Dr. Richard Stephens has spent a lot of time researching profanity. In past research he has found that swearing increases pain tolerance since it apparently triggers the body's "fight or flight" response which can then lead to a type of "stress-induced analgesia."
理查德·斯蒂芬斯博士花费了大量时间来研究脏话。他在过去的研究中发现咒骂能够增加疼痛忍耐度，因为它激发了身体的“战斗或逃跑”反应，能让人“缺失压力感应”。
"Fight or flight" response also releases adrenaline which got Dr. Stephens thinking about the connection between swearing and athletic performance. Along with a colleage, Dr. Stephens had volunteers participate in a study in which they performed the Wingate endurance test twice.
“战斗或逃跑”反应还能释放肾上腺素，因此斯蒂芬斯博士在考虑咒骂与运动表现之间是否有关系。他和另一位同事一起让志愿者参加了两次温盖特无氧耐力测试。
One time swearing and the other time using a neutral word. When volunteers swore, peak power rose by an average of 4.6 percent. Stephens hypothesizes that swearing improves athletic performance by "letting go."
在两次测试中，志愿者分别采用了咒骂词汇和中性词汇。当他们咒骂时，最高能量平均提升了4.6%。斯蒂芬斯假定咒骂可以通过“释放”来改善运动表现。
