【推荐1】Do People Need Small Talk to Be Happy?
Psychologists have long said that connecting with others is an important part of happiness, but just how much conversation we require is under examination. In one study, researchers found that small talk made up only 10% of the conversation related to happiness.
Still, chatting with strangers can brighten our morning. In a series of experiments, psychologists gave Chicago passengers different directions about whether to talk with fellow passengers-something they typically avoided.
Of course, some people are better than others at turning small talk into something bigger. In one study, people who were rated “less curious” by research had trouble getting a conversation roiling on their own, and had greater luck building closeness with others when they were supplied with questions that encouraged personal disclosure. But people who were considered "curious” needed no help when transforming conversations about ordinary things into personal exchanges.
