科技發(fā)展對大腦有著怎樣的影響
“Clearly, technology is helping us research the brain, but how is the brain responding to technology?” NYU neuroscientist Alexandra Ochoa Cohen.
紐約大學(xué)神經(jīng)學(xué)家亞歷山德拉·奧喬亞·科恩表示：“毋庸置疑秧耗，科技可以幫助我們探索大腦疾渣，但是反過來，大腦又是如何對科技做出反應(yīng)的呢葛作？”
“There’s been a lot of mostly negative hype around this issue, often referred to as screen time, and how it’s ruining all of our lives. And while there’ve been a few studies that have examined these questions, the truth is that everything we encounter changes our brains. And we just don’t have the data right now to say how meaningful these changes actually are.”
“圍繞這個話題存在許多負(fù)面且夸張的說法俘陷，比如我們經(jīng)常討論所謂屏幕時間長短以及它是如何摧毀我們的生活。但其實之前也有不少研究探索過這些問題污淋，事實上我們遭遇的一切都會使大腦發(fā)生變化陨倡。只是現(xiàn)在還沒有數(shù)據(jù)可以證明這些變化到底有著多少意義√锲”
Cohen spoke March 21st, at the Cooper Union in Manhattan, during a discussion called Our Brain on A.I. [Artificial Intelligence]: Who’s In Control, Me or the Machine?
3月21日替废，一場主題為“人工智能時代的人腦：誰是主宰者，人類還是機器泊柬？”的研討會在曼哈頓的庫鉑聯(lián)盟學(xué)院舉行椎镣，科恩在此次研討會上作了發(fā)言。
“In fact, a recent study examining over 350,000 adolescents found a small but negative association with technology use and well-being, but they also found similar relationships between eating potatoes and wearing eyeglasses and well-being. And yet we don’t ask if potatoes and eyeglasses have destroyed a generation.”
“實際上兽赁，最近有一研究對35萬多名青少年進行測試状答，研究結(jié)果顯示科技設(shè)備的使用確實對青少年的健康發(fā)展有著消極影響，但是二者關(guān)系并不明顯刀崖，而且研究人員還發(fā)現(xiàn)青少年的健康發(fā)展和吃土豆惊科、戴眼鏡之間也存在類似的關(guān)系。所以到底是科技的泛濫亮钦，還是土豆馆截、眼鏡毀了年輕的一代，目前還不好說蜂莉±ⅲ”
That study, titled “The association between adolescent well-being and digital technology use,” appeared this January in the journal Nature Human Behaviour.
這篇題為《論青少年的健康發(fā)展與數(shù)字科技的使用有何關(guān)系》的論文刊載在一月份的《自然—人類行為》期刊上。
“Part of the issue in studying how technology influences our brain is that there are so many different forms of technology that often all get lumped into one category. So how we use technology, what specific technology we use, and what we use it for will be important variables to define in future research.
“關(guān)于科技如何影響人腦這方面的研究映穗，還有一部分問題在于科技的種類也分很多種窖张，但是在論及影響的時候人們通常會將所有科技混為一談。我們是如何使用科技的蚁滋、使用哪種具體類型的科技以及我們使用它的目的是什么都會影響該領(lǐng)域的未來研究方向宿接。”
“And even as we do more and better research on these topics, the answer is still likely to be that it’s complicated. In a way, we’re all part of a massive experiment in how technology is influencing our brains, and there will almost certainly be both positive and negative outcomes.”
“而且即使我們在這些議題上進行了更全面辕录、更深刻的研究澄阳，最后結(jié)果很有可能仍然是：錯綜復(fù)雜√ぐ荩總的說來，我們所有人也是這場宏觀社會實驗中的一份子低剔，感受著科學(xué)是如何影響大腦的速梗。對于這個問題肮塞，幾乎可以肯定最后的研究結(jié)果是利弊皆有∫鏊”
“So studies that track individuals’ behavioral and brain development over time will be particularly important. Like the ABCD, or Adolescent Brain and Cognitive Development Study, which is currently following over 10,000 kids for 10 years. And this kind of research will be especially important in helping us to figure out what lasting influences technology has on our brains.”
“所以那些長期追蹤個體行為以及大腦發(fā)育過程的研究顯得尤為重要枕赵。比如ABCD，即青少年大腦認(rèn)知發(fā)展研究位隶，最近將1萬多名青少年作為研究對象拷窜，對他們的大腦發(fā)展過程進行長達(dá)10年的觀察。這種長期研究涧黄，對于幫助我們了解科技對人腦會產(chǎn)生怎樣的長遠(yuǎn)影響篮昧，有著重要意義∷裢祝”
