  • You meet a new acquaintance, and as you go to shake hands after introducing yourself, you suddenly realize: "Wait...I already forgot their name".

    你剛認識一位新朋友,正當你介紹完自己並和對方握手時,突然發現:「等等... 我已經忘記他的名字了。」

  • Why does this always happen and what does it say about your brain?

    為什麼總是會發生這種事情,而這和你的大腦又有什麼關係?

  • Chances are you can remember somebody's face over their name.

    這有可能是因為比起對方的名字,你更容易記得他的臉。

  • Our brains are hardwired to recognize facial details.

    我們的腦袋特別容易辨認臉部特徵。

  • Brain scans even show that individual brain cells are fired in response to any given face.

    腦部掃描也發現,腦細胞接受到臉部訊息時會有明顯的反應。

  • But when it comes to forgetting names, it may have to do with something called the "Baker Effect."

    但說到忘記名字,這可能和一個叫做「貝克效應」的東西有關。

  • If I tell you I'm a baker, I'm providing information about what I do, and how I spend my time, but if I say my name is Baker, it has no mental links and is vulnerable to forgetting.

    如果告訴你我是烘焙師,你便能知道我的職業及常做的事,但若告訴你我的名字叫 Baker,這個資訊在腦中無法產生聯結,因此容易被忘記。

  • After all, names are completely arbitrary and hold no specific information in them.

    畢竟,取名字是很隨意的,也不具有什麼特殊資訊。

  • And if your brain can't make connections between multiple pieces of information, particularly things you already know or feel familiar with, then you're more likely to forget that information.

    如果你的腦袋無法將不同的資訊聯結起來,尤其是和那些你原本就了解或熟悉的事做聯結,那你很可能就會忘記它。

  • Of course, it doesn't help that you're often focusing on introducing yourself.

    當然,這也可能是因為你太專注於想介紹自己。

  • This is known as the "next-in-line effect."

    這就是所謂的「輪流發言效應」。

  • Instead of watching and listening to the other person, your brain starts focusing on its own routine: what you'll say, how you'll move, etc.

    你的大腦不但沒有在看或是聽對方的介紹,反而是專注在自己的事情上,例如你等等要說什麼、要擺怎樣的手勢等等。

  • And we simply aren't very good at both disseminating information at the same time we try to take in and store new information.

    我們就是不太能在提供訊息的同時,一邊接收新的資訊。

  • Our brains have both short-term and long-term memory.

    我們的腦袋中有著短期記憶和長期記憶。

  • But the short-term memory, or sometimes called working memory, can only hold so much information, and if you don't focus on it, it fades away quickly.

    但短期記憶又稱工作記憶,它就只能保存那麼多的訊息,而如果你不專注於它的話,很快就會淡忘了。

  • Finally, other research suggests that, drumroll... you may just not care.

    最後,也有研究顯示... 可能是你根本不在乎。

  • Honestly, you may be at a party in which you'll never see this person again, or just generally uninterested in forming a new relationship.

    老實說,因為在派對認識的人可能再也不會見面,又或者你真的對結交新朋友不感興趣。

  • Simply put, the more interest you have in something, the more likely your brain is to make new connections.

    簡單來說,當你對某件事越感興趣,腦袋中越容易產生新的聯結。

  • As a result, people who enjoy making new relationships are tuned in and focused, and barely feel as if their memory is being used or tested.

    所以,想交新朋友的人會很投入且專注,幾乎不會覺得他們努力在背誦或是在考驗記憶力。

  • So how can you improve your ability to remember names?
