People like to post their selfies(自拍!on social media. To know more about it, scientists at Syracuse University in New York recently did a research and came up with some surprising findings.
People who post selfies and use editing software to make themselves look better show behaviors connected to narcissism, the researchers said. 1. Makana Chock, a professor from Syracuse University, said because social media is mostly used by people to share unimportant information about their lives, it is a good place for people to "work towards satisfying their own vanity.'' Those “likes" under their Facebook selfies make them feel good.
2. Some people feel "peer pressure" to post selfies and some follow the popular belief that if
there is no picture of an event or experience, it did not really happen. "Anyway, it shouldn't be seen as negative. People get sense of satisfaction especially when they get likes. And it does no harm," Chock said.
Other findings from the study include: There are no major differences on how often men and women post selfies and how often they use editing software. 3.
Chock said posting selfies on social media is not all that different from what people have done for many years. On trips and special events, our parents and grandparents used cameras instead of phones to take photos. They would bring back photos to show friends and family. You had no choice but to look at them. You probably commented about how nice everyone in the photos looked, especially children and the person showing the photos. They were happy to hear your comments. 4. On social media, however, people can decide not to look at photos --even if they click “like".
A.Taking selfies is definitely one experience that many people like doing and sharing with the online world.
B.People who post group selfies also show a need for popularity and a need to belong to a group.
C.Narcissists are people who think very highly of themselves, especially how they look.
D.That was the old way of "clicking like".
E.The drive to take selfies can nevertheless do some good to society as a whole.
F.But men who post selfies showed more of a need to be seen as popular than women did.
