看到可愛萌物就想捏 萌系侵略來咯

In 2012, Oriana Aragon and Rebecca Dyer did an experiment. They asked volunteers to look at cute, funny, and neutral animal photos and then rate how they felt.
2012年，耶魯大學(xué)的兩位心理系研究生Oriana Aragón和Rebecca Dyer做了一項(xiàng)實(shí)驗(yàn)，她們讓志愿者觀看可愛動(dòng)物、搞笑動(dòng)物和中性動(dòng)物的照片，然后對(duì)他們的感受進(jìn)行評(píng)級(jí)。

As expected, cute photos elicited stronger emotions — the volunteers were more likely to agree with statements like, “I can’t stand it!” and “I want to squeeze something!"
結(jié)果不出所料，可愛的照片引發(fā)了志愿者更強(qiáng)烈的情感，比如“我受不了了！” ，“我想捏點(diǎn)東西！”

In a follow-up study, the researchers found people who watched a slideshow of cute animal photos popped more bubbles on a sheet of bubble wrap compared to people who watched funny or neutral slideshows.
研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)，與觀看搞笑或中性動(dòng)物的照片的人相比，觀看可愛動(dòng)物照片的人在泡泡紙上擠爆了更多的泡泡。

Cute aggression, or playful aggression, is superficially aggressive behavior caused by seeing something cute, such as a human baby or young animal.
Oriana Aragón和Rebecca Dyer兩人在其論文中將此行為描述為“Cute Aggression”，即“可愛侵略或萌系侵略”。

People experiencing cute aggression may grit their teeth, clench their fists, or feel the urge to bite, pinch, and squeeze something they consider cute.
當(dāng)我們看到可愛的東西，如人類嬰兒或小動(dòng)物，而引起的表面攻擊行為，經(jīng)歷可愛攻擊的人可能會(huì)咬緊牙關(guān)，握緊拳頭，或者有咬、捏、擠他們認(rèn)為可愛的東西的沖動(dòng)。

Aragon estimates that around 50 to 60% of people act in a mock aggressive way when confronted with something unbearably cute, and not everyone will have this ambivalent psychological experience.
Oriana提出，大約50%-60%的人在面對(duì)難以忍受的可愛事物時(shí)會(huì)表現(xiàn)出一種模擬攻擊性的行為，并不是人人都會(huì)有這種矛盾的心理體驗(yàn)。
