According to the research, swearing may serve as an effective, free, and side-effect-free method to enhance productivity. This discovery could be significant for training and other scenarios where psychological motivation is crucial.
In the future, scientists plan to investigate the neurological mechanisms behind swearing’s impact and explore its potential applications in sports and everyday life.
