Young people prioritize boosting their self-esteem over sex and money, according to a new study, Reuters reported. 路透社报道,一项新的研究表明,年轻人对于自我肯定的渴望比性和钱更加强烈。 
Researchers from Ohio State University and Brookhaven National Laboratory found that college students rated receiving compliments, or doing well on a test, above activities such as sex, receiving a paycheck, seeing a friend, or eating their favorite food. 俄亥俄州立大学和布鲁克海文国家实验室的研究人员发现,大学生把得到表扬或在考试中取得好成绩看得比一些娱乐活动更加重要,比方说:做爱、得到一笔钱、见朋友以及吃最喜欢的食物。
Brad Bushman, a professor of communication and psychology at Ohio State University, said the findings suggest that many young people may be little too focused on raising their self-esteem. "I think that people are looking for a quick fix to complex problems," he explained. "We see it as a cure-all to every social ill, from teen pregnancy to violence. People think that if only we feel better about ourselves, these things would not happen."

俄亥俄州立大学传播和心理学教授布莱德•波西曼说,这一发现表明许多年轻人可能太在意提高对自我的肯定。他说:“我认为他们是在寻找一种快速解决复杂问题的方法,从而可以处理诸如青少年怀孕乃至暴力等的所有社会问题。人们认为只要我们自我感觉良好,这些问题就不会发生。”
