Hello everyone. Welcome back to the 00:10
English Dialogue Podcast. I am Mike and 00:13
I'm Emma. Today we're diving into a 00:17
fascinating topic that blends psychology 00:20
and self-discovery. What is your mental 00:23
age? Personality test. That's right, 00:25
Emma. We all know our chronological age, 00:29
the number of years we've been on this 00:32
planet. But have you ever wondered about 00:34
your mental age? How mature or youthful 00:37
your mindset is compared to your actual 00:40
age? It's an intriguing concept, Mike. 00:42
Mental age refers to the age level at 00:46
which someone is functioning 00:49
intellectually and emotionally. It can 00:50
sometimes differ significantly from 00:53
one's chronological age. 00:55
Exactly. For instance, a 40-year-old 00:58
might have the mental age of someone 01:00
much younger or conversely someone much 01:02
older. It's all about how you think, 01:05
feel, and behave rather than the number 01:08
of candles on your birthday 01:10
cake. To start, let's explore where this 01:12
idea comes from. The concept of mental 01:15
age was first introduced by psychologist 01:18
Alfred Benet in the early 20th century 01:21
as part of his intelligence testing. 01:24
Right. Bined developed the mental age 01:27
concept to help identify children who 01:30
needed educational assistance. It was a 01:32
way to measure intellectual development 01:35
relative to their peers. Over time, the 01:37
idea expanded beyond intelligence 01:40
testing. Today, mental age encompasses 01:43
various aspects of personality and 01:46
emotional maturity, not just cognitive 01:48
abilities. 01:50
So, how is mental age assessed today? 01:52
Well, there are various personality 01:55
tests and psychological assessments 01:58
designed to gauge different facets of 02:00
your mental and emotional state. One 02:02
popular method is the use of 02:05
questionnaires that evaluate your 02:06
behavior, decision-m, and emotional 02:08
responses. These can help determine 02:11
whether your mental age aligns with your 02:13
chronological age or differs from it. 02:16
For example, someone who enjoys playful 02:19
activities, has a care-free attitude, 02:22
and is highly adaptable might have a 02:24
younger mental age. On the other hand, 02:27
someone who is highly responsible 02:30
prefers routine and is emotionally 02:32
resilient might have an older mental 02:34
age. It's important to note that having 02:37
a mental age different from your 02:40
chronological age isn't inherently good 02:41
or bad. It simply highlights the 02:44
diversity in how people develop and 02:47
interact with the world. 02:49
Absolutely. Let's consider some 02:51
scenarios. Imagine a 30-year-old who 02:54
loves video games, prefers casual social 02:56
interactions, and sometimes struggles 02:59
with long-term planning. They might 03:02
exhibit characteristics of a younger 03:04
mental age. Conversely, a 20-year-old 03:06
who takes on significant 03:10
responsibilities, handles stress well, 03:12
and engages in deep, meaningful 03:14
conversations might display traits of an 03:17
older mental age. These differences can 03:20
impact various aspects of life, 03:23
including relationships, career choices, 03:25
and personal growth. Understanding your 03:28
mental age can provide valuable insights 03:31
into your strengths and areas for 03:33
improvement. 03:35
Speaking of personal growth, knowing 03:36
your mental age can be a stepping stone 03:39
towards 03:41
self-improvement. It allows you to 03:42
identify behaviors or thought patterns 03:44
that you might want to develop further. 03:46
For instance, if someone discovers they 03:49
have a younger mental age, they might 03:52
work on building emotional resilience or 03:54
enhancing their decision-m skills to 03:56
better align with their goals. 03:59
On the flip side, if someone finds their 04:01
mental age is older than their 04:04
chronological age, they might explore 04:05
ways to embrace spontaneity or reduce 04:08
stress to achieve a healthier balance. 04:10
It's also worth mentioning that mental 04:14
age can fluctuate over time. Life 04:16
experiences, education, and personal 04:19
challenges can all influence how your 04:22
mental age evolves. 04:25
That's a great point, Mike. For example, 04:27
someone who has faced significant 04:30
adversity might develop a more mature 04:32
mindset as a result, while someone who 04:34
hasn't encountered certain challenges 04:37
might retain a more youthful 04:39
perspective. Now, let's talk about some 04:41
of the benefits of understanding your 04:43
mental age. One major advantage is 04:45
improved 04:48
self-awareness. Knowing where you stand 04:49
