Our experiences are stronger if we share them with someone. That means good experiences become better, and bad ones become worse. Thats according to a new study by Yale University.Scientists did a small study on female(女性)college students. In the test they share chocolate with someone they thought was another participant(参与者). But in fact, it was a scientist. In each test, they got two pieces of chocolate. They ate one piece at the same time with the “participant” and the other piece alone. The participants thought the chocolate was tastier and more enjoyable when they shared it with someone. Even though both pieces of chocolate were from the same box.Scientists then did another experiment, this time with bitter, unpleasant chocolate. Again, the participants thought the chocolate was bitterer than the piece they ate alone.“When people think of shared experience, what usually comes to mind is being with friends or Family.” said scientist Erica Boothby. “We often dont know how much people around us influence (影响)our decisions.” according to Erica.However, it does show that sharing things with a friend may just make your good way a little brighter. Because the study only looked at female college students, it doesnt mean the whole (全部的)picture.36 .
