They don't.

But people believe they do - even educated people.

they eIn a study, the people in hospital causalty/A&E units were asked about what they expect at a full moon. They all indicated that they expected more people to report, and to report with strangely acquired conditions.

The data was analysed and no patterns of unusual behaviour were occurred.

The same type of study was done with police officers - they too all aid that the full moon gets them busier - but the facts and figures don't back them up.

What is the reason in connection to the lunar cycle of some people act strangely during full moon?

There is no medical evidence to suggest that the moon has an effect on people's behaviour. What is believed to be the case is that people hear about this effect and so psychologically change. There was an experiment carried out using electric shocks on members of the public which may help explain. The experiment features a person being electronically shocked and asked to rate the pain on a 1-10 scale. The person is then told the next shock will be higher and expected to be more painful, but when they are actually shocked it is of the exact same intensity as the first shock. Even though there is no 'real' increase in pain, the person rated the pain of the second shock higher than the first. In a similar way to this, if someone believes they will/ should act strangely during a full moon then they will simply because they believe it. Another possible reason is a condition called seasonal affective disorder (otherwise simply known as SAD), which is a mental disorder linked to the changing seasons and their levels of natural light.
