Because yawning is a response to shortage of oxygen, the sight of someone else yawning might trigger, by way of association, an automatic shift of attention to the present state of oxygen (surely too brief to be consciously available in most circumstances).
A system that is exogenous to the breathing module might have no idea about the level of oxygen that requires correction by inhaling or exhaling. Thus, attention to the state of oxygen may lead the perceiver himself to yawn, which might hamper the balance between oxygen and CO2.
Just a thought anyway. |
it does not work with kids though - i could see a room full of children yawning and it would have no effect on me - i witness one adult yawn and i'm history

Clearly, you are still harboring unresolved issues from your childhood. Thus causing your subconscious to ignore the actions of people that fit the general description of yourself during that time period. I believe that if you can resurface those lost feelings, you will be able to elucidate the true origin of the crisis. Only then will both children and adults cause a psychosomatic reaction that causes you to yawn.
