From climate change to the ongoing pandemic (大流行病) and beyond, the issues facing today’s world are increasingly complex and dynamic. Yet solving problems like these requires new approaches that extend beyond traditional ways of thinking. A study led by Yale Professor of Psychology, Paul O’Keefe, found that having a growth mindset (思维倾向) of interest may spark this type of innovation.
Professor O’Keefe established in earlier studies that people hold different beliefs about the nature of interest. Those with a growth mindset of interest tend to believe that interests can be developed and cultivated, while those with a fixed mindset of interest tend to believe that interests are inherent (与生俱有的) and simply need to be ’found. ’ Building on these findings, the latest research examined how a growth mindset of interest can boost integrative thinking across the traditional disciplinary boundaries of arts and sciences.
For example, in one task, research participants were instructed to create new college majors by combining two or more existing academic Arts or Science programs at their university. After coding and analyzing the ideas they generated, the team found that people with a growth mindset of interest were more likely to bridge programs across the arts and sciences to create new majors like computational economics rather than creating majors that drew from only one of those areas, like computational chemistry.
As Professor O’Keefe pointed out, "This research provides a useful direction for organizations whose products and services call for integrated and creative solutions. Take smartphones for example. You need not only computer science and engineering knowledge, but also an understanding of psychology and visual design to create a better product. Employees with a growth mindset may be more likely to devise innovative ideas that bridge multiple areas of knowledge to achieve better solutions."
The benefits of a growth mindset of interest may also extend to those seeking employment. This is a pressing issue because many people are becoming unemployed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Having a growth mindset of interest can help job seekers expand their interests and become more adaptable to different fields, and take the initiative to learn new skills.
What does the author want to illustrate with the example of smartphones?
选项
A、Hi-tech products are needed in interdisciplinary research.
B、Improved technology gives birth to highly popular products.
C、Making innovative products needs multidisciplinary knowledge.
D、Hi-tech products can boost people’s integrative thinking.
答案
C
解析
推理判断题。定位句提到以智能手机为例,而举例子的目的可在下文找到。该段后两句提到,你不仅需要计算机科学和工程知识,还需要对心理学和视觉设计有所理解,才能创造出更好的产品。而具有成长型思维的员工更可能谋划出跨越多个知识领域的创新想法,以实现更好的解决方案。由此可见,制造创新性产品需要具备多学科知识,故答案为C)。A)“跨学科研究中需要高科技产品”和B)“技术改进会产生受欢迎的产品”在文章中并未提及,故排除;结合第四段内容,可推断出是人的综合性思维会促进一些高科技产品的诞生,因此可排除D)。
