Playing With Babies Can Make Your Brain Waves Sync Up Together 和婴儿玩耍时,你们的脑电波会同步 Playing with a tiny human is one of those small pleasures in life where you really feel like you're connecting with a person. It's not just in your mind, either. We now have evidence that the rise and fall of their brain activity matches yours when you play together. 和小宝贝玩是生活中的一种小乐趣,你会感觉自己和他心灵相通。这并不只是你脑海里的臆想,现在已有证据表明,当你和小孩一起玩的时候,他们大脑活动的波动与你是一致的。 A study conducted by researchers at the Princeton Baby Lab in the US recorded the brain activity of 18 children aged between 10 and 15 months as they engaged with an adult experimenter. 美国普林斯顿婴儿实验室的研究人员进行了一项研究,记录了18名10至15个月大的儿童在与一名成年实验者进行交流时的大脑活动。 "Previous research has shown that adults' brains sync up when they watch movies and listen to stories, but little is known about how this 'neural synchrony' develops in the first years of life," says cognitive psychologist Elise Piazza. 认知心理学家Elise Piazza说:“之前的研究已经表明,成年人在看电影和听故事时,大脑会同步,但是对于这种‘神经同步’在生命的最初几年是如何发展的,我们知之甚少。” |