mentally can help you make more informed 04:51
decisions in various aspects of life. 04:54
Yes. And it can also enhance your 04:57
relationships. Understanding your own 05:00
mental age and that of others can foster 05:02
better communication and 05:05
empathy, leading to stronger 05:07
connections. Another benefit is 05:09
increased motivation for personal 05:11
development. Recognizing areas where 05:13
your mental age might be holding you 05:16
back can inspire you to take steps 05:18
towards growth and maturity. 05:20
Absolutely. It encourages a proactive 05:23
approach to 05:26
self-improvement, whether that's through 05:27
education, therapy, or simply adopting 05:29
new habits and perspectives. 05:32
Of course, there are also challenges. 05:34
One potential drawback is the risk of 05:37
labeling or stereotyping yourself or 05:39
others based on mental age. It's 05:42
important to approach this concept with 05:45
flexibility and understanding. 05:47
Definitely mental age is just one aspect 05:50
of a person's overall identity. It's 05:53
essential to consider the whole picture 05:56
including cultural, social, and 05:58
individual factors that contribute to 06:01
who we are. So, how can someone go about 06:03
discovering their mental age? There are 06:07
several steps you can take. First, 06:09
consider taking a reputable personality 06:12
test designed to assess mental and 06:14
emotional maturity. 06:17
Yes. And beyond formal tests, 06:19
self-reflection is key. Think about your 06:22
behaviors, how you handle stress, your 06:25
decision-making processes, and your 06:28
interactions with others. Keeping a 06:30
journal can be helpful in this regard. 06:32
By documenting your thoughts and 06:35
actions, you can gain insights into 06:36
patterns that indicate your mental aid. 06:39
Another approach is seeking feedback 06:42
from trusted friends or family members. 06:44
Sometimes those close to us can provide 06:47
valuable perspectives on our behavior 06:50
and maturity levels. Engaging in 06:52
conversations about personal growth and 06:55
mental health can also open up 06:57
opportunities for self-discovery and 06:59
understanding your mental age better. 07:01
It's also beneficial to set personal 07:04
goals based on your findings. Whether 07:06
you want to mature in certain areas or 07:09
maintain your youthful outlook, having 07:12
clear objectives can guide your journey. 07:14
Before we wrap up, let's touch on the 07:18
societal implications of mental age. How 07:20
does our culture view mental age and 07:23
what impact does that have on 07:25
individuals? In many societies, there's 07:27
a strong emphasis on chronological age 07:30
as a marker of maturity. This can 07:32
sometimes overlook the nuances of mental 07:35
and emotional development leading to 07:37
misconceptions and biases. 07:40
True. For example, younger individuals 07:43
might be underestimated in their 07:46
capabilities while older individuals 07:48
might be expected to conform to certain 07:50
stereotypes about maturity. Challenging 07:53
these stereotypes is important. 07:56
Recognizing that mental age varies 07:58
widely and doesn't always align with 08:00
chronological age can promote a more 08:03
inclusive and understanding society. 08:05
Absolutely. It encourages us to value 08:09
individuals based on their unique 08:11
strengths and experiences rather than 08:13
preconceived notions tied to their age. 08:16
And in the workplace, understanding 08:19
mental age can enhance team dynamics. 08:21
Leaders who recognize the diverse 08:25
maturity levels within their teams can 08:26
tailor their management approaches for 08:29
better collaboration and productivity. 08:31
That's a great insight, Emma. It 08:34
highlights the practical applications of 08:37
understanding mental age beyond personal 08:39
development. 08:41
So to sum up, while we didn't say it out 08:43
loud, our discussion today emphasizes 08:46
the importance of recognizing and 08:49
understanding mental age as a valuable 08:51
tool for personal and societal growth. 08:54
Indeed, Emma, embracing the concept of 08:58
mental age can lead to greater 09:01
self-awareness, improved relationships, 09:03
and a more compassionate society. 09:06
Thanks for tuning in today to explore 09:08
what is your mental age personality 09:10
test. We hope this conversation inspires 09:13
you to reflect on your own mental age 09:16
and consider how it shapes your life. 09:18

大家好,欢迎回到英语对话播客。我是迈克,
我是艾玛。今天我们要深入探讨一个
I'm Emma. Today we're diving into a
结合了心理学和自我发现的有趣话题。
你的心理年龄是多少?性格测试。
没错,艾玛。我们都知道自己的实际年龄,
也就是我们在这个星球上存在了多少年。
但你有没有想过你的心理年龄?
planet. But have you ever wondered about
你的思维方式与实际年龄相比,是更成熟还是更年轻?
