A staggering four out of five parents worry that their children will become addicted to Facebook, according to a study. Eighty percent believe social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter have the ability to take over their children's lives. One in three parents, meanwhile, believes the Internet has the power to 'rewire' brains without a person's knowledge and thinks their children are in danger from the web. The extraordinary findings come from a poll of 1,000 parents carried out by the Nominet Trust, an organisation that promoted internet projects that address social disadvantage. However, Nominet said their findings fly in the face of neurological evidence. The Trust worked with neuroscience and education expert Dr Paul Howard Jones, who analysed research on the internet and society. The report - The Impact of Digital Technologies On Human Wellbeing - concluded that there is no neurological evidence to suggest that the internet is more effective at 'rewiring' our brains than other environmental influences. It also found that the internet is a valuable learning resource and all forms of learning cause changes within the brain. There have been reports that use of the internet with its vast resources of information is changing the way people think and affecting their ability to concentrate. But Nominet said that 'scaremongering and misinformation' about internet use can potentially deny its benefits to people, in particular parents who are worried about the effect on their children's development. The report also found that social networking sites, in themselves, are not a special source of risk to children, and are generally beneficial as they support existing friendships. In addition, playing action video games can improve some visual processing and motor response skills, while computer-based activity provides mental stimulation, and can help slow rates of cognitive decline.

根據(jù)一項(xiàng)調(diào)查，多達(dá)八成父母擔(dān)心自己的孩子會沉迷于Facebook不可自拔。 80%的父母認(rèn)為Facebook和Twitter這樣的社交網(wǎng)站會左右孩子的人生。 此外，還有三分之一的父母認(rèn)為網(wǎng)絡(luò)能在不知不覺下“改裝”一個(gè)人的大腦，并認(rèn)為自己的孩子正遭到來自網(wǎng)絡(luò)的威脅。 這一調(diào)查是由互聯(lián)網(wǎng)慈善機(jī)構(gòu)Nominet基金會開展的，涵蓋了1000名父母。調(diào)查結(jié)果很令人意外。 不過，Nominet基金會說他們的發(fā)現(xiàn)和神經(jīng)學(xué)上的證據(jù)是相悖的。 和該基金會合作的神經(jīng)科學(xué)家和教育專家保羅?霍華德?瓊斯博士對這一和網(wǎng)絡(luò)和社會相關(guān)的調(diào)查進(jìn)行了分析研究。 這一題為《數(shù)字技術(shù)對人類幸福的影響》的研究報(bào)告得出結(jié)論說，目前并沒有神經(jīng)學(xué)上的證據(jù)表明網(wǎng)絡(luò)比其他外界影響力能更有效地“改裝”大腦。 研究還發(fā)現(xiàn)，網(wǎng)絡(luò)是一個(gè)寶貴的學(xué)習(xí)資源，各種形式的學(xué)習(xí)導(dǎo)致大腦產(chǎn)生了變化。 曾有報(bào)道稱，對網(wǎng)絡(luò)豐富的信息資源的利用正在改變?nèi)藗兊乃季S方式，并影響了他們集中注意力的能力。 但是Nominet機(jī)構(gòu)稱，對于網(wǎng)絡(luò)使用的“危言聳聽和不實(shí)信息”可能會阻礙網(wǎng)絡(luò)造福于人們，特別是那些擔(dān)心網(wǎng)絡(luò)會對孩子成長產(chǎn)生不利影響的父母。 研究報(bào)告還發(fā)現(xiàn)，社交網(wǎng)絡(luò)本身對于孩子并沒有特別大的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，而且大體上是有益的，因?yàn)樯缃痪W(wǎng)絡(luò)能夠增進(jìn)友誼。 此外，打動作網(wǎng)游能夠提升視覺處理能力和運(yùn)動反應(yīng)能力，而電腦相關(guān)活動可以刺激智力發(fā)育，并有助于減緩認(rèn)知能力的衰退速度。 相關(guān)閱讀 社交網(wǎng)絡(luò)現(xiàn)代溝 年輕人好友以千計(jì) 青少年抑郁癥或與上網(wǎng)時(shí)間有關(guān) 調(diào)查：多數(shù)人稱離開高速網(wǎng)絡(luò)無法生活 美國父母擔(dān)憂社交網(wǎng)絡(luò)危及孩子隱私 （中國日報(bào)網(wǎng)英語點(diǎn)津 陳丹妮 編輯：馮明惠） |
