@Adriana Galván : 我研究青少年大脑25年,发现他们拥有成年人可以学习的三种特质:首先,他们不回避不确定性,反而从中获得乐趣和学习机会。这得益于他们大脑在面对新鲜事物时释放更多多巴胺,这是一种激励他们拥抱不确定性的化学物质。其次,他们擅长挑战现状,勇于打破常规,追求可能性。这与他们大脑对不确定性的积极反应有关,他们更关注改变的可能性,而非潜在的风险。最后,他们并非盲目冒险,而是策略性的风险承担者。研究表明,他们的脑部活动显示出他们能够权衡风险和回报,评估潜在的积极和消极后果。总而言之,青少年时期的大脑发育是为了帮助他们更好地适应成年生活,而这种积极拥抱不确定性、挑战现状和策略性冒险的精神,值得成年人学习和借鉴。 @Madhupa Akinnola : Adriana Galván 的演讲让我意识到,青少年思维模式并非仅限于青春期,而是一种持续的状态。成年人也可以在需要大胆、创新和勇于冒险时,借鉴这种思维模式。青少年时期最大的魅力在于对自我认知的不确定性,这使得他们能够更开放地尝试和探索未知领域,而这种拥抱不确定性的精神,既令人兴奋,也充满挑战。我们应该学习青少年这种积极进取的精神,在生活中勇于尝试,勇于冒险。

  • Teenagers' brains are highly adaptable to learning and change.
  • Dopamine plays a crucial role in teenagers' willingness to embrace uncertainty and pursue rewards.
  • The adolescent brain is designed to handle uncertainty and novelty.
