39、he characters they have embodied, he writes.A recent finding doesnt involve acting, and it indicates that merely spending some time thinking about another person seemed to rub off on the volunteers5 sense of self led by Meghan Meyer at Princeton University. Across several studies, these researchers
40、asked volunteers to first rate their own personalities, memories or physical attributes, and then to perform the same task from the perspective of another person. For instance, they might score the emotionality of various personal memories, and then rate how a friend or relative would have experienc
41、ed those same events.After taking the perspective of another, the volunteers scored themselves once again: the consistent finding was that their self-knowledge was now changedtheir self-scores had shifted to become more similar to those theyd given for someone else. For instance, if they had initial
42、ly said the trait term confident was only moderately related to themselves and then rated the term as being strongly related to a friends personality, when they came to rescore themselves, they now tended to see themselves as more confident. Remarkably, this morphing of the self with another was sti

44、 discouraging, especially for anyone who has struggled to establish a firm sense of identity. Yet there is an optimistic message here, too. The challenge of improving ourselves一or at least seeing ourselves in a more positive lightmight be a little easier than we thought. By roleplaying or acting out
45、 the kind of person we would like to become, or merely by thinking about and spending time with people who embody the kind of attributes we would like to see in ourselves, we can find that our sense of self changes in desirable ways.“As each of us chooses who to befriend, who to model, and who to ig
