Why do i cuss so much
The Science of Swearing – Association for Psychological Science – APS
Why would a psychological scientist study swearing? Expertise in such an area has different practical significance inside and outside the community of psychological science. Outside the scientific community, expertise on taboo language is justification for frequent consultation about contemporary issues that are perennial: Is swearing harmful? Should children be allowed to swear? Is our swearing getting worse? One of us has been interviewed over 3,000 times by various media with respect to the questions above, as well as those about the use of taboo words in television, advertising, professional sports, radio, music, and film. In addition to consultation with mass media, expert testimony has been needed in cases involving sexual harassment, fighting words, picket-line speech, disturbing the peace, and contempt of court cases.
Considering the persistent need for an expert to consult for the above issues, it is odd that swearing expertise is weighted so differently when swearing is viewed from the perspective of psychological science. While hundreds of papers have been written about swearing since the early 1900s, they tend to originate from fields outside of psychology such as sociology, linguistics, and anthropology. When swearing is a part of psychological research, it is rarely an end in itself.

It is far more common to see strong offensive words used as emotionally arousing stimuli — tools to study the effect of emotion on mental processes such as attention and memory.
Why the public-versus-science disconnect? Is swearing, as a behavior, outside the scope of what a psychological scientist ought to study? Because swearing is influenced so strongly by variables that can be quantified at the individual level, psychological scientists (more than linguists, anthropologists, and sociologists) have the best training to answer questions about it. Another explanation for the relative lack of emphasis on this topic is the orientation of psychological science to processes (e.g., memory) rather than life domains (e.
g., leisure activities), a problem described by Paul Rozin. Arguably, a more domain-centered approach to psychological study would better accommodate topics such as swearing and other taboo behaviors.
Regardless of the reason for the relative lack of emphasis on swearing research per se inside psychological science, there is still a strong demand from outside the scientific community for explanations of swearing and associated phenomena. To give the reader a sense of the work that we do as psychological scientists who study swearing, let’s consider some of the common questions we’re asked about swearing.
Is swearing problematic or harmful?
Courts presume harm from speech in cases involving discrimination or sexual harassment. The original justification for our obscenity laws was predicated on an unfounded assumption that speech can deprave or corrupt children, but there is little (if any) social-science data demonstrating that a word in and of itself causes harm.
A closely related problem is the manner in which harm has been defined — harm is most commonly framed in terms of standards and sensibilities such as religious values or sexual mores. Rarely are there attempts to quantify harm in terms of objectively measurable symptoms (e.g., sleep disorder, anxiety). Psychological scientists could certainly make a systematic effort to establish behavioral outcomes of swearing.
Swearing can occur with any emotion and yield positive or negative outcomes. Our work so far suggests that most uses of swear words are not problematic. We know this because we have recorded over 10,000 episodes of public swearing by children and adults, and rarely have we witnessed negative consequences. We have never seen public swearing lead to physical violence. Most public uses of taboo words are not in anger; they are innocuous or produce positive consequences (e.g., humor elicitation). No descriptive data are available about swearing in private settings, however, so more work needs to be done in that area.
Therefore, instead of thinking of swearing as uniformly harmful or morally wrong, more meaningful information about swearing can be obtained by asking what communication goals swearing achieves. Swear words can achieve a number of outcomes, as when used positively for joking or storytelling, stress management, fitting in with the crowd, or as a substitute for physical aggression. Recent work by Stephens et al. even shows that swearing is associated with enhanced pain tolerance. This finding suggests swearing has a cathartic effect, which many of us may have personally experienced in frustration or in response to pain. Despite this empirical evidence, the positive consequences of swearing are commonly disregarded in the media. Here is an opportunity for psychological scientists to help inform the media and policymakers by clearly describing the range of outcomes of swearing, including the benefits.
Is it bad for children to hear or say swear words?
The harm question for adult swearing applies to issues such as verbal abuse, sexual harassment, and discrimination.
When children enter the picture, offensive language becomes a problem for parents and a basis for censorship in media and educational settings. Considering the ubiquity of this problem, it is interesting that psychology textbooks do not address the emergence of this behavior in the context of development or language learning.
