人们常说,“一孕傻三年”,但女性当了妈妈后真的会更健忘,注意力更差吗?研究显示,当了妈妈不会让注意力持续减退,这种说法并不准确。

“妈咪脑”是一种根深蒂固的看法,即女性当了妈妈后更健忘,注意力更差。
"In most studies, however, attention and memory tests are given to mothers very early postpartum," said Valerie Tucker Miller, a Ph.D. student in Purdue University's Department of Anthropology department. Miller is studying the effects of motherhood on attention, memory and other psychological processes.
美国珀杜大学人类学系博士生瓦莱丽·塔克·米勒称:“然而,在大多数研究中,注意力和记忆力测试的对象是那些处于产后极早阶段的女性。”她正在研究成为母亲对注意力、记忆和其他心理活动的影响。
"There are few issues with that," she added. "When you first have a child, you have a cascade of hormones and sleep deprivation that might be affecting attention and memory processes in the brain."
她还说:“这没什么问题。当你刚有孩子时,会遇到一连串的激素和睡眠缺乏问题,这可能会影响大脑中的注意力和记忆过程。”
In a new study testing the prevalence of "mommy brain," Miller used a revised version of the Attention Network Test (ANT), called the ANT-R, to compare reaction times among 60 mothers, all of whom were at least one year postpartum, and 70 non-mothers. The results, published online in the journal Current Psychology, show that mothers performed equally as well or better compared with women who had never been pregnant or had children.
