CBS News: People with negative attitudes may not be the most popular folks at the office, but they may have an unexpected 1 advantage when it comes to developing expertise 2 at work.
Researchers made the discovery by dividing people into two groups to study: "likers," or people found to have positive dispositional attitudes in a personality test, and "haters," or those with negative dispositional attitudes.
Then they studied how each group spent its time. In one study, participants recorded all the activities they did in a week, and in another study, participants used a free response time survey.
1 unexpected
adj.想不到的,意外的
- I always keep some good wine in for unexpected guests.我总保存些好酒,用来招待不速之客。
