Play there: these positions will rob you of confidence-the phone, posture and confidence-IT information

2016 today, almost no one is willing to go out without her phone. After all, this is the most convenient tool, it has changed the way we learn and experience the world and interact with the world.

However, these changes are also a bit disturbing, we already know that spending too much time on the phone will reduce our productivity. Although a popularity so fast technology, to determine the result of its frequent use needs more study.

However, up to now, the way we use the device seems to have developed its bad side. In 2012 the popular TED speech, social psychologist, Harvard Business School Professor Amy Cuddy says that might change our hormone secretion, this phenomenon was embodied cognition (Embodied cognition) part of this concept, the notion that our mind and body are so closely linked, thoughts on body response plays a part. Meanwhile, researchers are working on body posture can trigger reactions studied the mechanisms of the brain.

It is obvious that with the popularity of electronic devices, more and more people look mental weakness. If you want proof, so the next time you may wish to look around when in public. The neck and shoulders down by New Zealand physiotherapist Steve called iHunch pose.

"Our position is partly under the influence of the external environment," health education at San Francisco State University Professor Erik Peper told Quartz. "We are now sitting more time, is also more collapse do not-especially with his head down looking at cell phone, tablets and computers-or do we loose lay on the sofa. This is low-power (powerless) position may increase cortisol and testosterone reduction. ”

What does this mean? Peper told us when our brain adrenal secretion of some hormones in the blood increases, will have appropriate chemical changes in the brain, usually in response to physical or psychological pressure. Although it's not necessarily a bad thing, but the hormones our body can be adjusted into a "fight-or-flight" response, make people more impulsive and emotional stress. The other hand, the decrease in testosterone may be associated with depression and a decline in sex drive.

2014 study indicated that, for those who are suffering from depression, so looking down posture is more likely to arouse some negative memories. But Peper believes these poses far greater impact than that. He said cause and classical conditioning theory, which is a stress reaction, sometimes we tighten the body, in order to protect us against danger. On this subject and vulnerable position, once let us out of our hunters.

Today's researchers, including the Peper and Cuddy, they believe that a collapse of the body posture may provoke a similar reaction in our brain, bring us closer to a nervous state of mind. It's like, similar odors can take you back to your brain the first time records the odor of a time and a place.

The good news is that this poor posture is correct it is simple--if you wanted to correct something. Cuddy and her colleagues found in advanced research Maartem in 2013, straight posture can boost your confidence levels. In the study, 75 students were randomly assigned to use four different sizes of electronic devices, from mobile phones, tablets, notebooks to desktops.

After the experiment has the apparent end, researchers gave no further instructions, but are waiting to see how much time asking each student to spend when they will go on your way. Very interesting is that those with larger equipment-means they are more likely to be taken iHunch seated people-more assertive in asking if they could leave the room. Equipment is smaller, more users is not so strong-willed. In addition, sitting straight people, more likely to recall the relative positive self character traits, and these positive characteristics also make them more confident.

So how can we improve? Following actions may seem insignificant, but Peper said do this everyday, you can avoid the disadvantages of regular phone :

1. check your posture. If necessary, you can set a reminder on your phone, but it is important to ensure that round-the-clock attention to the issue.

2. each time after the call is finished, after you put your hands to the head, elbows back stretching, and looked up. This position allows your body to form a more open position.

3. when using a Tablet, mobile phone or music player, ensure and gaze at the same level. Although it sounds counterintuitive, but it is a good habit worth cultivating.

Intelligent technology and the relationship between human well-being, our research is still at an early stage, although a number of warnings we receive over the top, in fact did not bring much of a threat, but it cannot be denied that excessive reliance on cell phones are not beneficial to our health. Meanwhile, we need to know is that we can still take some measures to alleviate the phone threats to our health. Not until it was too late.

