Laughter and only: in Amsterdam found differences between children's and adult laughter

Scientists in Holland conducted an unusual experiment that helped find differences in the laughter of children and adults. To understand why children and adults laugh in different ways, researchers from Amsterdam had to record and repeatedly reproduce the laughter of dozens of kids aged from 3 months to one and a half years.

The results of the experiments were published and published in a scientific publication. They showed that children's laughter is more like a human chimpanzee than a human. The kids laugh not only as they exhale, as adults, but also as they inhale, and therefore sometimes the impression is created that the child is "filled up", "choked" with laughter. That is how chimpanzees "laugh".

In the literal sense of the word funny experiment describes the publication Planeta Today. In particular, it is reported that for several weeks, scientists listened to the recording of laughter from 44 babies, and then entrusted the audition to student interns.

Then for a few more days at the University of Amsterdam, we collectively listened to the recordings of chimpanzee laughter. Internet users, in response to information about the intricacies of the experience, noted that in Amsterdam at the state level all conditions have been created to laugh heartily.

The researchers themselves noted that the results of this experience will form the basis global study of the mechanisms of voice development in children, as well as its transformation in adolescence.
