18、nnected them in rows, and by the end she designed the item into a skirt and wore it.She said that the idea behind her unique clothing item came out of a desire to normalize rejection and take pride in overcoming it. “The whole process of revisiting those old letters and making that skirt sort of rem

19、inded me that you have to apply to a lot of things to succeed,” she said. “A natural part of the process is to get rejected along the way.”Caitlins adviser, Julie Libarkin, a professor of earth and environmental science at Michigan State University, also encourages the acceptance of failure in her s

20、tudents. Libarkin believes its important for students to get into habit of applying for things, and to get used to the feeling of rejection, so she encourages them to chase after any opportunity that comes their way.

25、s we are told to share our toys and not be selfish. We also live in an age where discussing our feelings is encouraged. But when does it all become too much? With new fashion trending all the time, such as dance challenges and wearing a pillow as a dress, the question is: when can sharing become ove

26、rsharing on social media?What is oversharing? The term has become associated with social media, but it doesnt only belong to this platform. Imagine you head to a party and you meet someone. Within five minutes they have given away details about their personal life. While some of us may try to escape

27、 these people, according to marriage therapist Carolyn Cole, this form of oversharing could come from a strong desire to connect with someone. But how does this translate to social media?Dr. Christopher Hand, a lecturer in internet psychology, says the more details people disclose, the less sympathy

28、 we express when things go wrong. This could be due to a belief that we attract our own negative experiences the more we share them. It seems that sadfishing (博同情), the idea of searching for sympathy by oversharing, is generally viewed as negative rather than the cry for help it could actually be.Ho

29、wever, Dr Hands research also seems to suggest that the more positive posts we share on a platform, the more socially attractive we become. Even back in 2015, Gwendolyn Seidman PhD, said that we should avoid complaining and being negative online. We are supposed not to show off, as its now known- es

30、pecially about our love lives. It makes senseif your date is going that well, would you really have time to share a photo with text?So, how can you know if you are oversharing? Well, why not ask your friends in real life. They would probably be more than happy to tell you if your posts about your br

To advertise.D. To condemn.DPsychological science is full of interesting topics, many of which tell a c

34、oherent picture of human nature, but some of which create seemingly contradictory stories. A case in point is the tricky, and misunderstood, overlap between strength-based science and the research on narcissism (自恋).There is now convincing evidence to show that narcissism is on the rise, especially

35、in our youth. Some researchers have gone so far as to say that it is occurring in epidemic proportions, with about 25% of young people showing symptoms of narcissism. The inflated ego of Generation Me is reflected in reality TV, celebrity worship, out-of-control consumerism and materialismperhaps ev

36、en a new type of president.We are correct to be concerned about this phenomenon but our fear that all kids are potential narcissists has caused an unhelpful counter-reaction to approaches that seek to make our children and teens feel good about themselves.In my own research on strength-based parenti

37、ng it is common for people to wrongly label this approach as a recipe for narcissism. Their argument seems to be that a child who knows their strengths will automatically view themselves as better than everyone else. It is argued that the self-assurance that comes with identifying and using their po

38、sitive qualities will make a child arrogant, selfish and uncaring. Genuine confidence about ones strengths is categorized as over-confidence; desirable self-knowledge is branded as excessive self-admiration.Why does this occur? Its partly because more is known about narcissism than strengths. While

39、strengths psychology has largely stayed within the limit of academic journals or has been applied only within certain contexts such as the workplace, research on narcissism has made its way into the mass media and into our collective consciousness. The New York Times noted that narcissism is a favor

40、ed “go-to” topic and that people everywhere are diagnosing others with it.The fear that a strength-based approach will cause narcissism also occurs because we unknowingly fall prey to binary (非此即彼) thinking. We mistakenly believe that one cannot be both confident and humble. We focus on Donald Trump

41、 and Kim Kardashian rather than Mahatma Gandhi and Mother Teresa. Theres no way that Gandhi and Mother Teresa could have achieved what they did without confidence in their strengths, and yet they are both pillars of modesty and selflessness.When we assume that strength-focus is the same as a self-fo

42、cus, we fail to entertain the idea that people who know their strengths are, actually, more likely to be pro-social and focus on helping others.Its tempting to conclude that every young person is at risk of becoming a narcissist but Id like to stand up for the thousands of young kids I have worked w

43、ith who are caring, thoughtful and humbleeven when they use their strengths.32. Why teenagers strengths are often mistaken for narcissism?A.

47、earch, there are some convincing reasons to make the effort to look at something else other than a screen. Its bad for your health.
