In one study of the ability, she dubbed “thin-slicing, ” the late psychologist Nalini Ambady asked participants to watch silent 10-second video clips of professors and to rate the instructor's overall effectiveness.

在纳里尼·安巴迪称为“行为薄片撷取”能力的一项研究中，这位已故的心理学家要求参与者观看教授们授课的 10 秒无声视频片段，并对教师的整体效果进行评分。

Psychologist Nalini Ambady of Tufts found something similar when she and colleagues showed drawings of people in an obedient pose (head down) or a dominant one (arms crossed, face forward) to Japanese and Americans.

塔夫茨大学的心理学家 Nalini Ambady 在她和同事向日本人和美国人展示顺从姿势（低头）或支配姿势（双臂交叉，脸朝前）的人的图画时发现了类似的东西。
