接下来的实验室测试与最初发现相符合,同时也表明快速嗅闻食物气味会起到反作用:那些短暂嗅闻饼干气味的测试者,选择不健康食物的概率是闻饼干气味超过两分钟的测试者的两倍。
Using a series of surveys, the study showed that the study participants who were better at recognising the smells were also more likely to be affected by them. It's almost as if a quick smell of something tasty and indulgent primes the brain to taste it, whereas a longer smell is as good as eating it.
通过一系列调查,科学家研究发现,在识别气味方面做得更好的参与者更有可能受到气味的影响。这就像是一种快速闻到某种美味食物,放纵大脑却体验它,然而闻了较长时间之后,就效果就如同吃过该食物一样。
Ultimately, the brain may not be differentiating the source of the sensory pleasure, according to the researchers. For now that's just a hypothesis about what's going on in the brain, but it tallies with previous research that our different senses can influence each other and that the senses of taste and smell are closely linked.
最终,依据研究人员的说法,大脑可能不会区分感官愉悦的来源。目前,这仅是一个关于大脑活动的假设,但它与之前研究相一致,即我们不同的感官可以相互影响,味觉和嗅觉是紧密相连的。
"We propose that this occurs because scents related to an indulgent food satisfy the reward circuitry in the brain, which in turn reduces the urge for actual consumption of indulgent foods," write the researchers.
