快樂的人說話更吸引別人

        Here’s what the researchers found:

　　 研究人員發(fā)現：

　　The happiest participants spent 25 percent less time alone and 70 percent more time talking than the unhappiest participants. The happiest participants also had twice as many substantive conversations and one-third as much small talk as the unhappiest participants.

　　 最快樂的參與者比最不快樂的獨處時間少25%，與他人說話的時間多70%。同時，前者有實質內容的交談是后者的兩倍，閑聊數量是后者的 1/3。

　　 The findings suggest that happy lives are social and conversationally deep, rather than solitary and superficial. The researchers think that deep conversations may have the potential to make people happier, though the findings from this study don’t identify cause-andeffect between the two.

　　結論顯示，快樂的生活具有社會層面的意義并與日常交談有關，而并不僅僅是個體差異和表面現象。雖然這項研究的結論并沒有發(fā)現談話種類與快樂度之間的因果聯系，但研究人員認為，有深度的交談也許更可能讓人快樂。
