According to a new study out of Britain, the answer is a definitive “yes”。 Cell phones are dumbing down the human race and it’s measurable。 7 / 18 Professor Ian Robertson of Trinity College Dublin carried out the study。 His research found that most citizens in Britain have to remember five passwords, five pin numbers, two number plates, three security ID numbers, and three bank account numbers－quite a lot to just get through life on a daily basis! To get around this, most people use only one or two passwords。 This causes potential security problems for the average people, but also presents to the public what many people express as “information overload”。 Cell phones, laptops, and other memory devices（设备）offer a solution to all the numbers and codes that the average people have to remember, but people don’t use their memories as a result。 The study found that one quarter of all Britons couldn’t give their home phone numbers when asked。 What’s more, only a third of those surveyed could remember more than three birthdays of their immediate family members。 The study broke down the figures into age groups, providing some clear results。 About one third under the age of 30 couldn’t remember their home phone numbers without referring to a cell phone or other devices。 In the same age group, only 40% could provide important dates, such as birthdays or anniversaries, for family members。 For those over 50, 87% could remember details on family。 The study 8 / 18
