Psychological studies on role of eating with someone.

在这项研究中，我们探讨了与人一起进餐的心理价值。这项研究中的实验研究没有显示出与某人一起就餐对食物和饮料的适口性有统计学上的显著影响。另一方面，在与人一起吃饭的情况下，人们发现比单独吃饭时更积极的情绪。例如，参与者在与某人一起吃饭的情景中报告的更愉快，花费更多的时间，表达并记住积极的表情。这些结果表明，和别人一起吃饭的好处不仅仅是我们共用一张桌子，而且还有共同作用的效果，这意味着我们和其他人一起完成了一些事情。

In this study, psychological merit of eating with someone is explored. Experimental studies in this study could not show a statistically significant effect of eating with someone on palatability of the foods and the beverages. On the other hand, the more positive emotions were found in the situations eating with someone than eating alone. For example, participants reported more pleasant, expended more time, expressed and remembered positive expressions in the situation eating with someone. These results suggest that the merit of eating with someone is not only a situation where we share the table, but coaction effect that means we accomplish something with others.
