It’s decided: decisive people no more accurate than self-doubters。

Research finds only difference between so-called action-oriented and state-oriented people is confidence

By Nicola Davis

It’s a trait best seen in the eager pub quizzer – a tendency to leap to an answer without a shadow of a doubt.

Now researchers have suggested that while people who have little difficulty making decisions are more confident in their choices, they are no more accurate than those who feel more torn.

Writing in the journal Plos One, researchers revealed how they conducted experiments to explore potential differences between people who tend to be decisive, known as action-oriented people, and those who struggle to commit to a choice, known as state-oriented people.

“What we found is that confidence was the only thing that was different,” said Dr Wojciech Zajkowski, the first author of the research, who is now based at the Riken social decision science laboratory in Japan.

It’s decided: decisive people no more accurate than self-doubters

Unlike her grandmother's generation, Chloe's age group is spending so much time on their phones at home that they are missing out on spending time with their friends in real life. Sheila, on the other hand, has made contact with old friends from school she hasn't heard from in forty years. 'We use Facebook to arrange to meet all over the country,' she says. 'It's changed my social life completely.'

Teenagers might have their parents to thank for their smartphone and social media addiction as their parents were the early adopters of the smartphone. Peter, 38 and father of two teenagers, reports that he used to be on his phone or laptop constantly. 'I was always connected and I felt like I was always working,' he says. 'How could I tell my kids to get off their phones if I was always in front of a screen myself?' So, in the evenings and at weekends, he takes his SIM card out of his smartphone and puts it into an old-style mobile phone that can only make calls and send text messages. 'I'm not completely cut off from the world in case of emergencies, but the important thing is I'm setting a better example to my kids and spending more quality time with them.'

Is it only a matter of time until the generation above and below Peter catches up with the new trend for a less digital life?

¿Ser famoso es buena o mala idea?

Le jour de l'an
“Bonne année ! Bonne santé !”
Depuis l'aube, on entend que cela dans la forêt des Merveilles. Tous les animaux se souhaitent le meilleur pour l'année nouvelle. Ils échangent aussi des poignées de pâtes, des gros bisous et des petits cadeaux.
“Ah ! pensent-ils, si tous les hommes agissaient comme nous au lieu de se faire la guerre, la Terre serait un véritable paradis.”

Des Milliers D'histoires

Histoire 1 - Le jour de l'An

Number of unmanned stores have increased in my town.  They are not vending machines.  For vending machines, we have to pay at first and then we can get goods.  In unmanned stores, we pick up goods and put the money in the box.  No one is watching!  But！　

田舎のほうに行くと、よく　野菜の無人販売所があります。
それは、農家の人が　作った野菜などを　売るお店なんですが、
そこに　店の人はいません。　野菜が少しずつ　袋に入っていて、
値段が書いてあります。　すぐそばに、お金を入れる箱が置いてあります。
その野菜が　欲しい人は、書いてある金額のお金を箱に入れればいいのです。
誰もいませんから、払わなくてもわかりません。でも、たいていの人はちゃんと
お金を箱に入れて　買って行きます。

そんな無人販売所が、最近　町でも見られるようになりました。
でも、売っているのは　野菜ではありません。
わたしの家の近所で見かけるのは、冷凍餃子の無人販売です。
販売機ではありません。販売機はお金を入れないと商品は出てきません。
この冷凍餃子の無人販売所は、外から中が良く見えるように、ガラス張りの部屋になっています。そして、大きな冷凍庫があって、そこに冷凍餃子がたくさん入っています。
おつりがいらないように、値段は、２袋１０００円です。
冷凍庫から　その冷凍餃子を取り出し、室内に置かれている代金箱にお金を入れます。
田舎の野菜の無人販売所と違うのは、防犯カメラが設置されていることです。
でも、その場には誰もいませんから、盗もうと思えば簡単に盗むことができると思います。
お金の入った箱だって、簡単に持って行くことができるかもしれません。
私は　２回ほど　その冷凍餃子を買いに行きましたが、その無人販売所が荒らされていることはありませんでした。
ちゃんと商品が冷凍庫に並んでいて、お金を入れる箱もきちんとありました。
たぶん、店員がいなくても　みんな　ちゃんとお金を払って商品を買っているのだと思います。

冷凍餃子以外にも、スイーツの無人販売所を最近、見かけました。車から見たので、まだ行ってはいませんが、どんなスイーツが置いてあるのか気になっています。

みなさんの国にも無人販売所ってありますか？
