Studies on cognition (how we think), development (how we grow and change through time), behaviour (how we act), and neurological processes are all included (how the brain works). Psychology majors also study about many personality theories, social interaction theories, and clinical psychology ideas (how to diagnose and treat mental disorders).

A collection of coded writings called as the Beale Ciphers (named after a prospector named Thomas Jefferson Beale in the early 1800s) are believed to indicate the location of a huge treasure worth $43 million in gold, silver, and gems.

The final of our mirror facts is that some animal species can recognise themselves in the mirror. When determining which animals can see themselves, a mirror test is frequently used to determine the animal's self-awareness. What animals have this self-awareness?

Although many scholars regard the OED as the ultimate authority on dictionaries, the OED requires your assistance. At any given time, the dictionary's editors are researching the history of specific words and phrases, and The OED Appeals allows the public to submit evidence of the earliest record of certain words (via the comments section). Camouflage and Arnold Palmer are two recent entries in the OED, so if you have old books or magazines that mention some strange word, please let the OED know. You might just see your contribution in the next edition of the dictionary.

The man responsible for the creation of arguably the most well-known cartoon character in the world, Mickey Mouse, was afraid of mice! Does it get any more ironic? Walt Disney had a deep-seated fear of the four-legged creatures. But he also saw them as sympathetic. That was why he choose to base Mickey on a mouse. It turned out to be a solid decision from Disney. Mickey Mouse helped turn Disney into one of the world’s biggest entertainment companies. 

San Marino has never been invaded and has always maintained its independence. Cesare Borgia attempted unsuccessfully to seize it in the 1500s and 1700s, and it even resisted joining the Papal State. Fortunately, when the Napoleonic army came in the 18th century, San Marino was a political entity with a republican government. They retained its autonomy while also making economic concessions to it. The three distinctive towers of the old town, which are also featured on the flag, represent the tenacity of the Republic.

Copper in electrical components provides for improved gear and engine control, as well as the expansion of entertainment and sensor systems. The more intricate and efficient the electrical systems of contemporary automobiles are, the more electricity they demand. As a result, more copper.

Because of this, Digboi is also known as the oil city of Assam. Digboi has the oldest oil well in operation. Apart from oil, Digboi is also famous for the Saikhowa Wildlife Sanctuary, the Golf Course, and its War Cemetry.

If you went to your neighborhood Sam Goody or Tower Records on September 24, 1991, chances are you spent your entire allowance on CDs.

Halibut is, indeed, a flat fish. Flatfish can be mottled brown, black, and beige in colour, like the black sea turbot, or spotted, like the blue-and-yellow peacock flounder. The majority of species dwell in the various tropical and subtropical waters.

The noise produced by a jet aircraft during takeoff is millions of times louder than the sound you normally hear. Such thunderous sounds are known as deafening sounds, and they can inflict discomfort and substantial damage to your ears.

Under black lights, bananas glow blue. Ripe bananas appear yellow to the naked eye under normal conditions due to organic pigments known as carotenoids. Chlorophyll begins to degrade as bananas ripen. This pigment is what causes bananas to glow, or fluoresce, under UV light and appear blue. While this is undoubtedly one of the most fascinating facts about bananas, there is another that will make you want to eat a banana every day.

Eel flavoured ice cream and Green Tea Kit Kats are just two of the weird and wonderful flavours you can come across in Japan. Kit Kats are the most popular confectionary (‘Kit Kat’ sounds similar to ‘kitto katsu’, a Japanese saying meaning ‘good luck.’) You can try edamame, wasabi and ginger ale flavoured Kit Kats, too.

Have you heard that formula feeding, maybe with a little of rice cereal in the bottle, fills babies' tummies for longer periods of time, allowing them to sleep longer? While it is true that formula takes longer to digest and hence stays in a baby's stomach longer, this unfortunately does not translate into more sleep for the mother. A research published in Pediatrics by West Virginia University discovered that whether mothers gave their newborns breast milk, formula, or a combination of the two, they all received the same amount of sleep and felt similarly pooped.

When skin loses moisture, it loses suppleness, which can lead to wrinkles. Moisturizers aid by retaining liquid or water from the skin's deepest layers.

The moon used to be a hotspot of volcanic activity. As molten lava from the volcanoes solidified billions of years ago on the lunar surface, it contributed to the formation of distinct craters. NASA stated in 2014 that an Arizona State University team detected "irregular patches" on the moon caused by volcanic eruptions as recently as 50 million years ago. Fortunately, the moon's volcanoes have been dormant since then, so we won't be seeing any eruptions anytime soon.

111 is probably plenty for the team to attain. Most cricket fans, however, thought this score was unfortunate. 111 has the look of a cricket wicket, but some people believe it is a bad omen of something that might happen in the future. Obviously, the charges are never substantiated because there is no evil omen. That seems odd, don't you think?

Malleus Maleficarum became the go-to handbook for both the hysterical masses and witch-hunters on how to deal with a witch. It was a legal and theological document written by two clergymen that offered advice like shaving the witch's hair off her body so she can't hide magical objects. Go figure.
