Study Finds Smiling Is Infectious And Typically Passes On To Three People!

A new study has found that a smile is as infectious as laughter, and usually passes on to three more people.

The research polling 2,000 people found that three-quarters of respondents said a smile from someone brightens their day, and 28% enjoy it so much, they said it was better than getting a gift.

The study also found that 62% said a simple smile from someone left them feeling more confident, and 36% said it made them want to do something nice for someone else.

The research, conducted via OnePoll, also found that 75% feel their mood is affected by the shorter and colder days of the autumn and winter months, and 61% need a boost of positivity.

A third feel people smile less during the colder months, but 33% agreed a grin goes much further when it is dreary outside.
