一个调查显示,百分之二十五的受访者认为他们需要讨论重要事情时找不到人,许多美国人的孤独和寂寞由此可见。

  

艾奥瓦州州立大学的Wang Jing,英国哥伦比亚大学的Juliet和斯坦福大学的BabaShiv写到“如果不算Wifi技术和Facebook这类社交网络的强势,现在的美国人比二十年前的更孤独。”一个新研究发现寂寞的人和有很强社交能力的人在购物方面有所不同。


“Consumers often construct their preferences based on consensus-related cues and prefer majority-endorsed products,” the authors write.

In the current research, investigators set out to discover how this growing segment of consumers reacts to social consensus information.The study is published in the Journal of Consumer Research.


作者写道,“顾客总是根据多数人的选择和情感暗示来做出他们的选择”。在当前研究中,调查人员正在试图弄清这种日趋明显的消费心理和社会情感的联系。此次研究会随《消费者调查》杂志出版。

  

调查人员想知道那些孤独的人是做出和众人一样的选择还是根据跟人情感来选择。

But lonely people, on the other hand, vastly preferred minority-endorsed products (preferred by only 20 percent of previous consumers).During their experiments, the researchers asked participants to evaluate products based on information expressed by previous consumers that liked the products. Researchers also measured participants’ feelings of loneliness and found that to a large extent, non-lonely people preferred products preferred by 80 percent of previous consumers.
However, lonely people don’t want to advertise that they prefer items endorsed by a minority.

但是另一方面,孤独的人更喜欢做出非主流的选择——一般只有百分之二十的人做出的选择。在测试中,研究人员让参与者去对那些被其他人喜爱的物件做出选择。研究人员同时测试了参与者的孤独程度,发现那些不孤独的人会做出百分之八十的人做出的选择。

但是,孤独的人缺并不想让别人知道他们的选择是少数人的选择。

“Lonely people’s preference for the minority-endorsed products was only found when their preferences were kept private,” the authors write. “They switched to majority-endorsed products once their preferences became public.”

“只有在隐私被保护时,孤独的人才会做出和少数人同样的选择,”坐着写到,“一旦信息公开,他们就会改变立场,做出和大多数人一样的选择。”
