双语:美国盘问拜访:如今年夜门生更加自恋
College students are more narcissistic than their predecessors . Today's college students are more narcissistic and self-centered than their predecessors, according to a comprehensive new study by five psychologists who worry that the trend could be harmful to personal relationships and American society.
"We need to stop endlessly repeating 'You're special' and having children repeat that back," said the study's lead author, Professor Jean Twenge of San Diego State University . "Kids are self-centered enough already." Twenge and her colleagues examined the responses of 16,475 college students nationwide who completed an evaluation called the Narcissistic Personality Inventory test. The standardized inventory , known as the NPI, asks for responses to such statements as "If I ruled the world, it would be a better place," "I think I am a special person" and "I can live my life any way I want to." The researchers describe their study as the largest ever of its type and say students' NPI scores have risen steadily since the current test was introduced in 1982. By 2006, they said, two-thirds of the students had above-average scores, 30 percent more than in 1982. Narcissism can have benefits, said study co-author W. Keith Campbell of the University of Georgia , suggesting it could be useful in meeting new people "or auditioning on 'American Idol.'" "Unfortunately, narcissism can also have very negative consequences for society, including the breakdown of close relationships with others," he said. The study asserts that narcissists "are more likely to have romantic relationships that are short-lived, at risk for infidelity, lack emotional warmth, and to exhibit game-playing, dishonesty, and over-controlling and violent behaviors."中文链接:美国五位心理学家所做的一项最新综合钻研表明,现在的年夜门生比过往的年夜门生更加自恋、自我为中央的思惟较重要。心理学家担心,这一趋势会对人际干系和美国社会发作不良影响。
钻研陈说的重要撰写人、圣地亚哥州立年夜学的琼·特温吉说:“我们不能老是对孩子们说‘你很分外’之类的话,这会让他们自我感受太好,现在的孩子自我为中央的思惟已经很重要了。”
特温吉和其他几位同事对来自全国各地的共 16475名年夜门生举行了一项名为“自恋人格盘问拜访”的测试,并对他们所做的回答举行了探讨。
这项尺度化测试( NPI)让盘问拜访工具对如“如果我能统治世界,我会让世界变得更好”、“我以为自己很分外”及“我可以选择自己喜好的任何糊口体例”等说法做出回应。钻研人员称此项钻研为迄今为止同类钻研中范围最年夜的一次。从 1982年“自恋人格盘问拜访”测试引进以来,接受测试门生的 NPI得分不断是稳步低落。据钻研人员介绍,停止 2006年,三分之二门生的得分跨越匀称分,比 1982年多 30百分。
钻研陈说撰写人之一、乔治亚年夜学的 W·凯斯·坎贝尔说,自恋也有一些利益,好比在结识新冤家或“加入‘美国偶像’试镜”时能起到一定感化。
“但不幸的是,自恋也会对社会发作一些非常悲不雅观的影响,其中包括招致和他人干系的分裂等。”
此项钻研指出,自恋的人“更随便与他人发作长久的恋爱,对爱人不贞、缺乏温情,别的,他们还比较贪玩、不诚实、控制欲强,另有暴力偏向。”
