attention.

Similarly, in ASMR videos (content that relaxes and ‘tickles’ our brains by triggering us with different sounds or images), our brains secrete dopamine and to stay at that moment makes it much easier.

Are you one of those who can keep their attention high while watching these videos, or are you one of those who are more distracted? Come on comment. 🙂
