你的好心情能让你的伴侣更健康

或许会让你惊讶，但这是事实，你的好心情会让你的伴侣更健康。

A new study suggests that people whose spouses are happier are probably also in better shape, even independently of their own happiness. In fact, the study’s data suggests that people with a happy partner are 34% more likely to be healthy than those married to a downer.

一项最新的研究表明，如果一个人的配偶更快乐，那么他本人的健康状况也可能更好，甚至与他自己是不是快乐无关。事实上，这项研究的数据表明，拥有性格开朗的配偶的人有超过34%的可能比那些与容易沮丧的人结婚的人更健康。

The authors propose a couple of reasons why a happy person might improve the health of their lover. First, a happy spouse is a better caretaker; he or she is more likely to have the emotional energy to look after a significant other, making sure they’re O.K., have taken their medications and are looked after when they’re ill.

作者提出了几个理由，来说明为什么一个快乐的人会改善他爱人的健康。首先，一个快乐的伴侣更会照顾人;他在情感上更可能有精力去照顾身边重要的人、去确保他们安好、去监督他们是否按时吃药以及在他们生病的时候照顾他们。

Secondly, people with a positive outlook are more likely to be playing the long game; they eat better, they exercise, they sleep regularly, they make plans and avoid doing self-destructive things because they feel good about the future. And they bring their companions along for the ride. “Happy people drag their spouses out of bed to go exercise, and they encourage them to eat healthier,” says Bill Chopik an associate psychology professor at MSU, and lead author of the study.
