孤獨星人必備:兩招教你輕鬆親近陌生人
Scientists have revealed that flashing a stranger a coy smile or even just making eye contact can have a huge impact on their feelings, the Daily Mail reported.
據英國《每日郵報》報道，科學家發現，對陌生人施以微笑，或僅僅來個眼神交流，都會給對方帶來巨大的感情衝擊。
Researchers have conducted tests on hundreds of students to find out how tiny gestures can affect people -- and found how even the smallest amount of eye contact made them feel connected to others。
研究人員對數百名學生進行測驗後發現，細微的手勢，甚至是微妙的眼神交流，都會使對方感覺有親近感。
"Ostracism is painful," said chief researcher Eric Wesselmann, a social psychologist at Purdue University。
美國普渡大學社會心理學家、該研究帶頭人埃裏克·韋塞爾曼說：“被孤立是很痛苦的。”
The team hopes the results can help explain why people often feel lonely in large cities where people rarely make eye contact。
大城市的市民很少進行眼神交流，該團隊希望他們的研究成果有助於解釋人們孤獨的原因。
