When you try to contact an old friend you haven't seen for many years, do you choose to make a call or send a message? Many people may choose to send messages so that they won't feel embarrassed. However, new research has found that making a phone call is the best way to get in touch.
In the study, researchers did all kinds of experiments. In one, they asked 200 people to make predictions about what it would be like to contact an old friend by email or by phone. Then the people did one or the other. Although people supposed that a phone call would be more embarrassing, hearing someone's voice actually made the experience better.
In another experiment, the researchers had strangers connect by sending messages, talking over video chat, or talking using only audio(音频). They found that both forms of voice communication—whether video or audio only—made the strangers feel more connected than communicating by sending messages.
Many people choose to send messages or emails instead of calling because they think it's convenient. What's more, they think it's a form that can be controlled. In fact, sending messages or emails can make it hard to find out the true meaning behind a conversation. A phone call is actually more convenient than sending messages. When calling, both can know about the meaning behind the conversation. There is no need for them to think about the possible meanings behind words.
So if you want to feel more connected to the people you're talking to, you should call them instead of sending messages.
