研究發(fā)現(xiàn)：拍照能增強(qiáng)人們對(duì)生活的記憶
Turns Out That Taking Photos Really Does Help You Remember All Those Great Experiences
研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，拍照片真的能幫你把那些美好的回憶記得更牢
Is our non-stop photo-taking pulling us out of the moments that matter and causing us to forget what we've seen? Maybe not, according to new research looking at the relationship between snapping pictures and forming memories.
我們那從不停止的拍照惡習(xí)真的在讓我們無(wú)法享受當(dāng)下、并讓我們忘了自己看到了什么嗎？根據(jù)一項(xiàng)最新的關(guān)于拍照和記憶形成的研究，事實(shí)可能并不是這樣。
During the study, 294 volunteers were asked to tour a museum exhibit listening to an audio guide – those in one group were encouraged to take photos, while those in another had to leave their phones and cameras behind.
在這項(xiàng)研究里，294名志愿者被要求戴著有聲向?qū)⒂^一家博物館——其中一組被鼓勵(lì)多拍照片，而另一組則必須把他們的手機(jī)和相機(jī)留下。
When questioned afterwards, the photo takers could remember more about what they'd seen and less about what they'd heard.
在后續(xù)的問(wèn)詢(xún)中，拍照片的一組能記住更多他們看到的東西，但卻只能記住更少他們聽(tīng)到的內(nèi)容。
The result suggests the act of taking pictures and seeking out worthy frames to capture helps fix memories in our minds, according to the researchers.
研究者們說(shuō)，這個(gè)結(jié)果表明：拍照這個(gè)動(dòng)作，以及尋找值得拍的角度的過(guò)程，都在幫助我們穩(wěn)固大腦中的記憶。
"Our research is novel because it shows that photo-taking itself improves memory for visual aspects of an experience but can hurt memory for non-visual aspects, like auditory details," said the team, from New York University, University of Southern California, University of Pennsylvania and Yale University, in a statement.
“我們的研究是革新性的，它表明拍照能夠強(qiáng)化我們對(duì)一段經(jīng)歷的視覺(jué)記憶，但卻會(huì)妨礙非視覺(jué)的記憶——比如聽(tīng)到的細(xì)節(jié)。”研究團(tuán)隊(duì)在一次聲明中說(shuō)到。（這個(gè)研究團(tuán)隊(duì)的成員分別來(lái)自紐約大學(xué)、南加州大學(xué)、賓夕法尼亞大學(xué)和耶魯大學(xué)）
The museum test was backed up with a follow-up experiment using a virtual art gallery app on a smartphone.
這次博物館實(shí)驗(yàn)得到了一個(gè)后續(xù)實(shí)驗(yàn)的支持，這個(gè)實(shí)驗(yàn)用的是智能手機(jī)上的虛擬畫(huà)廊。
Some volunteers could take screenshots and some couldn't, and the same pattern was repeated – those who grabbed digital memories remembered more of what they'd seen, but less of what they'd heard from an audio commentary.
一些志愿者可以進(jìn)行截屏，而另一些則不能；實(shí)驗(yàn)結(jié)果中出現(xiàn)了同樣的模式——那些可以截屏的人記住了更多他們看到的東西，但卻記住了更少的他們聽(tīng)到的音頻評(píng)論。
The positive effect on visual memory was greater than the negative effect on auditory memory, the researchers found.
研究者們還發(fā)現(xiàn)：視覺(jué)記憶上的增強(qiáng)效果大于聽(tīng)覺(jué)記憶上的削弱效果。
What's more, in both experiments those who could snap photos were also more likely to remember objects they hadn't specifically taken pictures of as well as ones they had.
此外，在兩個(gè)試驗(yàn)中，那些能夠拍照的人都更容易記住一些他們并沒(méi)有特地去拍的東西。
"These findings suggest that having a camera changes how people approach an experience in a fundamental way," says the team.
研究團(tuán)隊(duì)說(shuō)：“這說(shuō)明，光是拿著一個(gè)相機(jī)，就能從根本上改變?nèi)藗儗?duì)待一次經(jīng)歷的方式。”
