Internal Dialogue Study
Recently on various internet forums a discussion has popped up - do you or do you not have an internal dialogue? Some people are able to think in words - they can sort of "talk to themselves" in their own head, and use this to plan for the future and reflect on the past. Some people, however, it seems do not have this ability, and instead "live in the moment". Similarly, some people can visualize images in their head while others cannot.
We believe the people without an internal dialogue actually do have one, it is simply paralyzed - likely by a higher stress burden than their peers that do have an internal dialogue. We believe this extra stress comes from an unbalanced gut microbiome, and that if this balance is corrected, their internal dialogue will become unparalyzed and they will be able to relax and "talk to themselves" like their less-stressed peers do.
For this study, participants will be given fresh, strong probiotics every week for six weeks total, and we will do daily check-ins via text message to monitor stress levels and check for the emergence of an internal dialogue. Participants will be paid $25 per week for the duration of the study.
