  無暇靜思立論，且拾前人牙慧。


  這幾年來，神經科學突飛猛進。有研究顯示，腦中負責掌管情緒控制的

部分，其實在十八歲以後還在繼續成長。可以說要到二十五歲，才算是腦部成長

的大略終點。就此而言，大學的學生其實還未真正成熟。




的成熟」與「青澀而健康地成長」，描述地非常好。在此譯出，以饗諸位。



------------------------大師說----------------------



而不僅限於浪漫的愛情關係；尚未整理出自己的價值體系；尚未有足夠的人生經驗

(如真正對人負責、悲劇、失敗與成功)來褪去完美主義的幻想，以將心態轉為實際；

他們多數尚未能平靜面對死亡；尚未習得如何能有耐心；尚未對自己及他人心中的



不以公開展現道德為恥。







(但卻對此頗為害羞)、且私下對於值得如此的長者心懷敬愛。年輕的人還不太相信自己、




兇惡及暴民心態感到不適。




原文：



    I have removed one source of confusion by confining the concept
very definitely to older people. By the criteria I used, self-actualization
does not occur in young people. In our culture at least, youngsters have
not yet achieved identity, or autonomy, nor have they had time enough
to experience an enduring, loyal, post-romantic love relationship, nor
have they worked our their own system of values; nor have they had
experience enough (responsibility for others, tragedy, failure, achievement,
success) to shed perfectionistic illusions and become realistic; nor have
they generally made their peace with death; nor have they learned how
to be patient, nor have they learned enough about evil in themselves and
others to be compassionate; nor have they had time to become post-ambivalent
about parents and elders, power and authority; nor have they generally become
knowledgeable and educated enough to open the possibility of becoming
wise; nor have they generally acquired enough courage to be unpopular,
to be unashamed about being openly virtuous, etc.

 In any case, it is better psychological strategy to separate the concept
of mature, fully-human, self-actualizing people in whom the human
potentialities have been realized and actualized from the concept of
health at any age level. This translates itself, I have found, into
"good-growth-toward-self-actualization," a quite meaningful and
researchable concept. I have done enough exploration with college
age youngsters to have satisfied myself that it is possible to
differentiate "healthy" from "unhealthy." It is my impression that
healthy young men and women tend to be still growing, likeable,
and even lovable, free of malice, secretly kind and altruistic (but very
shy about it), privately affectionate of those of their elders who deserve
it. Young people are unsure of themselves, not yet formed, uneasy
because of their minority position with their peers (their private opinions
and tastes are more square, metamotivated, i.e., virtuous, than average).
They are secretly uneasy about the cruelty, meanness, and mob spirit so
often found in young people, etc.
