Alumnos del colegio Luis Rosales conmemoran la aprobación de la Constitución en la Facultad de Ciencias Políticas

  • Con motivo de la conmemoración de la aprobación de la Constitución de 1978, la Facultad de Ciencias Políticas y Sociología de la Universidad de Granada y el Colegio Público Luis Rosales han celebrado juntos esta efeméride.

Los estudiantes de 4º, 5º y 6ª curso de Primaria del Colegio Público Luis Rosales han realizado una simulación de debate parlamentario en el Aula Constitución 1812 “La Pepa” de la Facultad de Ciencias Políticas y Sociología.

Los estudiantes, que representaban distintos grupos parlamentarios, han consensuado y aprobado el artículo 14 de la Constitución, que trata sobre la igualdad de los ciudadanos.

NOSE HEATS UP WHEN YOU LIE: DNEWS NUGGET

Your nose might not grow each time you lie, but it does heat up. Researchers at the University of Granada used a thermal camera to image people as they told a lie. The scientists found that the area around the nose and in the orbital muscle in the inner corner of the eye tends heated up. They dubbed the phenomenon the «Pinocchio effect.»

In addition, a brain element called «insula» — which is a component of the brain reward system — activates. Concealing thoughts stimulates insula and makes a person’s face heat up. This information could be used by lie-detecting cameras to catch untruthful people.

Like Pinocchio, When You Lie, Your Nose Gives You Away

Like Pinocchio, when a person lies, their nose reveals the fib, new research shows. The area on and around the nose increases in temperature, giving away the anxiety lurking below the surface of an otherwise cool facade. This increase in temperature also occurs when other mental efforts are at play, such as performing a difficult task or being rigorously interrogated.

A brain element called the insula triggers this reaction. This part of the brain plays a role in detection and regulation of body temperature, the researchers write, and is also linked to emotional feeling. Local temperature changes, they found, are associated with the physical, mental and emotional state of their subjects. In a way, the researchers think that a person’s thermal state lends insight into what he is feeling or thinking.

When it comes to telling lies, the research subjects’ noses lit up with a bright red flush. While this change is less obvious than Pinocchio’s extending nose, it turns out our faces do give us away when we’re trying to pull a fast one, in a way more akin to Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.

Like Pinocchio, your nose shows when you lie

Much like Pinocchio , your nose could reveal that you’re lying, though unlike the beloved character, your nose will heat up instead of growing longer when you tell a fib, new research claims.

Psychology researchers from the University of Granada in Spain used thermography to study the temperature of people’s faces in experiments. They said they found a jump in the temperature around the nose and in the orbital muscle in the inner corner of the eye during lying. They also found that face temperature drops for people performing a difficult mental task and rises for people experiencing high anxiety.

The researchers said these effects could have something to do with the insula, a region of the brain involved in consciousness as well as the detection and regulation of body temperature . Lying boosted activity in this region, the team said. [ Why We Lie ]

Sexual excitement heats genitals, while lying heats nose, new study says

A new study has revealed that one’s nose tends to heat up when the person is lying.

Researchers at the University of Granada in Spain used thermography to test a range of human experiences including sexual excitement and lying.

The study found that when someone lies, a brain element called «insula» (also called «insular cortex») is activated, raising the temperature around the nose, said Science Blog.

The researchers found a negative correlation between insula activity and temperature increase in the face.

They have dubbed the phenomenon the «Pinocchio effect.»

Using thermography, the researchers also found that the face cools during mental effort but heats up during stress – often a component of lying, said PopSci.

Arousal in men and women showed the heating of the chest and genitals.

The researchers said that men and women both get excited at the same time despite women saying otherwise, reported Yahoo News.

Thermography uses special cameras that measure heat.

It’s used for numerous endeavors from night vision for soldiers to measuring heat loss in buildings.

It was invented in the US during the Second World War.

The study has yet to be published in a peer-reviewed journal.

Pinocchio effect: Hot nose the sure sign of a liar?

Telling lies may not make your nose grow like Pinocchio’s , but it does leave the tip of your nose hotter, scientists claim.

Researchers said a rise in anxiety produced by lying will increase the temperature of the tip of your nose.

If you’re worried that your fib will be uncovered, researchers suggest a way of cooling the nose down — making «a great mental effort» .

Scientists, from the University of Granada, discovered the phenomenon by using thermal imaging cameras to monitor volunteers, the ‘Daily Mail’ reported.

They have dubbed it «The Pinocchio Effect» , in honour of the 19th century Italian tale of the wooden puppet whose nose grew when he failed to tell the truth.

Emilio Gomez Milan and Elvira Salazar Lopez suggest that the temperature of the nose increases or decreases according to mood, as does the orbital muscle area in the inner corner of the eyes.

They also said thermal imaging can detect sexual desire and arousal in men and women, indicated by an increase in temperature in the chest and genital areas.

Liars’ noses may not grow, but they are feeling the heat

It doesn’t outright glow — and it doesn’t grow — but researchers have confirmed the human nose heats up a tad when we lie.

It’s been dubbed the Pinocchio effect and was studied by a team at the University of Granada that used a combination of psychology and sophisticated thermography.

Researchers Dr. Emilio Gomez Milan and Dr. Elvira Salazar Lopez, working out of the university in Granada, Spain, are pioneers when it comes to combining psychology and thermography.

Thermography is a technique that uses specialized cameras to photograph where heat is emitted by a given subject or object (buildings, motors, animals, humans). The pictures are then printed with various colours depicting the amount of heat in any specific area.

White denotes the warmest areas; reds and yellows point to intermediate temperatures; and blue represents the coolest spots.

In a doctoral thesis recently completed by the two researchers, they say when a person lies they experience an increase in the temperature around the nose and at the orbital muscle at the corner of the eye.

The two say that when a «mental effort» is made while performing difficult tasks, such as being interrogated and even lying, face temperature changes due to a series of complex biological reactions.

When individuals perform considerable mental effort their face temperature drops. When anxiety is involved — such as when a person is telling a lie — temperature rises.

The pair also determined the thermal footprint of aerobic exercise and different dance modalities such as ballet.

They found through the thermal imaging that when a person is dancing the flamenco the temperature in the dancer’s buttocks drops but increases in the forearms.

It’s called a «thermal footprint» with each different dance displaying a unique pattern.