Parents often wonder if this behavior is normal and how they should respond to it. Our data show that swearing emerges by age two and becomes adult-like by ages 11 or 12. By the time children enter school, they have a working vocabulary of 30-40 offensive words. We have yet to determine what children know about the meanings of the words they use. We do know that younger children are likely to use milder offensive words than older children and adults, whose lexica may include more strongly offensive terms and words with more nuanced social and cultural meanings. We are currently collecting data to better understand the development of the child’s swearing lexicon.
We do not know exactly how children learn swear words, although this learning is an inevitable part of language learning, and it begins early in life. Whether or not children (and adults) swear, we know that they do acquire a contextually-bound swearing etiquette — the appropriate ‘who, what, where, and when’ of swearing. This etiquette determines the difference between amusing and insulting and needs to be studied further. Through interview data, we know that young adults report to have learned these words from parents, peers, and siblings, not from mass media.
Considering that the consequences of children’s exposure to swear words are frequently cited as the basis for censorship, psychological scientists should make an effort to describe the normal course of the development of a child’s swearing lexicon and etiquette. Is it important to attempt to censor children from language they already know? While psychological scientists themselves do not establish language standards, they can provide scientific data about what is normal to inform this debate.
Has swearing become more frequent in recent years?
This is a very common question, and it’s a tough one to answer because we have no comprehensive, reliable baseline frequency data prior to the 1970s for comparison purposes. It is true that we are exposed to more forms of swearing since the inception of satellite radio, cable television, and the Internet, but that does not mean the average person is swearing more frequently. In our recent frequency count, a greater proportion of our data comes from women (the reduction of a once large gender difference). We interpret this finding as reflecting a greater proportion of women in public (e.g., many more women on college campuses) rather than a coarsening of women. Our forthcoming research also indicates that the most frequently recorded taboo words have remained fairly stable over the past 30 years. The Anglo-Saxon words we say are hundreds of years old, and most of the historically offensive sexual references are still at the top of the offensiveness list; they have not been dislodged by modern slang.
Frequency data must be periodically collected to answer questions about trends in swearing over time.
Thus, our data do not indicate that our culture is getting “worse” with respect to swearing. When this question arises, we also frequently fail to acknowledge the impact of recently-enacted laws that penalize offensive language, such as sexual harassment and discrimination laws. Workplace surveillance of telephone and email conversations also curbs our use of taboo language.
Do all people swear?
We can answer this question by saying that all competent English speakers learn how to swear in English. Swearing generally draws from a pool of 10 expressions and occurs at a rate of about 0.5 percent of one’s daily word output. However, it is not informative to think of how an average person swears: Contextual, personality, and even physiological variables are critical for predicting how swearing will occur. While swearing crosses socioeconomic statuses and age ranges and persists across the lifespan, it is more common among adolescents and more frequent among men.
Inappropriate swearing can be observed in frontal lobe damage, Tourette’s disorder, and aphasia.
Swearing is positively correlated with extraversion and is a defining feature of a Type A personality. It is negatively correlated with conscientiousness, agreeableness, sexual anxiety, and religiosity. These relationships are complicated by the range of meanings within the diverse group of taboo words. Some religious people might eschew profanities (religious terms), but they may have fewer reservations about offensive sexual terms that the sexually anxious would avoid. We have yet to systematically study swearing with respect to variables such as impulsivity or psychiatric conditions, (e.g., schizophrenia and bipolar disorder). These may be fruitful avenues along which to investigate the neural basis of emotion and self-control.
Taboo words occupy a unique place in language because once learned, their use is heavily context driven. While we have descriptive data about frequency and self reports about offensiveness and other linguistic variables, these data tend to come from samples that overrepresent young, White, middle-class Americans.
A much wider and more diverse sample is needed to better characterize the use of taboo language to more accurately answer all of the questions here.
Swearing Like A Sailor May Not Be Such A Bad Thing
This article was originally published on Jan. 14, 2020.
Well, damn. Maybe you stubbed your toe first thing in the morning. Or some thoughtless commuter forced you to slam the brakes on the drive to work. Perhaps you’re just fed up with it all and feel like sinking to your knees and cursing the heavens.
If you’ve ever suppressed the urge to unleash a string of obscenities, maybe think again. Some research suggests that it might be a better idea to simply let the filth fly.
