Actually that is a lie. Yawns are contagious.
Yawns are thought to be contagious due to a primitive form of empathy called social contagion. When we see or hear someone else yawn, our brain simulates the action and triggers us to yawn as well, possibly as a way to increase group alertness and synchrony.
Yawns can be classified into several types, including physiological yawns, which help increase oxygen intake and regulate brain temperature; contagious yawns, triggered by seeing or hearing someone else yawn; and social yawns, which may occur in response to social cues or empathy. Additionally, there are reflexive yawns that can occur due to boredom or fatigue. Each type serves different functions, ranging from biological needs to social bonding.
I don't know about "drowsy" but I have heard that if someone near you yawns, you yawn too. Like yawns are contagious. Yawns don't mean that you're tired. It also means that you're not getting enough oxygen, but that has not been scientifically tested.
Yes, animal yawns can be contagious. Research has shown that many social animals, including dogs, primates, and some birds, can trigger yawning in others through social cues. This phenomenon is often linked to empathy and social bonding, as it tends to occur more frequently among animals that have strong social connections. However, the extent and mechanisms of contagious yawning can vary across different species.

No. There's no contagious element to yawns, but they do seem to be empathetically suggestive. Many people (chimpanzees and rhesus monkeys also) yawn when they see others yawn.

An example of contagious behavior is yawning. When one person yawns, it often triggers others around them to yawn as well, even if they weren't feeling tired before. This is thought to be a natural response related to empathy and social bonding.
Yawns are believed to be contagious due to a phenomenon called social mirroring, where one person's actions trigger a similar response in another person. When we see or hear someone else yawn, it can activate neural pathways in our brain that prompt us to yawn as well, even if we're not feeling tired. This is thought to be an unconscious form of empathy or social bonding.
They are not contagious
I believe this is true. I believe smiling is contagious.
