A new Gallup poll found that belief in magic is widespread throughout sub-Saharan Africa, with over half of respondents saying they personally believe in witchcraft. Studies in 18 countries show belief varies widely (ranging from 15 percent in Uganda to 95 percent in the Ivory Coast), but on average 55 percent of people polled believe in witchcraft.
蓋洛普一項(xiàng)最新調(diào)查顯示，迷信巫術(shù)已經(jīng)在撒哈拉以南的非洲隨處可見，有超過半數(shù)的受訪者承認(rèn)他們相信巫術(shù)。盡管受訪的18個(gè)國家相信程度各有不同（烏干達(dá)為15%，象牙海岸為95%），平均比例仍然高達(dá)55%。
As might be expected, the older and less educated respondents reported higher belief in witchcraft, but interestingly such belief was inversely linked to happiness. Those who believe in witchcraft rated their lives significantly less satisfying than those who did not.
同預(yù)期一樣，年長(zhǎng)者和受教育程度較低者更容易迷信巫術(shù)，但是有意思的是它和幸福指數(shù)呈反比。相比非迷信者，迷信者對(duì)生活的滿意程度低了很多。
