Feeling good about our actions — not guilt or pity— motivates giving according to the latest research
51 seeing or hearing about suffering children makes most people uncomfortable that grief is not what drives them to dig into their pockets and donate The reasons people decide to be selfless it turns out may be slightly more 52
In the study published in the Journal of Neuroscience researchers found that people are more likely to give when they think it will make them feel better They donate 53 when they feel hope about putting smiles on those expectant and suffering faces And that hope or similar feelgood sensations are driven by the brain’s reward systems
Researchers — and charities — have long known that putting a(n) 54 face on an abstract problem opens hearts and wallets Josef Stalin once said that while one death is a(n) 55 a million is merely a number Studies have since found that quantifying the size of a disaster or particular need actually 56 giving while presenting a single story is more likely to cause a desire to help
But it wasn’t clear whether this identifiable victim effect resulted from people’s 57 over their own privilege and resources — or from a sense of connection with the 58 and an urge to feel good about making a difference
To find out researchers led by Alexander Genevsky a graduate student in psychology at Stanford imaged the brains of 22 young adults In the scanner they saw either a silhouette (剪影) or a head shot of a young African child As in previous studies participants were far more likely to give if they saw a face than a blank silhouette— donating almost twice as much in photo trials than in the others However this decision was related strongly to their 59 If they showed little activity in their nucleus accumbens— a brain region linked to every type of pleasurable experience— they were actually less likely to give But if there is a sharp 60 of activity in this reward area they felt good and gave more And the photos of the children were more likely to 61 this reward center Activity in the accumbens in fact completely 62 the difference in giving seen between the silhouettebased requests and the photobased ones
While the findings point to the feelgood 63 behind giving other research will have to address the question of why givers get that positive emotional boost Do people feel rewarded when they give because they think about the happiness of the recipient — or do they feel good because they see themselves as 64 and that selfesteem boost (信心增强) is moodenhancing Such information could help charities 65 their messages to maximize their effectiveness

He said recent statistics from the United States indicated that people who worked indoors all day in artificial light were more __57_____ melanomas than those who worked outdoors Indoor workers should try to have at least one hour of __58_____ to direct sunlight every day ___59_____ in the early morning and late afternoon when ultraviolet intensively was lower Dr Laura said

Feeling good about our actions — not guilt or pity— motivates giving according to the latest research
51 seeing or hearing about suffering children makes most people uncomfortable that grief is not what drives them to dig into their pockets and donate The reasons people decide to be selfless it turns out may be slightly more 52
In the study published in the Journal of Neuroscience researchers found that people are more likely to give when they think it will make them feel better They donate 53 when they feel hope about putting smiles on those expectant and suffering faces And that hope or similar feelgood sensations are driven by the brain’s reward systems
Researchers — and charities — have long known that putting a(n) 54 face on an abstract problem opens hearts and wallets Josef Stalin once said that while one death is a(n) 55 a million is merely a number Studies have since found that quantifying the size of a disaster or particular need actually 56 giving while presenting a single story is more likely to cause a desire to help
But it wasn’t clear whether this identifiable victim effect resulted from people’s 57 over their own privilege and resources — or from a sense of connection with the 58 and an urge to feel good about making a difference
To find out researchers led by Alexander Genevsky a graduate student in psychology at Stanford imaged the brains of 22 young adults In the scanner they saw either a silhouette (剪影) or a head shot of a young African child As in previous studies participants were far more likely to give if they saw a face than a blank silhouette— donating almost twice as much in photo trials than in the others However this decision was related strongly to their 59 If they showed little activity in their nucleus accumbens— a brain region linked to every type of pleasurable experience— they were actually less likely to give But if there is a sharp 60 of activity in this reward area they felt good and gave more And the photos of the children were more likely to 61 this reward center Activity in the accumbens in fact completely 62 the difference in giving seen between the silhouettebased requests and the photobased ones
While the findings point to the feelgood 63 behind giving other research will have to address the question of why givers get that positive emotional boost Do people feel rewarded when they give because they think about the happiness of the recipient — or do they feel good because they see themselves as 64 and that selfesteem boost (信心增强) is moodenhancing Such information could help charities 65 their messages to maximize their effectiveness
