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 did Professor O’Keefe find in his earlier studies?
选项
A、People’s interests tend to change with age.
B、People’s interests determine their mindsets.
C、People are divided about the nature of interest.
D、People of different ages have different mindsets.
答案
C
解析
细节辨认题。定位句提到,奥基夫教授在早期的研究中证实,人们对兴趣的本质持有不同的看法,即存在分歧。C)中的divided对应原文中的different,故为答案。文章第二段第二句提到那些具有兴趣增长型思维的人倾向于认为兴趣是可以发展和培养的,并不是说兴趣会随年龄而改变,故排除A);B)“人们的兴趣决定他们的思维方式”和D)“不同年龄的人有不同的思维方式”均未在文中提及,故排除。
