Smiling faces in happy contexts are more memorable.
歡脫的你讓人印象更深刻
That's thetakeaway from recent research led by Stefania Righi, Ph.D. at the University of Florence in Italy.
義大利佛羅倫撒大學哲學博士 Stefania Righi最近的一項調查表明：
If you want to make sure the guy you spent 15 minutes schmoozing with at last month's office happy hour doesn't fumble for your name the next time he sees you, remember to smile whenever you first meet someone.
如果你想讓上月辦公室聚會裡你調戲15分鐘的男人下次見你時仍能牢牢記住你的名字，那麼請記住，第一次見任何人時都要面帶微笑。
In the study, researchers presented participants with a series of faces that were either smiling or fearful, alongside images of happy scenes like a party or fear-inducing scenes like a car crash. (The study didn't test the effects of neutral faces or scenes.)
研究中，調查員展示給參與者一系列微笑或面帶恐懼的臉龐，以及像派對一樣的歡樂場景或是令人恐懼倍增例如車禍現場一樣的場景（研究不涉及中性的表情和場景）
Then participants were shown those faces again and asked to remember whether they'd seen them before. Results showed that previously seen happy faces were remembered better than fearful faces — but only when they were initially presented alongside a happy scene.
接著，參與者們被再次展示了那些臉孔，並且回答是否記得見過他們。結果顯示之前那些快樂的臉龐比面帶懼色的臉龐更使人印象深刻——但前提條件是他們出現在歡樂的情境中。
The researchers propose two potential theories for why happy faces in happy contexts were remembered best. First, the combination of two happy images could enhance people's ability to pay attention, as previous research has suggested. Second, smiling faces might encourage people to bind together the image and its context more than fearful faces do.
研究者提出了兩個可能的關於為什麼高興的場合中出現的高興的表情使人印象深刻的理論。第一，就像以上調查指出的，兩張歡快的圖片可以強化人的注意力。二就是，微笑的臉龐比恐懼的臉龐使人更想將其記在心間。
The researchers write that it's possible people evolved this way because smiling people indicate "potential friend[s]" and remembering them could be useful in future encounters.
調查者還寫道一種可能，那就是面帶笑容的人給人以潛在的朋友之暗示，並且讓人感覺記住他們會對再次相見時有幫助。
While networking can be exhausting, it's worth it to slap on a smile right before you go up and meet someone who's work you've been following for years.
社交圈的建立可能是煎熬的，但在上前與追隨工作多年的人見面時面帶微笑絕對值得一試。
Another good tip? According to marketing strategist and Duke University professor Dorie Clark, you should talk about something you have in common with that person so they're more likely to trust and relate to you.
再來一條好建議？作為市場戰略師以及杜克大學的教授的Dorie Clark看來，你應常與多方找共同點來交談，這樣可以使他們更有可能信任與親近你。
