Psychologists now believe that noise has a considerable effect on people’s attitudes and behavior. Experiments have proved that in noisy situations (even temporary ones ), people behave more irritably and less cooperatively; in more permanent noisy situations, many people cannot work hard, and they suffer from severe anxiety as well as other psychologecal problems. However psychologists distinguish between“sound”and “noise”.“Sound”is measured physically in decibels.“Noise”cannot be measured in the same way because it refers to the psychological effect of sound and its level of “intensity”depends on the situation. Thus, for passengers at an airport who expect to hear airplanes taking off and landing, there may be a lot of sound, but not much noise (that is, they are not botered by the noise). By contrast, if you are at a concert and two people behind you are whispering you feel they are talking noisily even if there is not much sound. You notice the noise because it affects you psychologically. Both sound and noise can have negative effects, but what is most important is if the person has control over the sound. People walking down the street with earphones listening to music that they ecjoy, are receiving a lot of decibels of sound, but they are probably happy hearing sounds that they control. On the other hand, people in the street without earphones must tolerate a lot of noise which they have no control over. It is noise pollution that we need to control in order to help people live more happily.

| "The age of melancholy" is how psychologist Daniel Goleman describes our age. People today experience more depression (feeling of sadness) than older generations, though the technological wonders help us every day. It might be because of them. Our lifestyles are increasingly driven by technology. Our days are filled with phones, computers and the Internet. There is a constant need to check for texts and emails, to update Facebook, MySpace and Linkedin profiles and to acquire the latest notebook or 3G cell phone. Are we being served by these technological wonders or have we become enslaved by them？ I study the psychology of technology, and it seems to me that we are sleepwalking into a world where technology is severely affecting our well-being. Technology can be hugely useful in the fast-paced modern living, butwe need to stop it from taking over. For many of us, it is becoming increasingly difficult to control the impulse to check our inbox yet again or see whether the headlines have changed since we looked last time. Our children are in a similar position. In many homes, the computer, with which we work and play, has become the centre of attention. How does this arise, and what is it doing to us？ People who place a high value on material goals are unhappier than those who are less materialistic. Our culture also Constantly reminds us that time is money. This indicates a need for total efficiency (效 率), which is the reason for us to allow laptop computers and mobile phones to blur the separation, between work and home. As one unhappy human resource manager in a high-tech company 'put it, "They gave me a mobile phone so they can own me 24 hours a day, and a potable computer, so my office is now with me all the time-I cannot break out of this. pressure." Sound familiar？ Psychologists generally believe that the lack of a clear separation between work and home greatly damages our relationships with loved ones. It also makes us quite likely to focus on the here and now at the expense of long-term goals. Modern society is in danger of exchanging standard of living for quality of life. We need ways to help recover those increasingly large parts of our lives that have been controlled by technology, to regain mastery over technology and learn to use it in a healthy and positive way. |

Caffeinated tea had the same effect in the women. the study found, although more was needed to get the same caffeine boost. "Count roughly two cups of tea for a cup of coffee," said study leader Karen Ritchie of INSERM, the French National Institute for Health and Medical Research. But the researchers didn&39;t find a similarly protective effect in men, although other studies have found a benefit to males.
How might caffeine help ward off cognitive decline？ "It is a cognitive stimulant." said Ritchie. It also helps to reduce levels of the protein called beta amyloid in the brain. she said. "whose accumulation is responsible for Alzheimer&39;s disease but which also occurs in normal aging."
Ritchie said she wasn&39;t sure why men in the study didn&39;t benefit from caffeine. "Our hypothesis is that either women metabolize caffeine differently than men, or there may be an interaction of the caffeine with the sex hormones.the estrogen-progesterone balance," she said.
The French study confirms previous research, said William Scott. professor of medicine at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. who has researched caffeine&39;s beneficial effects against Parkinson&39;s disease, also a neurodegenerative disorder.
As for caffeine only protecting women, Scott noted that just 2,800 of the 7,000 study participants were men. and the results might have differed if more men were included.
A study published in February in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition looked at 676 healthy men and found that regular coffee drinkers had a lower rate of cognitive decline over a 10-year follow-up than those who didn&39;t drink coffee. Those who drank three cups daily had the least signs of decline. Both Scott and Ritchie agreed that more study is needed. Ritchie&39;s research will next look at the relationship between caffeine and Alzheimer&39;s.
