The governments are really concerned; university presidents are very concerned about the growing level of depression.
政府都非常擔憂. 大學校長們都非常擔憂 越來越多的抑郁現象
Anxiety and general mental disorder, rise of suicide rates in all of these countries that I mentioned. So we have a global epidemic here.
焦慮 精神紊亂 自殺率的上升 上面提到的所有國家都是如此 所以這是全球性流行病
And once again going back so: Is it the 21:1 ratio good? Is it important? Shouldn't it be increased? How can we even think about studying happiness.
我們再看看 21比1的比率是好事嗎? 它重要嗎?它不是應該擴大嗎? 我們怎么可以去研究幸福
And well-being and love and joy? Shouldn't we first deal with the real pressing problem of depression.
健康 愛和快樂? 我們不是應該首先處理 真正迫切的問題嗎? 比如抑郁
Anxiety, neurosis and so on? Some truth to that, but again what I'm going to argue for in this class.
焦慮 神經衰弱等等 這樣說確實有些道理 但是在這個課程里我要主張的是
Is that we do need to also, not only, not exclusively, not even necessarily primarily, we need to also focus on the positive.
我們也要. 不是專門 也不用主要 我們也要集中研究積極心理學
I am going to talk about three reasons why we should do that. The first reason is that it is important to focus on what works, because what works or what we focus on rather creates reality.
我要說三個為什么應該這樣做的理由 首先 集中研究有用的東西至關重要 因為有用的或者集中研究的會成為現實
If we focus on what is working, we'll have more working in our world, more working in ourselves, more working in our relationships.
如果我們集中研究起作用的 它就會在世界起更大的作用 在我們身上以及關系上起更大作用
The second reason why positive psychology as an independent field of study as a course in and of itself is important is that being happy.
其次 為什么積極心理學 作為一門獨立領域的研究學科 是重要的 這是因為快樂
Is not just the negation of happiness. It doesn't mean just get rid of depression or anxiety that I am experiencing.
并非只是對痛苦的否定 擺脫我正在經歷的 抑郁或者焦慮并不意味著
