Oxytocin Amasintha Zokonda Zandale

Akafunsidwa, anthu amapereka zifukwa zomveka zomwe amadzizindikiritsa ngati a Democrat, Republican, Independents, kapena mamembala achipani china. Komabe kafukufuku wa asayansi andale a John Alford, Cary Funk, ndi a John Hibbing akuwonetsa kuti pafupifupi theka la kusiyana kwakusiyana pazokonda andale pakati pa anthu kumatsimikizika.

Nanga bwanji theka linalo? Labu yanga idayesa kuyesa kuwona ngati zokonda zandale zisintha. Zotsatira zidatidabwitsa.

Kafukufuku wanga anali woyamba kuzindikira udindo wa neurochemical oxytocin pamakhalidwe abwino. Nditcha oxytocin "molekyulu yamakhalidwe abwino" chifukwa zimatipangitsa kukhala osamala za ena-ngakhale osawadziwa-m'njira zowoneka. Koma oxytocin ingapangitse anthu kusamala za wandale wachipani china?

Munthawi yamapulogalamu apurezidenti wa 2008, anzanga ndi ine tidapereka ma oxytocin kapena placebo kwa 88 ophunzira aku koleji achimuna omwe adadzizindikira kuti ndi a Democrats, Republican, kapena Independents (azimayi sanatengeredwe chifukwa cha zotsatira za oxytocin pakusintha kwa msambo). Pakadutsa ola limodzi, oxytocin yokwanira imalowa muubongo kuti anthu azidalira, kuwolowa manja, komanso kumvera ena chisoni. Koma ndale zimatilekanitsa ndi ena, monga a Jonathan Haidt adawonetsera m'buku lake The Righteous Mind: Why People Good Divided by Politics and Religion, tsono tidatsimikiza ngati oxytocin itha kukhala ndi vuto lililonse.

Kuyesaku kunali kosavuta: Voterani kuchokera pa 0 mpaka 100 momwe mumamvera mumtima ndi andale monga purezidenti wa U.S.

Tidapeza kuti ma Democrat pa oxytocin anali ndi malingaliro otentha kwambiri kwa onse ofuna Republican kuposa ma Democrats omwe adalandira malowa, kuphatikiza kuwonjezeka kwa kutentha kwa 30% kwa John McCain, 28% yolimbikitsa Rudy Giuliani, ndi 25% kukwera kwa Mitt Romney.

Kwa a Republican, palibe. Oxytocin sanawapangitse kukhala othandizira kwambiri a Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, kapena John Edwards. Odziyimira pawokha adadandaula, koma oxytocin adawasunthira pang'ono kupita ku Democratic Party.

Tikukumbukira zambiri, tidapeza kuti si onse a Democrat pa oxytocin omwe adatenthedwa kupita ku GOP koma okhawo omwe sanagwirizane ndi chipanichi. Adawatcha ovota a Democratic swing, koma chowonadi ndichakuti ovota aku Republican nawonso sangasunthidwe chimodzimodzi.

Zomwe tapeza zikugwirizana ndi kafukufuku yemwe akuwonetsa kuti ma Democrat samakhazikika pamalingaliro awo, pomwe ma Republican amadandaula kwambiri zachitetezo ndipo amakhala ndi mayankho okokomeza pambuyo pakupanikizika kosayembekezereka.

Ngakhale sizingakhale zoyenera kwa andale kupopera mankhwala a oxytocin mlengalenga pamisonkhano yandale, kafukufukuyu amapereka chandamale kwa akatswiri aku Republican kuti akope ovota a Democratic: agwire ntchito yomvera chisoni komanso kudalirana. Romney ayenera kuwonetsa kuti ndi wofikirika komanso wodalirika nthawi iliyonse poyera.
