Ordering a chicken vindaloo is usually the sign of someone who has taste for very spicy food.
經(jīng)常訂咖喱雞肉餐的人，標(biāo)志著他們非常愛吃辣味食物。
It is also turns out to be an indication that their personality is also on the spicy side.
還標(biāo)志著他們的個(gè)性中有激情四射火辣的一面。
A new study has found that people who like stimulating their taste buds with meals such as a vindaloo curry also have risk-taking personalities.
一項(xiàng)新的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，那些喜歡用咖喱刺激他們的味蕾的人個(gè)性中也有冒險(xiǎn)的一面。
Researchers in the US tested 200 people to see how they reacted to certain adrenalin pumping sensations, such as standing on the edge of something or watching highly suspenseful movies.
美國(guó)研究人員測(cè)試了200人，觀察他們對(duì)某些腎上腺素的信號(hào)的反應(yīng)，比如，置身于恐怖環(huán)境中或看懸疑電影。
They were then given a small amount of capsaicin - the active ingredient in chilli peppers - in a glass of water and and asked to swish it around their mouth.
之后，他們?cè)谝槐屑尤肷倭坷苯贩郏苯贩鄣幕钚猿煞质抢苯匪兀寘⑴c測(cè)試的人把這種水含在嘴里漱口。
Those who said they liked the spicy taste were the same ones who enjoyed the adrenalin rush of risky behaviour.
那些說愛吃辣的人喜歡這種腎上腺素驟增的感覺，同樣也愛冒險(xiǎn)。
The test, known as Arnett’s Inventory of Sensation Seeking, was carried out by researchers at Penn University in Pennsylvania.
由賓夕法尼亞大學(xué)研究人員在賓夕法尼亞州大學(xué)做的這個(gè)測(cè)試稱為阿內(nèi)特式的尋求刺激感。
The AISS test is used by scientists to determine each person’s level of risk taking behaviour.
科學(xué)家們用這種測(cè)試方法來(lái)決定每個(gè)人的冒險(xiǎn)行為水平。
Dr. Alan Hirsch of the Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation in Chicago says the correlation between risk taking and spicy food makes total sense to him.
芝加哥嗅覺和味覺治療和研究基金會(huì)的阿蘭·赫希博士說，冒險(xiǎn)和辛辣食物之間的相關(guān)性對(duì)他來(lái)說非常有意義。
He said: 'There’s a long-standing hypothesis that risk takers are adrenaline deficient and that they take risks to get that adrenaline and feel better.
他說：“假設(shè)冒險(xiǎn)者長(zhǎng)期缺乏腎上腺激素，讓他們通過冒險(xiǎn)的方式去獲得腎上腺素，他們會(huì)感覺比較好。”
'So they’ll work with bombs or in other high risk environments and then they’ll feel normal.
“這樣，他們會(huì)冒險(xiǎn)使用炸彈或?qū)⒆约褐蒙碛谄渌唢L(fēng)險(xiǎn)的環(huán)境中，之后，他們會(huì)有一種比較正常的感覺。”
'Similarly, when you eat hot spicy food, it gives you a little bit of pain and therefore enhances your adrenaline level.'
“同樣，你在吃辣的食物的時(shí)候，會(huì)有一點(diǎn)點(diǎn)的疼痛感，因此，你的腎上腺素水平得以增強(qiáng)。”
