| Researchers have discovered that a substantial minority of Britons suffer from trypophobia, the largely unstudied fear of clusters of tiny holes. |
|
| For many people trypophobia affects their everyday lives and can be quite debilitating. |
|
| We therefore suggest that trypophobia arises because the inducing stimuli share a core spectral feature with such organisms. |
|
| In the study, researchers carried out a number of experiments with different images to estimate the prevalence of trypophobia. |
|
| I barely noticed Tobias's schizophrenia anymore, let alone Ivy's trypophobia. But the madness was there, lurking. |
|
| Images of lotus seed heads are often reported as inducing trypophobia. Sufferers of trypophobia report that it is the visual percept that is particularly aversive. |
