The researchers asked over 2,000 people to take part in nine different experiments. In each experiment, individuals were asked to participate in an activity – which ranged from going on a bus tour to eating in a food court.

研究人员请2000多人参加了9个不同的实验。在每一个实验中，参与者被要求参加一项活动，活动内容多种多样，可能是参加一个公车之旅，也可能是到一个美食广场吃饭。

They were asked to either take photos or not, and completed a survey to show how much fun they had during the task.

研究人员要求参与者拍照或不拍，然后请他们完成一项调查，来显示他们在执行任务过程中感受到了多少乐趣。

In almost every case, people who took photographs reported higher levels of enjoyment.

在几乎每一种情况下，拍照的人都报告称自己感受到的乐趣更多。

But the same effect happened in the other extreme, in that photo taking can make an unpleasant experience even worse, the study found.

但是研究发现，在另一个极端会产生同样的效果。因为拍照会使不愉快的体验变得更糟。

In one instance, participants went on a virtual safari and observed a pride of lions attacking a water buffalo, which most people did not enjoy.

其中一个例子，参与者进行一个虚拟的科学考察，观察一群狮子攻击一头水牛，对此大多数人都不喜欢。
