Layman's explanation of cell phone phantom vibration
You must have experienced occasions when you excitedly dug into your pocket to attend to your most demanding mobile call only to find that it was never even ringing in the first place. So irritating!
These phantom calls have come to haunt mobile users in a big way. Since there are no scientific studies as yet let us try to be content with a layman's hypothesis.
Erin Hall, a 29-year-old from Boise, Idaho, associates these haunting calls with the anticipation of a call from a new crush or make-up call after a problem with a lover.
Jack Davis, a 37-year-old musician from Hawaii blames it on the subconscious inability to distinguish between different types of noise it hounded with everyday.
Martin Conaghan, a cell phone user in Glasgow, Scotland, believes it is psychosomatic ie your brain's adaptation to a foreign object.