这是一个引人入胜的概念,迈克。
age? It's an intriguing concept, Mike.
心理年龄指的是一个人在智力和情感方面
which someone is functioning
所处的发展水平。
它有时可能与一个人的实际年龄有很大差异。
one's chronological age.
没错。例如,一个40岁的人
可能拥有一个比自己年轻得多的人的心理年龄,
或者相反,拥有一个比自己年长得多的人的心理年龄。
这完全取决于你的思考方式、
感受和行为,而不是你生日蛋糕上的蜡烛数量。
of candles on your birthday
首先,让我们来了解一下这个想法的来源。
心理年龄的概念最早是由心理学家阿尔弗雷德·比奈
在20世纪初作为他智力测试的一部分提出的。
Alfred Benet in the early 20th century
没错。比奈发展了心理年龄的概念,
Right. Bined developed the mental age
以帮助识别需要教育帮助的孩子。
这是一种衡量智力发展相对于同龄人的方法。
way to measure intellectual development
随着时间的推移,这个想法超出了智力测试的范围。
今天,心理年龄涵盖了
人格和情感成熟度的各个方面,而不仅仅是认知能力。
various aspects of personality and
emotional maturity, not just cognitive
abilities.
那么,今天如何评估心理年龄呢?
有很多性格测试和心理评估
旨在评估你的心理和情感状态的不同方面。
designed to gauge different facets of
一种流行的做法是使用问卷调查,
popular method is the use of
评估你的行为、决策和情绪反应。
behavior, decision-m, and emotional
这些可以帮助确定你的心理年龄
是否与你的实际年龄一致,或者是否不同。
chronological age or differs from it.
例如,一个喜欢玩乐活动、
拥有无忧无虑的态度并且适应能力强的人
and is highly adaptable might have a
可能拥有一个更年轻的心理年龄。
另一方面,一个高度负责任、
喜欢规律并且情绪稳定的人
resilient might have an older mental
可能拥有一个更年长的心理年龄。
重要的是要注意,拥有一个与你的实际年龄
不同的心理年龄本身并不是一件好事或坏事。
or bad. It simply highlights the
它只是突出了人们发展和
与世界互动方式的多样性。
Absolutely. Let's consider some
当然。让我们考虑一些情景。
想象一个30岁的人喜欢玩电子游戏,
喜欢随意的社交互动,有时在长期规划方面遇到困难。
with long-term planning. They might
他们可能表现出更年轻心理年龄的特征。
相反,一个20岁的人承担着重要的
who takes on significant
责任,处理压力良好,
并进行深入、有意义的对话,
可能表现出更年长的心理年龄的特征。
这些差异会影响生活的各个方面,
包括人际关系、职业选择和个人成长。
including relationships, career choices,
了解你的心理年龄可以为你提供宝贵的见解,
了解你的优势和需要改进的领域。
into your strengths and areas for
improvement.
说到个人成长,了解你的心理年龄
可以成为自我提升的垫脚石。
它让你能够识别你可能想要进一步发展的
self-improvement. It allows you to
行为或思维模式。
that you might want to develop further.
例如,如果有人发现自己拥有一个更年轻的心理年龄,
have a younger mental age, they might
他们可能会努力培养情绪韧性或
提高他们的决策能力,以更好地实现他们的目标。
反之,如果有人发现他们的心理年龄
On the flip side, if someone finds their
比他们的实际年龄更大,
他们可能会探索拥抱自发性或减轻压力的方法,
ways to embrace spontaneity or reduce
以实现更健康平衡。
值得一提的是,心理年龄会随着时间而波动。
生活经历、教育和个人挑战
都会影响你的心理年龄如何发展。
challenges can all influence how your
mental age evolves.
