如果你在发短信的同时又在一边看电视一边听收音机，在听了这个研究结果后你可能会想停下来只专心地做一样事情，因为研究表明，一心多用会让大脑萎缩。 研究发现，同时使用多种科技产品的男人和女人大脑关键部位的灰色物质会较少。令人担忧的是，萎缩的这部分大脑和处理情感有关。 研究人员称，同时操作多种电子产品可能会缩短注意力持续的时间，让人难以集中注意力和形成记忆。 If you are sending a text, watching the TV or listening to the radio, you may want to stop and give this your full attention. Multi-tasking shrinks the brain, research suggests. A study found that men and women who frequently used several types of technology at the same time had less grey matter in a key part of the brain. University of Sussex researchers said: ‘Simultaneously using mobile phones, laptops and other media devices could be changing the structure of our brains.’ Worryingly, the part of the brain that shrinks is involved in processing emotion. The finding follows research which has linked multi-tasking with a shortened attention span, depression, anxiety and lower grades at school. The researchers began by asking 75 healthy men and women how often they divided their attention between different types of technology. This could mean sending a text message while listening to music and checking email, or speaking on the phone while watching TV and surfing the web.z |
