萌物

在研究中，在周五呈现的个性与社会心理研究年会上，研究人员发现，人们在观看萌物系ppt的时候要比观看2B系或正常系捏破包装纸上的泡泡数更多。

In the study , presented Friday ( Jan. 18 ) here at the annual meeting of the Society for Personality and Social Psychology , researchers found that people watching a slideshow of adorable pictures popped more bubbles on a sheet of bubble wrap than did people viewing funny or neutral pictures .

萌物比二货动物更容易让人产生这种感觉。

Cute animals produced this feeling significantly more strongly than did funny animals .

为什么我们会有想要大嚼萌物的渴望呢？

Why do we have the urge to jokingly munch on cute things ?

最新研究发现面对萌物表面上毫无理由便飙升的攻击值其实十分正常。

New research finds that seemingly strange aggressive responses to cuteness are actually the norm .

尽管如此，这些研究结果只能证明人们对萌物有一种言语表达的倾向，而不能证明真实情感。

Still , those results could have merely identified a verbal expression for cuteness , rather than a real feeling .

看萌物组图的人们平均捏破120个泡泡，看搞笑系的平均捏破80个，而看正常系的差不多平均捏破的泡泡数量则为100出头。

The people watching a cute slideshow popped 120 bubbles , on average , compared with 80 for the funny slideshow and just a hair over 100 for the neutral one .

你怎么能不喜欢萌物，你的过半客户在格莱美颁奖礼上都像从动画片里走出来的。

I think it 's weird you don 't like cutesy considering half your clients at the Grammys looked like they just stepped out of a my little pony fever dream .

实际上，研究人员真正的目的是想了解，与对二货动物和正常动物相比，人们是否会对萌物产生一种直接外向的攻击性，也就是捏爆更多泡泡。

In fact , the researchers really wanted to know if people would respond to cute animals with an outward display of aggression , popping more bubbles , compared with people looking at neutral or funny animals .

这种在感觉上的无意识重复令我们产生将萌物放入嘴中的欲望。另外一个解释是：这是“啃咬嬉戏”的一种形式，这种行为在许多哺乳动物中很常见，体现了我们兽性的一面。

This overlap in senses unconsciously gives us the desire to put cute things in our mouths.The other explanation is that it 's a form of play biting , which is common in many mammals and is a behavior from our animalistic sides .
