你是否在与人交谈时，很难看着对方的眼睛把话说下去？人们通常认为，讲话时避免眼神接触是怕尴尬或不自信的表现。然而，日本京都大学的科学家们给出了另一种科学解释。 It turns out we're not just awkward, our brains actually can't handle the tasks of thinking of the right words and focusing on a face at the same time. 事实上，我们并不只是尴尬，而是大脑无法同时兼顾“思考恰当词汇”和“眼神接触”的任务。 The effect becomes more noticeable when someone is trying to come up with less familiar words, which is thought to use the same mental resources as sustaining eye contact. 当人们努力搜索不太熟悉的词汇时，这个效应会更加明显。科学家认为，这两项任务占用同样的心理资源。 |
