Moon phases do not affect the psyche

A group of researchers led by Professor Genevieve, Bellevil from Laval University drew Parallels between moon phase and number of patients hospitalized with mental disorder.



Scientists wanted to find out whether in fact the full moon increases the risk of mental disorders. Conducting the experiment, the experts noted that the relationship of panic attacks, anxiety, mental disorders and the phases of the moon is missing.



Also the experts noted that mental disorders appeared in 32% less when the Moon was in the phase of last quarter. "Most likely, it's just a coincidence. But what I can say with full confidence that the full moon has no influence on the human psyche" — insists, Bellevil.