玩手机有讲究：这些这些姿势会剥夺你的自信 - 手机,姿势,自信 - IT资讯

2016的今天，几乎不会有人愿意出门不带手机了。毕竟这是有史以来最方便的工具，它改变了我们学习以及体验世界、与世界互动的方式。

不过，这些变化也有一点令人不安，我们已经知道花费在手机上的时间过多会降低我们的生产力。虽然对于一项普及程度如此之快的技术，要确定其频繁使用所带来的结果还需要更多的研究。

但是，截至目前，我们使用设备的方式好像只开发出了它不好的一面。在2012年广为流传的TED演讲中，社交心理学者、哈佛商学院教授Amy Cuddy表示这一情况可能改变我们的激素分泌，这一现象是具身认知（Embodied cognition）这一理念的一部分，该理念认为我们思维和身体是如此密切相连，所思所想都对机体反应发挥着作用。同时，研究人员正在对身体的姿势可能触发大脑反应这一机制做出考察。

很明显，随着电子设备的普及，越来越多人看上去精神无力。如果想要证据，那么下一次你在公共场合时不妨举目四顾。这种脖子和肩膀的向下倾斜被新西兰理疗师Steve称为iHunch姿势。

“我们的姿势一部分是受外部环境影响的，”旧金山州立大学健康教育的一名教授Erik Peper这样告诉Quartz。“我们现在坐着的时间更多，显得也更加垮塌没正形——尤其是低着头看着手机，平板和电脑——亦或我们松散地躺在沙发上。这都属于低权势（powerless）姿势，可能会引起皮质醇的增加和睾丸素的减少。”

这意味着什么呢？Peper告诉我们当我们大脑之中肾上腺分泌在我们血液中的一些激素增加，大脑就会有相应的化学物质变化，通常都是为了应对生理或是心理上的压力。虽然这并不一定是坏事，但这种激素可以将我们的身体调节进入一种“飞翔或战斗”的反应状态，使人的应激反应更加地冲动和情绪化。另一方面，睾丸素分泌的减少可能和抑郁以及性冲动下降相关联。

2014的这项研究表明，对于那些受抑郁症困扰的人而言，这样低头看手机的姿势更可能唤起一些负面的记忆。但是Peper相信这些姿势的影响远远不仅于此。他说原因和经典条件反射理论有关，这是一种应激反应过程，我们有时候会缩紧身子，为的是保护我们不受危险侵害。这种生理上服从且弱势的姿势曾经一度让我们远离我们的捕猎者。

今天的研究者们，包括Peper和Cuddy，他们相信一个垮塌的身体姿势可能会在我们的大脑之中引起类似的反应，让我们更接近一种紧张的精神状态。这就好比，相似的气味能够带你回到你的大脑第一次记录住这个气味的时间和场合。

好消息是这种错误的姿势要纠正起来还是比较简单的——如果你有心想要纠正的话。Cuddy和她的同事Maartem在2013年的先期研究中发现，坐姿笔直可以提升你的自信水平。在该研究中，75名学生被随机分配使用四种尺寸大小不同的电子设备，从手机、平板、笔记本到台式机。

在实验已经明显结束之后，研究者们并没有给出进一步指示，而是等着看每位学生要花多长时间询问他们什么时候才可以走。非常有趣的是，那些用着更大一点的设备——意味着他们是更可能不采取iHunch坐姿的人——在询问能否离开房间上显得更加坚决。而设备越小，使用者就越显得就没那么意志坚定。除此之外，坐姿笔直的人，更容易回忆起相对积极的自我性格特点，而且，对他们这些积极特点的认定也更有信心。

所以我们该如何改进？以下举动看上去可能微不足道，但Peper表示做到这些日常小事，你就能避免经常手机带来的坏处：

1.检查你的姿势。必要的话你可以在手机上设置一个提醒器，但是一定要确保全天候关注这个问题。

2.每一次打完电话后，将你的手举到头后，胳膊肘向后拉伸，并且抬头。这个姿势可以让你的身体形成一个更加开放的姿势。

3.在使用平板、手机或者是音乐播放器时，确保和视线处于同一水平。虽然听起来有些不合常理，但是这是一个值得培养的好习惯。

针对智能科技和人类福祉之间的关系，我们的研究还处于初级阶段，虽然此前一些我们接受到的警告过于夸张，实际上并没有带来多大的威胁，但不可否认，过度依赖手机对我们身体并无益处。同时，我们要知道的是，我们依旧可以采取一些小手段来减轻手机对我们健康的威胁。千万不要等到事情太迟。
