I was just thinking about this. (Sorry I'm a huge nerd tbh) What makes specific triggers satisfy someone? Well, ASMR stands for "Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response" which is a brain message that gives you a relaxing feeling. Professor Craig Richard concluded this from his observation that certain colors to the very hand movement of videos like ASMR send a ticklish sensation to people. So why is it different for other people? Why does ASMR work for some and not others? It is actually shown by Dr. Joanna Greer that higher levels of anxiety are more likely to experience tingles. Also, those who do experience ASMR are more likely to score higher on a neuroticism test. Neuroticism is a trait that reflects a person's emotional stability. (Stress, managing urges, strong reaction to threats, etc.)
