调查显示女性比男性更容易说对不起

Women apologize more often than men do, a new study showed。

一项最新调查研究表明，女性要比男性更频繁地道歉。

But it's not that men are reluctant to admit wrongdoings, the study showed. It's just thatthey have a higher threshold for what they think warrants reparation. When the researcherslooked at the number of apologies relative to the number of offenses the participants perceivedthey had committed, the researchers saw no differences between the genders。

研究显示，并不是男性不愿意道歉，只是他们认为值得道歉的标准应该更高一些。当研究人员把被调查者道歉的次数和他们认为自己冒犯别人的次数放在一起比较，结果发现两性之间不存在差异。

Study researcher Karina Schumann and her colleagues conducted two studies to see if gendersdo indeed differ in how often they apologize, and if so, why this might be。

调查研究者卡莉娜·舒曼表和她的同事们进行两项研究试验，来观察两性是否在道歉的频率上存在差异，如果有，这些差异是因何而起。

In one, 33 university students aged 18 to 44 kept an online dairy for 12 days documentingwhether they apologized or did something they thought required an apology, even if theydidn't actually say they were sorry. They also kept track of how often they felt someone hadcommitted an offensive act against them that warranted an apology。
