“社交变色龙”指在某个社会环境中能够通过吸收或模仿其他参与者所遵循的社会准则而进入并融入该环境的人。

 

A social chameleon will adopt and reflect the mood and sentiment of the situation and suppress their own. A chameleon will synthesise an opinion or position from observing those displayed by others in the situation, and forget that position when the social situation is left. The ultimate objective of the social chameleon is to blend into the social situation without disturbing that situation.

“社交变色龙”会吸纳并反应所处环境的情绪和状态，而压抑自己本身的情绪。他们会观察该环境中的其他人的态度和意见然后综合表达出一个合适的看法，而在他们离开那个社交环境时这个看法便被抛诸脑后。他们的最终目标是在不知不觉的情况下融入这个社交环境。
