Twitter is spreading “Is it a man or a dog in the snow”? The answer reveals the state of mind

“Seeing is not believing”! At the beginning of the brand new year 2021, an interesting “illusion” photo was circulated on social media Twitter, causing many tens of thousands of users to retweet it. Now ask you, this snowy scenery photo, you see a human or a dog? The answer can actually reveal the psychological state.

After careful examination, the picture is actually a black poodle, walking towards the direction of the camera. However, some people immediately saw that it was a poodle, while others saw a man carrying a bag, running into the forest in the opposite direction of the action. Only a very small number of people saw it as a black bear.

According to the Sun, psychologist Lee Chambers (Lee Chambers) that this picture can reflect the true character of people. If you are currently very anxious, you may see the man running away, which means “you are prone to pessimism and not easy to trust others”; but if you are an optimistic person, you will see a dog in a snowy environment.

“Visual misalignment” means that what the eye sees is not understood by the brain in a way that matches reality. Most people can see a dog, and some people see people first, then dogs. There are also people who are angry and insist that “it’s a man, where the hell is the dog”? Another woman said “it’s ridiculous”, she has spent too long staring at the trees, how can not find someone. What exactly did everyone see? This has led to a discussion among netizens.

The “dog’s tail” looks like the back of a person’s head, so some people mistook it for a “person” at first glance, while others accidentally found that the frozen tree branch looked like a dog. (Tweets by Devin A. Wiley)
