你的情商怎样？

莫利瑟·阿布拉莫维茨


什么是情商？

1
情感智力涉及情感的觉知与领悟，

与其他智能无关，除此之外，与大脑智力相似。情
感商数，即情商
,
是测量个人了解自己的情绪、驾驭情感的能力和人际交往能力的参量。

2
尽管与情智和情商相关的许多概念最初用于商业和领导才能
,
可是它们与日常生活和
健康也息息相关。情智和情商不仅影响着自己与他人相处，选择明智的生活方式，在学业、
运动 、事业等各领域能否获得成功的能力，而且还影响身心健康等多方面发展。

3
专家指出
,
培养情感智力可以帮助你避免短期伤害的风险，
避免患诸如心脏 病、
肝病和
某些癌症之类的慢性病。
这些危险往往是某种物质的滥用，
以及一 些致使人处于极度紧张情
绪的有害生活方式所致。
冉·沃兰德博士说：
“我们的情感思 维以及与他人相处的方式对我
们的生理、健康和患病肯定产生影响。”


情智因素

4
著名的心理学家丹尼尔·戈尔曼博士对情智这一概念做了 详尽的描述，
他把情智概括为
五个基本要素：自我意识、情绪调节、自我激励、感情移入和社交 技能。戈尔曼和其他专家
指出，
这些因素并非是与生俱来的，
而是人在一生中学会和完 善的。因此，
许多学校和企业
开展情智方面的训练，
帮助学生和职员学习、
掌 握这五个要素，
从而有效地迎接稳定日常情
绪的挑战。

5
自我意 识是认知、
识别自身感受的能力。
情智专家强调，
学会感知愤怒或与情爱之类的
情感对于举止得体是极为重要的。
例如，
恃强凌弱者通常认识不到他们对他人的攻击行为是< br>由于缺乏安全感和愉悦感所致。增强自我意识的方法之一，就是表达情绪，而非忽略情绪。
如果你 感到愤怒，就对自己说“我生气”，然后解释原因。如果你觉得害怕，至少要向你自
己承认。只有传说中 的超级英雄，才能试图使自己始终看上去坚不可摧、战无不胜，因为他
们不必像常人那样忍受情绪，
6
情绪调节是指用富有成效和恰当的方式巧妙巧处理各种感受。
譬如，如果你的知己突然
告诉你，
她有了新的知己，
你可能会感到很难受、
气氛 、
嫉妒。
假如你不能明智地调节情绪，
你就可能会做出令你日后后悔不已的事情。但是，
所谓有效地调节你的情绪，
你可以做深呼
吸，数到
10
， 克制自己不去斥责她，并鼓足勇气说“你做出这样的选择，我很遗憾，。我
珍惜我们的友谊，希望什么时 候能好好谈一下。”

7
自我激励是建立在情绪调节，延迟满足一时的冲动，并 保持积极的心态的基础之上的。
研究表明，能克制自己欲望的人更乐观，而且，他们在学业、运动、事业 和人际关系各方面
更易获得成功。
其中部分归因于自我克制，
自我克制是一个人面对挑 战如何做出反应的重要
指标。

假如，你数学考试不及格，你便说“我永远考不过，我不去上课了。”那么，你在
