An informal enquiry of the facial expressions of children as they queued up to meet Santa Claus during the 2003 Yuletide season showed that about 82% of the 300 children appeared to be indifferent to seeing Santa. As this finding seemed perhaps different from what conventional wisdom would suggest, that most children would be exhilarated or happy to visit with Santa, this study was replicated in 2004.
在2003年圣诞季,对排队等着见圣诞老人的孩子们的面部表情进行的一项非正式调查显示,在300名儿童中,约82%的孩子见到圣诞老人时似乎无动于衷。由于这一发现似乎与传统观念所认为的大多数孩子见到圣诞老人会兴奋或开心有所不同,于是在2004年重复了这项研究。
