And of course, they felt good about it. Terrific.
當然 孩子們都感覺不錯
The second group did the exact same puzzle-succeeded; did well.
第二組做的是同一道題 做完了 做的不錯
And at the end of it, she said, wow. You put so much effort into it. You worked so hard.
結束后 她說:你真努力 你很認真
Again, randomly divided into these two groups. One-"smart and intelligent"; one-"effort, hard work".
這隨機分成的兩組孩子 一組是“聰明伶俐” 一組是“努力認真”
And she had a second part of the study. That second part: the participant had to choose between two puzzles.
然后她開始第二部分的研究 第二部分:兩組孩子要選兩道題
One puzzle they were told was relatively easy-The other one was extremely hard, but they could really learn a lot from it.
他們被告知其中一道很簡單 另一道非常之困難但是他們能夠從中學到許多

From the group that was told that they were smart or smart and intelligent,
那組被稱贊聰明伶俐的孩子里
50 percent chose the easy one; 50 percent chose the hard one where they could learn a lot.
五成孩子選了簡單的題目、五成孩子選擇了可以學到很多的難題
From the group that was told that they were hard-working, that they put in a lot of effort,
那組被稱贊努力認真的孩子里
90 percent chose the hard one, the one that they could learn from.
九成孩子選擇了他們能學到很多的難題
This was the part two of the study. Part three. She brought them in again, and this time had them take,
這就是研究的第二部分 第三部分這次她讓孩子們
or do a puzzle which was very difficult, which was essentially unsolvable.
做一道非常難的題 這題基本上是無法解答的
And she wanted to see the reaction of the two groups.
她想看看兩組孩子的反應
The group that was told how smart they were, how intelligent they were, that group didn't persist much
被告知他們很聰明很伶俐的那一組他們沒有堅持多久、
and experienced a lot of frustration and would give up very quickly on that puzzle.
并且非常沮喪、并且很快就開始放棄了
In contrast, the group that was told earlier that they worked hard and that they put in a lot of effort,
與此相反 被告知努力認真的那一組孩子
persisted much more and actually enjoyed the process, even though they didn't end up solving the puzzle.
他們更能堅持并且享受解題的過程 即使到最后他們都沒能解開這道題
