Angela Duckworth: 我将毅力定义为对长期目标的热情和坚持的结合。这不仅仅是坚持不懈,还包括对所追求目标的热爱。我用毅力量表来衡量毅力,但它存在局限性,容易作假,而且人们的回答会受到参考偏差的影响。在低风险环境下,毅力可以预测一些积极的结果,例如西点军校的毕业率。然而,人类的命运复杂多变,毅力并非决定性因素。高成就者通常都具备热情和毅力,但毅力量表不适合用于招聘或招生。毅力是可以培养的,因为人的大脑具有可塑性,并且有研究表明可以通过干预来提高毅力。例如,一项针对小学生的干预研究表明,学习毅力和成长型思维方式可以提高他们的学业成绩。一些组织在培养员工的毅力方面做得很好,例如克利夫兰诊所和远征学习学校。逆境对性格发展的影响并非线性关系,适度的挑战结合支持是关键。挑战与支持并存才能促进健康发展,领导者、导师和父母的角色至关重要。过度保护孩子可能会导致他们出现心理问题。“软性养育”方式可能不利于孩子独立性的发展。父母的责任是帮助孩子变得独立,而不是解决他们所有的问题。青少年的心理健康问题确实有所增加,这可能是多种因素造成的,缺乏与自然的接触可能是其中一个因素。我们不应该追求100%的快乐,因为各种情绪都有其进化意义。幸福不仅是事情好转的信号,也是事情好转的原因。积极心理学研究表明,一些练习可以提高幸福感,例如列举三件好事。关注积极事物可以提升幸福感,因为人的注意力会影响感知。由于参考偏差的存在,难以比较不同文化中人们的毅力水平。一些国家更注重毅力,但可能缺乏对热情的重视,这不利于取得真正的成就。年龄与毅力呈正相关,但性别之间没有显著差异。我目前的研究方向是探索哪些客观环境因素能够促进个体的积极心理品质发展。我认为未来行为改变的重点在于社会性、教育性和体验性干预。 Nicolai Tangen: 我们节目的很多嘉宾都谈到了毅力的重要性,所以我们邀请了毅力领域的顶级专家Angela Duckworth来进行讨论。毅力对投资行业很重要,因为需要承受损失并继续承担风险。毅力是否可以培养?

Deep Dive

Chapters
Grit is defined as the combination of passion and perseverance for long-term goals. It's measured using the grit scale, a questionnaire that assesses these qualities. However, the grit scale has limitations, including being easily fakeable and subject to reference bias, making it unsuitable for hiring or admissions.
  • Grit combines passion and perseverance for long-term goals.
  • The grit scale questionnaire, while useful for research, is not suitable for hiring processes due to its susceptibility to faking.
  • Reference bias influences how people perceive their own grit levels based on their comparison groups.
