Adam Grant: 我对内在独白感到好奇,特别是那些无法控制的想法和声音。我的阅读方式与大多数人不同,我不需要在脑中听到文字的声音。 我很好奇为什么有些人会在阅读时听到文字的声音,以及如何解释这种差异。我也对情绪调节感兴趣,特别是那些被认为是无法控制的情绪。 我发现,当我对即将到来的演讲感到焦虑时,我会通过思考可能出错的事情并制定应对计划来处理这种焦虑。这是一种基于逻辑和推理的应对方式,而不是基于情绪的反应。 Ethan Kross: 内在独白是一种多功能工具,有些人会利用它进行自我对话,有些人则不会。 阅读时听到文字的声音是一种常见的现象,称为"默读"。有些人会直接理解文字的含义,而有些人则需要在脑中发出声音。这两种方式都可以帮助我们理解文字。 情绪调节的关键在于区分我们无法控制的情绪和我们可以控制的行为。我们可以控制如何应对情绪,例如通过重新诠释、转移注意力或寻求支持。 发泄情绪并不总是有效的,有时反而会加剧情绪。避免情绪也不总是消极的,在某些情况下,暂时避免处理情绪可以帮助我们以更有效的方式应对。 有效的应对策略因人而异。一些有用的策略包括自我对话、听音乐、以及寻求他人的支持。
