　　国王和吃货之间有什么关系?伯克利大学研究发现，当人们掌握权力的时候，他们饮食的方式会发生变化。手握重权的人吃饭时往往是大张着嘴，咂着嘴唇，食物残杂如雨落下……强权者都是大吃货，吃货是不是更容易变成有权者呢?

　　A snazzy new video from the folks at U.C. Berkeley’s Greater Good Science Center gives a brief overview of their research on the unexpected consequences of feeling powerful. Their studies have shown, for example, that even when you give people a teensy bit of (mostly pretend) power, they tend to act in ways that are more impulsive and more selfish.

　　一段由伯克利加州大学善科学中心制作的新演讲视频展示了该中心对人的权利意识导致的意外后果的相关研究。他们的诸多研究成果中包括如下一条：如果你赋予某人一丁点(几乎只是假装的)权利，他们很可能表现得比以往更为强势或自私。

　　Dacher Keltner, a U.C. Berkeley psychologist, describes what he’s come to call their Cookie Monster study: He and his team divided study participants into groups of three, randomly assigning one person to act as the leader. The researchers gave the trios a relatively boring task and made them work on that for a little while, and then brought in a plate of four cookies. Each participant took one, and they left the fourth for a little while, but in most groups, the leader eventually grabbed the last cookie for themselves.

　　伯克利大学的心理学专家、达契尔·克特纳对他自称为“蓝色甜怪饼”研究的项目成果是这样介绍的：他和他的研究团队将研究参与者分为三人一组的各个团队，在各个团队中随机选出一名领导者。研究者们对每队三人组合分配一项稍嫌繁琐的任务，让各组花时间共同完成这一任务，然后给每组端上一盘四块饼干。每个成员都取一块饼干，将第四块饼干弃置在盘里，稍过片刻，然而，在大多数团队中，最终都是领导者拿去最后一块饼干自己吃掉了。

　　But Keltner says that one of his grad students noticed something they weren’t exactly expecting: an apparent correlation between perceived power and terrible table manners. "He came to me and he’s like, I think people are eating differently when they have power," Keltner says in the video. "And, lo and behold, our high-power person is more likely to eat with their mouth open, lips smacking, crumbs literally like falling onto their sweater. It’s ridiculous."

　　不过，克特纳称他的一个研究生注意到了一种出人意料的现象：权利意识和糟糕的餐桌礼仪之间有着明显的联系。“他走过来，对我说，‘我觉得，当人们掌握权力的时候，他们饮食的方式会发生变化。’”克特纳在视频里说，“你瞧，那些手握重权的人吃饭时往往是大张着嘴，咂着嘴唇，食物残杂如雨一般落到他们的衣服上。一副滑稽模样。”
