[@alericjohansen6775]

Then it's not really"common" now is it? I don't think there is such a thing as common sense. Cause what we would consider common now is totally different than 100 years ago. Liberalism is better than conservatism SHOULD be common sense. Same with vaccines don't cause autism, or that statues allow bad thoughts to greater in people's minds, hence why dictators put statues of themselves everywhere. Or with that atoms exist, or the Earth is a sphere. Many things that SHOULD be considered common sense just aren't. At one time it was common sense that the Earth was flat, or that slavery was moral and even the Bible and God backed it, or that blood had "magical" powers to heal or to keep storms away, sacrifice was common because of this magic. The list goes on and on. So yeah, common sense is not a real thing, it at the least is more subjective than people like to think

[@nedisahonkey]

Naim Noor I wouldn't automatically trust psychology today, they're a mass market magazine with a lot of bullshit pop psychology. Even when they use good science or research they have to simplify it to such a degree that it often dilutes and obfuscates the true conclusions from a study. Besides I've read reasearch papers that used one way mirrors to study this "sense" and they found no statistically significant effect. I'm not saying that the "sense" you mention doesn't exist, but there is hardly a scientific consensus that it does exist.

[@Rhythmmical]

Quite a few of these senses are connected to the general 5 senses. It's good to teach them, but we should teach how these primary 5 diverge into subsenses. Sensing heat is part of feeling, or touch.

According to some classifications we have 30+ senses.

[@OnideusMadHatter]

There's a lot of things, intelligence wise, which could be classified as "senses" depending on how you look at them... emotional intelligence, spatial recognition/awareness, coordination (various forms, including eye to hand), pattern recognition, memory retention (long term and short term), memory retrieval (speed and accuracy), reaction speed, social adaptation, reasoning/problem solving, concept formation, language processing, association, habit reversal, volition/will/want, attention span, sequencing, language/vocabulary, computational ability, comparative analysis, innovation, imagination/creativity, comprehension, sense of self/personal awareness, compassion, etc, etc, etc.

My son has Sensory Integration Disorder and I plan to show him this video. It's another great tool to explain SID to him. Most people take their normally functioning proprioceptive senses for granted. Not everyone can automatically sense where their own body parts and placement are without needing to look. I.E. Walking requires many things to be coordinated at once. And we are constantly making slight adjustments based on the proprioceptive senses messages to the brain.

[@nibskie1304]

[@mksabourinable]

Another interesting one is your awareness of things around you. Not things you're touching, seeing, hearing, etc. Just... sensing. Like how most people can feel someone staring at them. We even have the ability to feel things that are near us, however most people it's quite weak. You can feel it by closing your eyes and having a friend stick a finger or a pen between your eyes, but not touching the skin or hairs. You'll get this weird tight and tingly sensation there. (Some people can do it to themselves, but it's more effective if someone else does it.)

Then we were told to put it on another part of our tongue and asked if we could taste it. Me and a few other kids said yes because we could while everyone else said no. The teacher thought we were lying because the tongue map CLEARLY said it was impossible. When I found out it was wrong I felt so proud of myself.

thank you for making this video and giving the complexity of detail it deserves. i feel like a lot of videos (not just yours, explaining videos in general) like to point out the complexity of the topic at hand without giving credit for why the world simplifies it. for example, you could have said: "there are more than five senses, and we've been teaching children something incorrect all this time". but you included reasoning for why children are taught the simple albiet the incorrect, thus explaining the complexity of the situation at hand. so thank you for not dumbing the facts down!

[@adeshkantha7034]

I dont think time is a sense like the others, but yeah you're right

[@kulvinderbisla3314]

What I learned in school was that senses is how we get information about the EXTERNAL world. The extra senses this video talks about give info about our own body, not the external world. And if we classify temperature into skin sensory organ, I can't think of another way we get info about the external envt.

[@rini6]

Sad that some people don't believe these basic scientific facts. It makes them feel smarter to use false skepticism, I guess. Read a medical text or ask a neurologist. Evaluating these senses is part of a detailed neurological exam.

[@myguitartwerks7825]

Irene Haralabatos If you look at the things listed from the video, they all branch out to the original 5 senses. So its still 5 senses. You cant just branch off and claim them as different senses. Yes, there are different "sensors", but they are part of at least one of the 5 senses. These are the real scientific facts.

