De com n'és d'útil llegir ficció

Per si ho dubtàveu, podeu llegir-ho al Pacific Standard de 12 June 2013:
“A new study from the University of Toronto reveals that people who have just finished reading a short story are better able to deal with ambiguity and uncertainty than people who've perused essays. Psychologist Maja Djikic attributes the difference to less need for "cognitive closure" among the fiction readers, perhaps as a result of the mind-opening exercise of using one's imagination to explore characters' viewpoints. The researchers suggest their findings could possibly lead to ways to help people avoid snap judgments and bad decision-making.”