Scientifically speaking, a penchant for profanity doesn’t seem to be such a bad thing. Studies have shown that swearing relieves stress, dulls the sensation of pain, fosters camaraderie among peers and is linked with traits like verbal fluency, openness and honesty.
And the effects of cursing are physical as well as mental.
you,’ than it is to hit somebody,” adds Jay, a world-renowned expert in cursing. “We’ve evolved this very efficient way to vent our emotions and convey them to others.”
Pain Relief
As anyone who’s ever struck their thumb with a hammer can attest, swearing is a pretty common response to pain. But for years, some pain specialists thought that cursing doesn’t really help much in those situations. They theorized that swearing might actually have a “catastrophizing” effect, meaning that it prompts people to exaggerate or overstate the severity of pain.
In 2009, researchers from Keele University’s School of Psychology in the U.K. set out to study whether swearing alters someone’s experience of pain. Based on previous assumptions that swearing was a “maladaptive” response to pain, the scientists guessed that swearing would make pain feel worse.
But, surprisingly, the scientists found that swearing actually increases an individual’s pain tolerance. The team tasked 67 undergraduate volunteers with plunging their hands in ice-cold water for as long as they could handle it while repeating a swear word of their choice.
Then, they did the experiment again — but this time, the students said a neutral, non-taboo word. The research team found that volunteers were able to keep their hands submerged in the frigid water for longer while repeating the swear word.
In addition, because swearing was accompanied by an increase in heart rate, the scientists think that cursing may trigger an individual’s “fight-or-flight” response. They suggest that swearing triggers negative emotions that serve as an alarm bell, alerting someone to danger and sparking an innate defense mechanism.
Damn Honest
Beyond swearing's impacts on the body and mind, research has shown that cursing can influence our social dynamics, too. A 2012 study found that swearing can enhance the effectiveness and persuasiveness of an argument. In addition, cursing can also convey an emotional reaction to something without us resorting to physical violence.
And while many might consider swearing less than savory, a recent study revealed that people who curse often actually lie less and have a higher degree of integrity.
After the scientists surveyed how often participants use profanity, they conducted a series of tests to determine how truthful an individual was. The research team found a positive link between profanity and honesty. Cursing was associated with less deception on an interpersonal level, and higher levels of integrity overall.
Fluent in Foulness
For many, the use of obscene language isn’t just a sign of boorish behavior — a common assumption is that people swear because they lack the vocabulary, education or even intelligence to express themselves in other ways. In other words, when language fails, we curse.
“It’s a form of linguistic snobbery,” says Jay, referring to the presumed link between swearing and intelligence. “It’s a cultural stereotype. But the more I became sophisticated in language studies, the more I realized that every language scholar knows that’s not true.”
To deconstruct this myth, in 2015, Jay and a research team explored another possibility — that “fluency is fluency,” regardless of linguistic content.
The psychologists found that an individual’s fluency in the English language was linked to fluency in swearing. In other words, swearing may actually be a sign of greater intellect, not less, and a more robust vocabulary.
In the study, the researchers asked volunteers to think of as many words beginning with a certain letter of the alphabet as possible in one minute. Afterwards, they tasked the volunteers to rattle off as many swear words as they could within the same time frame. By comparing the scores in both fluency experiments, the scientists found that those who scored higher in verbal fluency were also better equipped to spout off obscenities.
“People who are good at producing language are good at producing swear words,” adds Jay. “It’s not because they don’t have language — it’s because they have a whole toolbox full of words.”

Why is swearing so good?
Just because we realize we're doing something "bad" or does swearing really affect our brain and body?
It's happened to everyone: when we hit our feet on a table leg, get stuck in a traffic jam, or spill coffee, we shout out obscene words, and sometimes we spout three-story swearing.
- A city in England changed its mind about banning swearing
- Five parrots in a zoo in England provoked each other to swear. They had to be seated
- "Chiki" and others: why Russian online cinemas shoot their own series easy satisfaction.
Yes, some people swear more than others, and sometimes people use forbidden words to celebrate.
But it must be admitted that swearing exists in all languages and cultures of the world... and perhaps even in animals (more on that later).

The End of the Story Podcast
"It's really, really hard to define a swear word," says expert Emma Byrne, author of Swearing Is Good.
