昂立外语情感篇：可以巩固男女感情的化学反应

昂立外语情感篇：可以巩固男女感情的化学反应
Researchers have shed light on the chemistry that bonds one person to another by
taking brain scans of men being stroked while in their underpants.
据英国《卫报》报道，研究者在对大脑进行扫描时发现，当男性穿着内裤被女性
抚摸时，大脑皮层会分泌一种化学物质，增强双方关系。
The Finnish study found that gentle stroking – which was not in sexually arousing
areas – changed levels of opioid brain chemicals which work behind the scenes to
form lasting bonds in animals.
芬兰科学家研究发现普通程度的抚摸——不触及性敏感地带——将会改变大脑
内阿片类化学物质（ opioid brain chemicals）的分泌程度，这些分泌物会在动物
体内起到促成长久联系的作用。
The findings suggest that opioids might be the critical chemicals that enables human
brains to distinguish between strangers and people who are closer to us, such as
friends, families and lovers.
研究表明，阿片类物质可能作为一种非常重要的化学物质，帮助人类大脑区别陌
生人以及关系亲密的人，诸如朋友、家人和恋人。
"We know this is hugely important for humans because we have these strong, lasting
bondings with friends and relatives and so on. But what kind of system maintains
these bonds, and makes them last?" said Lauri Nummenmaa who studies the neural
circuitry of emotions at Aalto University in Finland.
芬兰阿尔托大学(Aalto University)情绪神经回路研究员,劳瑞·努曼玛（Lauri
Nummenmaa）表示：―这个发现对于人类而言相当重要，因为我们与我们的朋友，
亲属等都有着深刻，持久的关系。但究竟是什么样的生理系统在维持这种联系，
使得这种关系得以长久保持的呢？‖
Studies in animals have shown that opioids can play a crucial role in pairing up.
Prairie voles are monogamous in the wild, but when given a drug that blocks opioid in
their brains, they seek out other partners. If opioids are blocked in monkeys, they
groom others less and neglect their babies.
动物实验中发现，阿片类物质将在两性关系中起到至关重要的作用。野生的草
原田鼠属于单配型生物，但当实验组给草原田鼠服用药物，脑中阿片类物质分泌
被抑制以后，它们开始寻找其他的伴侣。倘若猴子脑内的阿片类物质被抑制分
泌，它们梳理其他同类毛发的次数减少，也不再看护自己的小孩。
To see whether opioids were important in human bonding, the researchers invited
nine couples into the lab. The men stripped off to their underpants and lay under a
blanket in a PET scanner. The first scan was taken while the men were alone. For the
second, their partners touched them gently all over, but avoided anywhere likely to
arouse them sexually.
