Why are workers prone to sending each other pictures of lovely animals or viral videos that provoke choked giggles in small bedrooms around the world? New research suggests that people use these types of so-called distractions to subconsciously boost their moods, which can lead to increased creativity and better problem solving in the workplace.
Researchers from the University of Western Ontario divided study participants into three groups and put them into specific moods using music and video. The first group listened to an upbeat Mozart piece and watched a video of a laughing baby; the second listened to a musical score from the movie Schindler’s List and watched a news report about an earthquake) and the third listened to music and watched a video that were shown not to affect mood. Volunteers were then asked to learn to recognize a pattern that existed in a problem.
The results of the study, which were published in Psychological Science, the journal of the Association for Psychological Science, showed that the participants in the happy group were vastly better at discerning the pattern than those who were put into negative or neutral moods.
Ruby Nadler, one of the study researchers and a graduate student at the University of Ontario, said the takeaway from this study was that positive moods are helpful in enhancing creative problem solving, while also promoting flexible and careful thinking. "If you have a project where you want to think innovatively, or you have a problem to carefully consider, being in a positive mood can help you to do that," Nadler said in a news release for the Association for Psychological Science.
So next time your coworker sends you a link to the latest laugh-inducing viral video, take a moment to check it out before tackling the most complicated item on your to-do list. Your boss will thank you. [br] What kind of mood do the second group feel according to the third paragraph?
选项
A、Contented.
B、Sad.
C、Happy.
D、Indifferent.
答案
B
解析
综合推断题。由定位段可知,心情愉快的被试组辨认解决方式的能力要远远优于心情沮丧组或情绪中性组,然后再根据上一段中三组分别倾听不同的音乐和观看不同的视频所产生的心情,可以推知第二组的心情是不愉快的、沮丧的。故B)“心情忧伤的”为正确答案。