迈克说得好。例如,
经历过重大逆境的人可能会因此发展出
更成熟的心态,而那些没有遇到某些挑战的人
mindset as a result, while someone who
可能会保持更年轻的视角。
might retain a more youthful
现在,让我们来谈谈了解你的心理年龄的一些好处。
of the benefits of understanding your
一个主要的优势是提高自我意识。
了解你在精神上所处的位置可以帮助你
self-awareness. Knowing where you stand
在生活的各个方面做出更明智的决定。
decisions in various aspects of life.
是的。它还可以改善你的人际关系。
了解自己和他人的心理年龄可以促进
更好的沟通和同理心,从而建立更牢固的
联系。另一个好处是
提高个人发展的动力。
connections. Another benefit is
认识到你的心理年龄可能阻碍你的地方,
可以激励你采取措施实现成长和成熟。
your mental age might be holding you
back can inspire you to take steps
towards growth and maturity.
绝对正确。它鼓励采取积极主动的
自我提升方法,
无论是通过教育、治疗,还是仅仅通过采纳
新的习惯和视角。
new habits and perspectives.
当然,也存在一些挑战。
一个潜在的缺点是冒着给自己或他人贴标签或刻板印象的风险,
基于心理年龄。重要的是以灵活性和理解的态度
others based on mental age. It's
来对待这个概念。
flexibility and understanding.
当然,心理年龄只是一个人整体身份的一个方面。
重要的是要考虑全局,包括文化、社会和
导致我们是谁的个体因素。
including cultural, social, and
individual factors that contribute to
那么,一个人如何发现自己的心理年龄呢?
你可以采取几个步骤。首先,
several steps you can take. First,
考虑进行一个信誉良好的性格测试,
旨在评估心理和情感成熟度。
emotional maturity.
是的。除了正式的测试之外,
自我反思是关键。思考你的行为,
你如何应对压力,你的决策过程,
以及你与他人的互动。
interactions with others. Keeping a
写日记在这方面会有所帮助。
通过记录你的想法和行动,
你可以深入了解表明你的心理年龄的模式。
patterns that indicate your mental aid.
另一种方法是向你信任的朋友或家人寻求反馈。
有时,那些亲近我们的人可以对我们的行为和
成熟度水平提供宝贵的见解。
参与关于个人成长和心理健康的对话
也可以为自我发现和更好地了解你的心理年龄
打开机会。
mental health can also open up
根据你的发现设定个人目标也很有益。
understanding your mental age better.
It's also beneficial to set personal
无论你希望在某些方面成熟,还是保持你年轻的视角,
明确的目标可以指导你的旅程。
maintain your youthful outlook, having
clear objectives can guide your journey.
在结束之前,让我们谈谈心理年龄的社会影响。
我们的文化如何看待心理年龄,
这对个人有什么影响?
what impact does that have on
在许多社会中,实际年龄被高度重视,
作为成熟的标志。这有时会忽略心理和
as a marker of maturity. This can
情感发展的细微差别,导致误解和偏见。
and emotional development leading to
没错。例如,年轻人
可能会被低估他们的能力,而年长者
可能会被期望符合某些关于成熟的刻板印象。
capabilities while older individuals
挑战这些刻板印象很重要。
认识到心理年龄差异很大,
并且并不总是与实际年龄一致,
可以促进一个更具包容性和理解力的社会。
widely and doesn't always align with
chronological age can promote a more
绝对正确。它鼓励我们根据个人的
Absolutely. It encourages us to value
独特优势和经验来重视他们,而不是
基于与年龄相关的先入之见。
在工作场所,了解心理年龄可以改善团队动态。
And in the workplace, understanding
认识到团队内部多样化的成熟度水平的领导者可以
调整他们的管理方法,以实现更好的协作和生产力。
maturity levels within their teams can
这是个很好的见解,艾玛。它
突出了理解心理年龄在个人发展之外的实际应用。
That's a great insight, Emma. It
highlights the practical applications of
understanding mental age beyond personal
development.
所以总而言之,虽然我们今天没有说出来,

作为个人和社会发展的重要工具。
