【用新聞學英文】Study: Video Games May Make People Happier研究：電玩可能讓人們更快樂

✋Article A study from the University of Oxford has found that people who spend more time playing video games may be happier and have a better feeling of well-being than those who play less. The study looked at 3,274 people, all of whom were over 18 years old, who played Nintendo's Animal Crossing: New Horizons and Electronic Arts' Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville. The study found that people who gamed more over a two-week period reported having a better feeling of well-being than those who played less. "If you play Animal Crossing for four hours a day, every single day, you're likely to say you feel significantly happier than someone who doesn't," professor Andrew Przybylski, the study's lead author, told the BBC. Przybylski said that past research had shown that the longer people spent playing video games, the unhappier they said they were. The professor said that players might have reported feeling happier in the new study because the games were very social, allowing people to play with friends or other players. However, the researchers only looked at two games, and they said they could not be sure that playing longer was actually what made people feel happier. ✋Summary 牛津大學研究發現與玩較少電動的人相比，耗費更多時間打電動的人可能會更快樂，也會擁有更好的幸福感。該研究調查3,274位民眾，他們全部皆為18歲以上，任天堂《集合啦！動物森友會》和美商藝電《植物大戰殭屍：和睦ㄇㄨˋ小鎮保衛戰》的玩家。然而，研究人員也表示本研究只探究兩個遊戲，而且也不能確定花更多時間玩電動確實是讓人們感到更幸福的原因。 ✋Words & Phrases average 平均, 一般, period 期間, 時期 ----- #每周二、四更新 #歡迎留言給Neil ----- 主持人：陳彣 (Neil) ----- Apple｜Spotify｜Google｜KKBOX｜Fistory｜SoundOn 搜尋訂閱：英語Follow me ----- ▍教育電臺 ▍官網:https://bit.ly/39ISswV ▍粉絲團:https://bit.ly/nerpodcastlink ▍線上收聽:https://bit.ly/3cyxBhE Powered by Firstory Hosting
