Teenagers are often portrayed as thrill-seekers, but research suggests their brains are wired to learn from their experiences, which makes them better prepared for adulthood. 青少年通常被认为喜欢寻求刺激,不过有研究发现,他们的大脑善于从经验中学习,为他们走上社会作更好的准备。 In a small study, they performed better than adults at a picture-based game and brain scans showed a higher level of brain activity. 在一项小研究中,他们在一个看图游戏中比成年人表现的更好,脑部扫描数据显示大脑活动水平更高。 The research team, from Harvard, Columbia and California universities, set out to test whether adolescents' typical reward-seeking behaviour could also make them better at learning from good or bad outcomes. 来自哈佛大学、哥伦比亚大学和加利福尼亚大学的研究团队决定通过测试以验证,是否青少年典型的寻求奖赏的行为,会在他们从好或坏的结果中学习时更有帮助。 |
