Most of us can lose our train of thought midway through a sentence but lots of us just put it down to having a 'senior moment'. But absent-mindedness is not just about 'senior moments', says neuropsychologist Dr Joanna Iddon, co-author of Memory Boosters. 我们中的大多数人都可能在说话的时候忘记后面想说什么，但很多人都认为这是暂时性失忆所致。但健忘并不是暂时性失忆，神经心理学家、Memory Boosters一书的合著作者乔安娜·伊登（Joanna Iddon）博士说道。 "In a recent study of healthy adults, the average number of memory slips, like putting the coffee jar in the fridge, was around six per week, irrespective of age, gender and intelligence," says Dr Iddon. "In fact, it was the younger, busier people that were the most absent-minded. "最新的一篇有关健康成年人的研究发现：不论年龄、性别和智力，人们每周平均健忘6次，比如把咖啡罐放入冰箱，"伊登博士说道。"事实上，较为年轻、较为忙碌的人最为健忘。" |
