一位聽眾寫道：
Dear A Moment of Science, everyone gets bored from time to time. But I was wondering–what is boredom exactly, scientifically speaking?
親愛的《科學一刻》欄目：每個人都會時不時對某事產生厭倦。但是我想很好奇---從科學的角度看，厭倦究竟指的是什么？
Interesting question. Boredom is one of those really common things that, partly because it’s so common, is rarely investigated with much rigor.
厭倦是一個普遍存在的現象，因為其過于普遍，人們很少花費時間、精力進行調查研究。
But a study by researchers in Canada aims to change that. In fact, they’ve come up with a definition of boredom.
加拿大研究人員試圖改變這種現狀。事實上，他們對厭倦給出了定義。
Hit me! Okay. According to the study, boredom is "an aversive state of wanting, but being unable, to engage in satisfying activity," arising from failures in one of the brain's attention networks.
告訴我吧！調查研究表明，厭倦是指“一種渴望卻無法參與理想活動的反感狀態”，源于大腦注意力網絡故障。