Swearing is a language that we resort to when we are shocked, surprised, for joy, as a joke, or to offend someone... but as a cultural phenomenon, swearing works only within its "native" community, linguistic group, society , country or region, she says.
"We decide which words are swear words based on consensus. And this consensus is largely based on what taboos exist in each particular culture: somewhere they are very offended when they hear the name of a body part, somewhere - the name of a disease, and in other places it is considered obscene to mention bodily functions," Byrne explains.
But swearing everywhere has one thing in common: "In order for words to have emotional weight, you need to play with a topic that is taboo in a particular society.
" When in doubt, here's another criterion from Emma Byrne: "It's the kind of language you wouldn't use in certain circumstances, like a job interview or meeting your partner's parents for the first time."

"In a stressful situation or when something unexpected happens, cursing is like a reflex. It's nice in its own way!" says a BBC radio listener named Gadi.
Other listeners agree.
"The situation in which I swear can be joyful, I can swear from surprise, from deep regret or anger. This is probably the most expressive way to show emotions," says listener Mikhail.
Surely there are people who never swear at all, but many of us will understand what a sense of relief the listeners are talking about. We experience it when we swear from the heart, some words seem to be charged with some kind of energy.
According to Emma Byrne, author of the book Cursing Is Good, one of her most interesting findings is that even people who have had a hemispherectomy, that is, who have lost half of their brain, do not completely lose the ability to speak.
"When a person has the left side of the brain removed, or it is damaged, for example, due to a stroke, and this person loses most of his speech abilities, then as a rule they do not lose the ability to swear," says the doctor.
"We seem to form very strong emotional bonds with certain words, and these are stored in our brain separately from other words. You can remove part of the brain and the ability to use language in a thoughtful and planned way, as I do now. But the person will retain the ability to swear ".

"I was wondering if it makes sense to swear when a person is in pain - does it help," says the psychologist Richard Stevens, head of the Math Lab at Keele University.
Experiments in the laboratory. One of them, for example, is to put your hand in a bucket full of ice - once with a curse, the second - using censored analogues of swear words, and see how much a person can stand.
The lab found that using a real mat worked better: Cursing people kept their hand in the bucket longer. Randomly chosen words don't work at all - they don't have that much emotional weight.
But how is this to be explained?
"When a person swears, their heart rate tends to go up. This seems to indicate that swearing elicits an emotional response, and we know that swearing is the language of emotion," Stevens says.
"Our working hypothesis is that when people swear in pain, they artificially increase their stress levels, and a phenomenon called stress analgesia comes into play, that is, sensitivity to pain decreases, this is part of a wider psychological mechanism" beat or run," Stevens says.
“I don’t usually swear,” says Colin, another listener. “But a few years ago I had an injury in the mountains and had to be rescued.

Our listeners are here to help.
"Swearing in Spanish is very creative," Clara says. "If someone is really angry, they will swear in full sentences and tell whole stories, all in swear words."
Jane from Malta says: "The most offensive swear word can be translated as 'sperm'. And it's quite strange, because in other cultures, if you call someone sperm, they just look at you askance."
"Russian is the best language for swearing," says Mikhail. There are so many offensive words, and any word can be made offensive! Our culture of swearing is rooted in literature, and it's impossible to imagine a Russian who doesn't swear.
" "There's an interesting swear word in Mandarin Chinese that means 'to do something that will affect someone's 18th generation ancestors,'" says Jacqueline. - You can say: "I do this with your mother, grandmother, with all the ancestors up to the 18th knee." I sometimes say that to my father."
There is another Chinese expression that refers to turtle eggs and the belief that female turtles constantly "go to the left"... so to call someone a turtle egg is to doubt that someone then his or her father.
So, although mating is different all over the world, it seems to be a universal aspect of human culture.

But not only humans can swear. Emma Byrne talks about amazing experiments with chimpanzees, during which monkeys were essentially raised in the format of an extended family.
In this experiment, American primate experts Deborah and Roger Footes "communicated only in the language of the deaf and dumb in the presence of chimpanzees, and taught the monkeys a wide variety of words," says the expert.
Under natural conditions, chimpanzees communicate mainly by exchanging feces, but the Footes made this taboo by toilet training the monkeys.
"After that, the monkeys started using the sign for 'dirt or feces' in much the same way that English-speakers use the corresponding word," she says.
