| To a large degree,the measure of our peace of mind is determined by how much we are able to live in the present moment . In spite of what happened yesterday or last year,and what may or may not happen tomorrow,the present moment is where you are-always! Without question,many of us have mastered the sensitive art of spending much of our lives worrying about a variety of things-all at once.We allow past problems and future concerns to control our present moments,so much so that we end up anxious,discouraged,depressed,and hopeless.On the other hand,we also put off our satisfaction,and put off what we should think of first,and our happiness,often convincing ourselves that "someday" will be better than today.Unfortunately,the same mental power that tells us to look toward the future will only repeat themselves so that "someday" never actually arrives.John Lennon once said,"Life is what's happening while we're busy making other plans." When we are busy making other plans, our children are busy growing up, the people we love are moving away and dying, our bodies are getting out of shape,and our dreams are slipping away.In short,we miss our life. Many people live as if life were dress rehearsal(彩排) for someday in the future.It isn't.In fact,no one has a guarantee that he or she will be here tomorrow.Now is the only time we have,and the only time that we have any control over.When our attention is in the present moment,we push fear from our minds.Fear is the concern over events that might happen in the future-we won't have enough money,our children will get into trouble,we will get old and die,whatever. To fight against fear,the best method is to learn to bring your attention back to the present.Mark Twain said,"I have been through some terrible things in my life,some of which actually happened.I don't think I can say it any better.Practice keeping your attention on here and now.Your efforts will pay off sooner or later." |

| What can a wide eyed,talking robot teach us about trust? A lot,according to Northeastern psychology professor David DeSteno, and his colleagues, who are conducting a research to determine how humans decide to trust strangers. The interdisciplinary(跨学科的) research project,funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) , is being conducted together with Cynthia Breazeal,director of the MIT Media Lab's Personal Robots Group, Robert Frank,an economist,and David Pizarro,a psychologist,both from Cornell. The researchers are examining whether gestures could affect our trustworthiness judgments."People tend to mimic(模仿)each other's body language,"said DeSteno,"which might help them develop intuitions (直觉) about what other people are feeling." This project tests their theories by having humans interact with the social robot,Nexi,in an attempt to judge her trustworthiness.Without knowing the participants,Nexi has been programmed to make gestures while speaking with selected participants-gestures that the team thinks could determine whether or not she's considered trustworthy. During the first part of the experiment, Nexi makes small talk with them for 10 minutes, asking and answering questions about topics such as traveling,where they're from and what they like most about living in Boston. "The goal was to create a normal conversation with accompanying movements to see what the mind would intuitively(直觉地) collect about the trustworthiness of another,"said DeSteno. The participants then play an economic game called "Give Some",which asks them to determine how much money Nexi might give them at the expense of her individual profit.Meanwhile,they decide how much,if any,they'll give to Nexi.The rules of the game allow for two distinct outcomes:higher individual profit for one and loss for the other,or relatively smaller and equal profits for both partners. "Trust mightn't be determined by only one gesture,but rather a 'dance' that happens between the strangers,which leads them to trust or not trust the other," said DeSteno,who will continue testing their theories by seeing if Nexi can be taught to predict the trustworthiness of human partners. |
