手機的“幽靈振動”

不時要摸摸兜里的手機振了沒？但拿出來看又發(fā)現(xiàn)并沒振過，這是不是患上了強迫癥？這種誤解是源于大腦錯誤詮釋輕微的肌肉痙攣。別擔心，這不是幻聽或幻覺，而是一種文明病，心理學將它稱之為"信號發(fā)覺"(signal detection theory)，也可以稱之為“幻覺振動綜合癥(phantom vibration syndrome)。

Do you ever think your mobile phone is ringing or vibrating when it's not? That's called "phantom vibration syndrome."

你曾經聽到手機鈴聲響起，或感到手機在振動，事后又發(fā)現(xiàn)沒有么？這被稱之為“幻覺振動綜合癥。

Phantom vibration syndrome isn't really harmful -- in the study of college students, more than 90 percent said they considered phantom vibrations to be "only a little" or "not at all" bothersome.

“幻覺振動綜合癥不見得有害，在針對大學生的一項調查中，超過90%的受訪者認為這“僅有一點兒或者“根本不讓自己煩惱。

But some believe it's a warning sign that too much technology may be hazardous to human interaction.

但也有些人認為，這提醒人們，過多的依賴科技或許對人們之間的交流有壞處。