"They used this sign to express irritation, to insult and to call the opponent a 'dirty monkey', this was the most serious insult for them."
On top of all that, the monkeys started making jokes about feces, says Byrne.
"Roger and Deborah Footes write that chimpanzees slapped their chin with the back of their hand (meaning 'dirty'") so hard that their teeth chattered.
"This seemed to me the most interesting part of my research: I realized that as soon as there is a taboo and a way to talk about it, there is a checkmate," she says.
0011 The influence of swearing on health, consciousness, human life
Life is now such that swearing is heard almost everywhere, even in places with which it is incompatible - in educational institutions, in the family circle, in public places. And after another collision with this alien destructive energy, a desire arose to systematize the thoughts that arise on this occasion. Let's start with the definition of swearing given in Wikipedia: "Swearing (swearing, swearing, swearing, matyuki, (obsolete) barking swearing) is the most rude, obscene kind of profanity in Russian and in languages \u200b\u200bclose to it."
In ancient Russian manuscripts, mating is regarded as a feature of demonic behavior. By uttering obscene words, a person, even if he does it involuntarily, invokes dark forces and participates in a savage cult. Swearing performed among the Slavs in the function of a curse. For example, one of the swear words with the letter "e", which is of Slavic origin, is translated as "curse".
The person who pronounces it thereby curses himself and those around him. A person who utters swear words automatically calls all the dirtiest and sickest things on himself, his children and his entire family. At the same time, the swearer often expresses surprise and regret about serious problems with the organs, primarily the genitourinary system, cancer and other diseases, while continuing to use foul language. Here it is appropriate to recall a well-known fairy tale related to European folklore. The girl, who spoke kindly and cordially, had roses falling from her lips. And the girl, who spoke dirty and rudely, had toads jumping out of her mouth and snakes crawling out ... What an accurate artistic image.
What is a "swear" word, what is "mat"? There is an opinion that the origin of this or that curse, its etymological component is not of great importance. These words are traditionally considered "the worst". And when a person decides to use them for some reason, it is obvious that either extreme malice, or fierce contempt for someone, or complete lack of self-control makes him do so.
The mystical component of foul language is the mysticism of malice boiling in the human heart, malice that connects a person with the destructive forces of the Universe, makes him a slave, while love connects with the Creator. Doctor of Biological Sciences, Academician of Medical and Technical Sciences P. Garyaev experimentally established that protein chromosomes contain all the information necessary for the formation of a living organism. In the course of numerous experiments, he proved that the genetic apparatus of any living being reacts in the same way to external influences, causing changes in the genes. How does this happen? It is known that a person consists of more than 75% of water. Words spoken by a person change the structure of water, building its molecules into complex chains, changing their properties, and, consequently, changing the genetic code of heredity. With the regular negative impact of words, genes are modified, which affect not only the person himself, but also his offspring.
Modification of genes accelerates the aging of the body, contributes to the development of various diseases and thus reduces the life span. And vice versa, under the influence of positive words and thoughts, the human genetic code improves, the aging of the body is delayed and life span is increased. Another scientist, Doctor of Biological Sciences I.I. Belyavsky for many years dealt with the problem of the relationship between the word and human consciousness. With mathematical precision, he proved that not only a person is characterized by a certain spectrum of energy, but each of his words carries an energy charge. And the word affects the genes, either prolonging youth and health, or bringing diseases and early old age closer, significantly worsening the overall quality of life.
Thus, it has been proved once again that a huge destructive force is hidden in foul language. And if a person could see what a powerful negative charge, like a shock wave of an exploding bomb, spreads in all directions from a swearing speech, he would never utter it.
Another interesting observation is connected with swear words. In those countries whose national languages do not contain swear words indicating the reproductive organs, Down's disease and cerebral palsy have not been found, while in Russia, for example, these diseases are not uncommon. If a person, when ejecting negative energy, remembers the genitals, then this has a negative effect on them. This phenomenon is studied by psychosomatics (other Greek soul and body) - a direction in medicine and psychology that studies the influence of psychological factors on the occurrence and course of somatic (bodily) diseases. Therefore, swearers become impotent early or acquire urological diseases. The difficulty is also in the fact that it is not necessary to scold yourself, it is enough to accidentally hear swearing, because of which people who live surrounded by foul language suffer from diseases. Of course, it is possible and necessary to develop the ability to withstand negative impacts from outside.
