today we're exploring a surprising study
0:05
from ey science revealing how high

temperatures impact politicians language

complexity climate change has a lot of
0:11
effects on global well-being and a
0:14
recent study in eye science published on
0:16
June 13th has unveiled a surprising
0:19
addition to its list of impacts the
0:22
study which analyzed 7 million
0:24
parliamentary speeches worldwide reveals
0:26
that high temperatures prompt a notable
0:29
and immediate decline in the complexity
0:31
of politicians language heat has long
0:33
been linked to various negative Health
0:35
outcomes such as decreased productivity
0:39
performance notes risto con kabo from
0:42
the max plank Institute for demographic
0:44
research our study underscores that this
0:47
phenomenon extends to politicians who
0:51
responsibilities Tobias Whitman from
0:54
orus University ads we observed that
0:57
higher temperatures lead to a
0:59
simplification of language in
1:00
parliamentary speeches across eight
1:02
different countries this indicates that
1:05
heat can impair cognitive functions even
1:07
in settings where precise and complex
1:09
language is crucial kabo and Whitman
1:12
arrived at this discovery by analyzing
1:14
millions of parliamentary speeches
1:16
spanning over several decades and
1:18
involving more than 28,000 politicians
1:21
across eight countries they utilized a
1:23
modeling approach that correlated daily
1:26
temperature variations with changes in
1:28
speech complexity one one intriguing
1:30
finding was the more pronounced impact
1:32
on older politicians compared to their
1:35
peers kabu observes this not only adds
1:39
interest but also bolsters the study's
1:41
findings older individuals may be more
1:44
vulnerable to extreme temperatures
1:48
conclusions the study suggests that
1:50
human behavior is influenced not only by
1:52
strategic considerations but also by
1:55
environmental factors future research
1:57
could explore how extreme temperatures
2:00
affect overall productivity and
2:01
performance in politicians potentially
