It was Day 1 of our vacation on Cortes, a beautiful quiet island

.

my son kept moaning

(

< br>呻吟

).

In front of him was a big window of facing the blue ocean

.

And

a cool gentle wind was coming in from the door

.

Clearly, he saw and felt none of it

.

Back

at

home,

I'd

soon

give

up

and

hand

the

phone

over

to

him

five

minutes

listening to this kind of moaning

It almost dinner when he looked

up

The next few days passed in peace

On Day 6, my son was lying beside me on the beach, watching the sun going down

He

was playing with the sand

And there was something shining in his eyes

I realized how time

slowed down for both of us

In the park, you see a group of people, all looking up at the sky

.

Without thinking about it, you look upwards, too

.

Why? In the concert,

someone begins to clap and suddenly the whole room joins in

.

You do,

too

.

Why?

Sometimes we feel we are acting correctly when we do the same

as others

.

The more people follow an idea, the better or truer we think

the idea is

.

It's the social proof

(

社会认同感

)

that works

.

The scientist Asch carried out an experiment

.

It shows how social proof can influence us

.

In a room, a man is shown Line 1, and next to it are three lines

(

A, B, and C

).

A is longer, C is

shorter and B is as long as Line 1

.

He must tell which of the three lines is as long as Line 1

.

When the man is alone, he gives the correct answer B

.

Then, five other man enter the room, and

each of them gives the answer C as they were told to

.

Now the man changes his idea and gives

the answer C

.

Asch got the same result many times among different subjects

(

实验对象

).

Why do we act like this? Well, in the past, following others was a way to keep away from

danger

.

Suppose that 5000 years ago you were hunting

(

打猎

)

with friends

.

Suddenly, they all

ran away

.

What would you have done? Would you have stayed? No, you would have run, too

.

We are descendants

(

后代

)

of those who copied others' action

.

It

is so deeply planted in our

mind that we still use it now

.

Social proof has special power

.

The advertising industry, for example, often makes use of

it

.

So be careful whenever a company says its product is

On March 10

Not able to afford the chess classes, she emailed

Makofsky

.

To her surprise and joy, Makofsky agreed that Tani could learn it for free

.

Though the chess club helps, it's largely believed that Tani's success lies in hard work

.

Theboy practices the game for many hours a day on the floor with his board

Every Saturday,

Tani goes to a free 3-hour class to improve his game skills
