Boston — A new study from Harvard Medical School ranks losing a TV remote control in bed as the 7th top stress cause across the United States. Specifically, psychologists surveyed over 5,000 Americans about daily stress triggers. Moreover, the research shows that bedroom remote loss affects millions of people regularly. Therefore, mental health experts now recognize this issue as a serious concern.
Additionally, the study data comes from the Department of Psychology at Boston University. Furthermore, researchers found that stress levels increase when people cannot find their remotes quickly. Consequently, adults spend an average of twelve minutes searching for lost bedroom remotes. However, experts note that this ranks below work pressure and financial worries. Finally, the American Psychological Association published the full findings on their website at www.apa.org. The research highlights how everyday frustrations affect national stress levels.
