Unveiling the Satisfying Phenomenon of Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response
Originally Published 1 year ago — by PsyPost
A new systematic review of scientific literature on Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response (ASMR) reveals it as a clearly defined phenomenon that elicits a consistent experience, characterized by a tingling sensation triggered by specific auditory or visual stimuli. The review identifies whispering, personal attention, tapping, and natural sounds as common triggers and highlights potential therapeutic applications of ASMR, including stress relief and relaxation. However, the review also points out methodological constraints in current research and the need for more rigorous studies to validate initial findings and explore the full impact of ASMR.
