Ever had a joke fall flat?Anti-insulin receptor antibody, AIRA, Human, ELISA Kit It may be the sound of your voice, according to a new study.Rat Glypican-3 (GPC-3) ELISA Kit Researchers recorded men and women telling corny one-liners (ex., “I was thinking about life the other day, and a frightening idea occurred to me: What if the Hokey Pokey really is what it's all about?”)—and then manipulated the pitches of their voices. Rat Nuclear factor-kappa B,NF-κB ELISA Kit Artificially lowered voices made the speakers sound more dominant; higher pitched voices made them sound less so.