But even if such an ability is formed, how much effort is spent on constantly neutralizing the "linguistic bombardment" ... Swearing is used to express outright evil, manifested as anger and defilement. They fulfill their purpose, destroying the mind, the health of both those who produce swearing and those who heard it, even just bystanders. Historical reference. Among the ancient Slavs, mate was equated with a curse. Its similar use is recorded in Slavic writing. In the Bulgarian chronicle, the word "mutilated" did not mean "cursed", but simply "cursed". In Rus', until the middle of the 19th century, not only was swearing not widespread even in villages, but for a long time it was a criminal offense. For obscene language in a public place, even according to the Criminal Code of the USSR, 15 days of arrest were supposed. In modern Russia, foul language in public places entails administrative liability - a fine or administrative arrest for up to 15 days, this is provided for by Article 20.
1 of the Administrative Code "Petty Hooliganism". However, bans do not solve serious internal problems. Most people recognize that non-literary expressions humiliate a person, but the same majority nevertheless uses these expressions. It is hard to imagine a hostess pouring a bucket of slop in the middle of the room, but foul language is the same slop. Children are punished for bad words, but no one punishes adults, and the child, hearing a bad word, smirks in order to repeat it later. Thus the circle closes.
When you meet a person who uses a mat, you involuntarily think: is everything in order with his head? Because only a sick, sexually preoccupied person can mention the genitals and sexual intercourse so often in colloquial speech.
You can often hear that there is nothing wrong with swearing, a person simply sheds negative energy, and language cannot do without swearing. However, there is another opinion. Language not only reflects the system of values of a person and society (obscene vocabulary, for example, indicates an obvious vulgarization of such values), but also powerfully influences this system, subordinates it to itself, determines the very worldview of a person, his behavior.
As a result, the character of the people as a whole, the public consciousness, and the course of historical events are changing. Swearing is based primarily (though not exclusively) on the vile and insulting use of the word "mother". One of the highest concepts for a person is reduced to the level of cynically vulgar. Here it is appropriate to quote the words of A.P. Chekhov: "How much wit, anger and spiritual impurity was spent to come up with these nasty words and phrases aimed at insulting and defiling a person in everything that is sacred, dear and dear to him."
Inferiority is always aggressive, and this aggressiveness manifests itself primarily at the level of language. Checkmate is a "format" of losers, weak, unbalanced people who are not able to find their place in life. Mat clogs the language, destroys its beauty and harmony, leads to the degradation of the personality.
Cursing makes communication difficult. A swearing person is not able to convey his thought to the interlocutor in full and fills with foul language the voids caused by his own stupidity.
Mat - a demonstration of disrespect not only to the interlocutor, but also to the world as a whole, it undermines trust between people, exposes the one who swears in the most unfavorable light. Yes, there are social strata where the one who does not swear appears to be an inferior member of the corresponding group. But now we are talking about swearing not from the standpoint of marginal circles, but from the standpoint of normal people. In medical practice, there are cases when people with certain types of paralysis cannot say a single normal word, but without hesitation utter whole expressions consisting exclusively of obscenities. This amazing phenomenon indicates that swearing is formed along completely different nerve chains, not like ordinary human speech, which is suggestive ... Scientists, studying the phenomenon of swearing, came to the conclusion that the general health of a person suffers from its use and decreases overall quality of life. They empirically proved that a spoken or heard swear word carries an energy charge that negatively affects a person.
For several years, researchers have been monitoring two groups of people. One included those who had only obscenities in their speech, and the second group of the observed did not use rude words at all. The results speak for themselves: in people who used the mat, chronic diseases worsened; the members of the other group had a significantly better body condition, and their biological age turned out to be several years younger than their passport age. Matt affects primarily male potency and women's health. A man, using obscene language, provokes the formation of infertility. It is male infertility that currently causes particular concern among specialists. The male factor accounts for approximately 40% of the causes of infertile marriages; in recent decades, a progressive decrease in the number of spermatozoa in the ejaculate, inexplicable from generally accepted medical positions, has been observed. Approximately 6-8% of men are infertile. About 40% are female infertility and 20% are mixed.
