We all react to sounds, sensations, and situations differently because of our personal experiences, cultural differences, and emotional associations. But in general, the things that annoy us tend to have three things in common, regardless of our personal histories: Unpredictability, unpleasantness, and uncertainty. A perfect example? The over-heard cellphone call.
我们对声音,感觉和情况的反应不同,因为我们的个人经历,文化差异和情感联想不同。但是总体上,不管我们的个人史多么的不同,使我们感到生气的事都有三个共同点:不可预测性,不愉快和不确定性。一个完美的例子?打电话时的串音。
It's not just the fact that it's rude, points out Lauren Emberson, a psychology graduate student at Cornell University who has studied the annoying nature of "halfalouges"—when you hear only one side of a conversation. It has to do with the way we process information. "Our brains are always predicting what's going to happen next, based on our current state of knowledge—this is how we learn about the world, but it also reflects how we are in the world," she says. "When something is unexpected, it draws our attention in, our brains tune into it because we're this information-seeking, prediction-loving cognitive system."
这不仅仅是没有礼貌,康奈尔大学一名心理学研究生研究了“一半对话” 的恼人本质 ,即你只听到对话的一面。这跟我们对信息进行加工的方式有关。“我们的大脑总是预测下一步要发生的事,这是以我们当前的知识状态为基础的——这就是我们如何认识世界,但也是对我们在世界上是怎样的反映。”她说。“当发生意外时,就引起大脑注意进行调谐,因为我们处于这种寻求信息,喜欢预言的认知系统中。”
