Now, already you may be saying of yourself, I'm not intriguing 1. 也许你们会评价自己，“我不是个有趣的人。
I am the 46th most boring person in the Western Hemisphere. 我在西半球最无趣排行榜上排第46名。
Or you may say of yourself, "I am intriguing, even if I am regarded by most people as a great, thundering twit." 也许你会评价自己，“我是个有趣的人，尽管大部分人都觉得我是个傻瓜。”
But it is your self-diagnosed boringness and your inherent "twitiness" 但正是你们这种自我认知的无聊，或者内在的“傻”，
that makes me, as a psychologist, really fascinated by you. So let me explain why this is so. 让我这个心理学家觉得非常有趣。我来解释一下为什么。
One of the most influential 2 approaches in personality science is known as trait psychology 3, 人格心理学中最有影响力的方法叫做特质理论，
and it aligns 4 you along five dimensions which are normally distributed, 它用5个正态分布的维度判定你，
and that describe universally held aspects of difference between people. 这5个维度描述了被广泛认同的人与人之间不同的5个方面。
They spell out the acronym 5 OCEAN. 这5个方面的首字母缩写是OCEAN。
So, "O" stands for "open to experience," versus 6 those who are more closed. “O”代表“开放性”，与之对立的是，那些不愿冒险的人。
"C" stands for "conscientiousness," in contrast to those with a more lackadaisical 7 approach to life. “C”代表的是“责任感”，与之相反的是，那些懒散随意的人。
"E" -- "extroversion," in contrast to more introverted people. “E”指的是“外向性”，与之相对的是内向的人。
"A" -- "agreeable individuals," in contrast to those decidedly not agreeable. “A”——“宜人性”，与之相对的是，不那么和善的人。
And "N" -- "neurotic 8 individuals," in contrast to those who are more stable. 最后是“N”—— “神经质”，与之相对的是那些，更加稳定平和的人。
All of these dimensions have implications for our well-being 9, for how our life goes. 这5个方面影响我们的健康，影响我们的人生走向。