[@rini6]

Propriocrption is its own sense. We learned this in medical school. There is also a vestibular sense that causes vertigo when it malfunctions. ENT physicians see this all the time.

[@happyswedme]

To me it comes down as a definition of sens. I was taught a sens was used to identify a object, you cant use bodily awareness or balance to identify a apple, you need a sens for that. however we also have a array of detectivities witch help us know the position of our selves and objects in our surrounding such as depth perception and sound location so if one counts detectivities as senses then yes, we do have more than 5 but if you narrow it down to the body's abilities to identify foreign objects then i cant think of more than 5. Do you?

[@crimfan]

*We learned this in medical school.* Exactly. Unfortunately a lot of what people learned in kindergarten seems to override more nuanced and accurate understanding. Dramatically simplifying is necessary for education but the way we do it ends up causing a lot of problems later on.

[@Slashtap]

I find it amusing that the textbook approach to teaching senses refutes the limited 5-sense framework, because now I think the textbook approach has taken its place as the framework guilty of being limited. We never categorize emotion, passage of time, and other non-physiological senses as senses because for some reason physiology has the monopoly on teaching senses.

Most of the time we're not really aware of senses like proprioception but it's possible for us to become very aware of them. I had a really nasty injury of the "learn to walk again" variety and one of the things that I had to do during the course of PT was to redevelop my lower limb proprioception, which is highly dependent on input from the limbs. It's very difficult and takes a long time to do.When toddlers fall down they're developing their sense of proprioception!

[@dogspookedbytheair3061]

I think what aristotle was trying to do was compress all our senses into 5. As in our sense of balance is attributed to our sense of touch and sight, even smell is a case where a gust of wind is calculated by a certain smell inhabited.

Yeah, but if you define senses as requiring external stimulus, then the classical 5 senses are still the only ones that we have. There are of course subcategories within those senses (like pain and temperature perception) but they still use the same sensory organs. All the other senses listed here like balance and spatial positioning are completely internal experiences

[@marleymarl899]

When you really think about it, is it possible there's only one sense, the sense of touch? Everything we come in contact with must touch the nerves and receptors in our bodies in order for us to perceive what it is we are experiencing. For example, a scent must touch the nerves in our nose in order for us discern what we are smelling, no? Another example would be when something touches the tongue. Only then we're able to determine the taste of something.

All of these can be learned in an Anatomy and Physiology course. Kudos to making it interesting in a video format. It'd be kinda dull if presented in a classroom style meant for test taking not entertainment. Also, "modern" science now lists 5 Special Senses on top of your General Senses. Your 5 Special Senses are the receptors that are located in your head; vision, smell, gustatory, audio & equilibrium. Your General Senses are everywhere in your body that you guys just mentioned such as proprioception, baroreceptor, chemoreceptor, thermoreceptor, etc.

[@FastestGunNJ]

I'd argue that the additional senses presented in the video are extensions of other senses, or combinations of the common five senses.

[@robertkopp873]

There is a difference between "senses" and "sensors"...

[@mikeynjs94]

Robert Kopp You're right. A sense is a faculty by which the body perceives an external stimulus; first us ed in 14th century - from the Latin sensus (12th century) which is from the Latin sentire which is from the Proto-Indo European root sent-. A sensor is an electronic device used to detect or measure a physical property; first used is in 1950 on the pattern of motor from the English sensory, but which has also come to mean sense organ.

I think when batters in baseball do that little bat wobble at the plate they're engaging their proprioception. When batters do a little of this they seem to hit the ball more often then then when they do a lot of it. I think when they do a little of this, they're tuning up their sense of exactly where the bat is, but when they do a lot of the wobble, they're just nervous and doing what they think they usually do. Sometimes routine helps, but understanding would lead to greater success. Teaching only five senses leads to not thinking about the others until we begin having serious issues with them. Like the sense of balance, if we trained this sense we'd be better off when we get old and begin to have noticeable balance problems. Are former professional dancers less likely to lose their balance as they get older? If I'm right about the batter's wobble, then wouldn't it help to utilize the wobble or something like it in other ways?
