Short videos are changing people’s lifestyles and are also quietly affecting the way the brain works. Recently, in CCTV's "Full Release of Hard Technology" program, reporter Shuai Jun pointed out that a short video was crossed out just a few seconds after it was played. The picture is changing, the sound is changing, and the mood is changing. The only thing that remains unchanged is the movement of the upward stroke.
It seems that you are immersed in the torrent of information, but in fact it is difficult to leave clear memories. It is like "fetching water from a bamboo basket", which is gone in an instant.
Scientific research in recent years has shown thatWatching short videos in fragments is actually very harmful to the brain and will slowly damage our reading and learning abilities.
A short video is scrolled away after a few seconds. The screen keeps changing, and the brain switches wildly with it. It seems to be relaxing, but in fact it has been "working overtime".
Once the brain gets used to this fast and irregular switching rhythm, it will become particularly difficult to concentrate on coherent content such as lectures and reading.
The scientific research team of Central China Normal University has conducted related experiments: they prepared two pieces of video content with a total duration of 10 minutes. One group was a complete documentary, and the other group split the same content into 7 short videos for subjects to watch one by one.
Scientists discovered thatThe former's information memory accuracy rate reaches about 60%; while the latter's only about 40%.
The brain needs coherent and complete logic to form memories, and short videos are a bunch of scattered fragments with no time sequence and no causal logic. You think you have learned a lot of knowledge, but in fact your brain is always empty.
