The guests themselves, however, were less convinced. Just 30 per cent of the total attendees said they believed in the power of lucky charms, while 80 per cent of the rose quartz carriers said they felt lucky during the course of the evening, compared with just half (52 per cent) of those who hadn't.

然而，这些来宾中相信护身符能给他们带来好运的人却为数不多。相较仅半数（52%）没有护身符的参与者，在所有参与者中，仅30%的人表示他们相信幸运符能给他们带来好运。而持有粉晶的人中，有80%的人表示，在傍晚约会期间，他们能感觉到粉晶给他们带来的幸运。

Professor Richard Wiseman believes the experiment attests that lucky talismans, from crystals and lucky pants to rabbit's feet and four leaf clovers, can help to put singletons in the right frame of mind to find love.

理查德·怀斯曼（Richard Wiseman）教授认为，这个实验证明了像水晶、幸运短裤、兔子后腿（作为幸运的象征）、四叶草等这类幸运物能使单身人士保持良好心境，去追寻自己的真爱。

"The aim of this study was to find out how daters can increase their chances of success by making tiny changes to their behaviour," he said. "What we’ve discovered is that even something as small and inconsequential as a quartz stone can have a huge effect on people’s behaviour by putting them in a more positive or ‘lucky’ frame of mind. Singles are more likely to mingle if they feel lucky – in short, when it comes to the dating game, you really do make your own luck!”
