研究顯示 使用表情包可以洞察人類的行為

Using emojis can be an effective way to communicate and gives insight into contemporary human behaviours, a new international research showed.

一項新的國際研究顯示，使用表情包是溝通和洞悉人們當前行為的一種有效方式。

"Contemporary behaviours such as emojis can be considered true forms of emotion on a neurological and interpersonal level," according to the research project released by the Australian Catholic University and Britain's Edge Hill University.

根據澳大利亞天主教大學和英國邊山大學發布日前的研究項目，“從神經學和人際關系層面來說，人們當前的行為，例如（使用）表情包，就是他們感情的真實反映。”

"Using emojis and emoticons help add emotional depth to our written communication, provides context in the same way body language does in face-to-face interactions, but it can also give us insight into contemporary human behaviour."

“使用表情包和情感符有助于增加我們書面溝通的情感深度，用與面對面溝通肢體語言相同的方式提供情境，但是它也能讓我們洞悉人們當前的行為。”

The research found personality traits could be calculated with reasonable accuracy, by assessing an individual's use of emojis.

該研究發現，性格特征能夠通過一個人對表情包的使用較為精確地計算出來。

Although the use of emojis has increased rapidly, there are still many circumstances where people opt to avoid revealing their emotions.

雖然表情包的使用增加得很快，但是人們在很多情況下仍然會選擇避免使用表情包透露自己的情感。

"Online expression of emotion is also dependent on who we talking to, as emoji usage is much higher in social media than in a more formal email setting," researchers said.

研究者們表示：“情感在網絡上的表達還在于你在跟誰對話，因為表情包在社交媒體上的使用比正式的電子郵件要頻繁很多。”
