【科技新知】 Am I good enough? 你有“冒充者综合征”吗？ Don’t doubt yourself! Have you ever doubted your abilities or believed that you don’t deserve your success? Then you may have impostor syndrome (冒充者综合征 ). Researchers from Germany have recently found that this syndrome can happen to people regardless of age, gender or intelligence. What is impostor syndrome? Although it’s often called a “syndrome”, impostor syndrome is not an actual disease (疾病 ) – it’s a negative (负面的 ) way of thinking. People who have experienced impostor syndrome might have thoughts like “I’m a failure” or “I have to work harder than everyone else”. They might also feel that their achievements don’t deserve any praise (赞赏 ). They believe any of their success is because of luck rather than their skills or hard work. Impostor syndrome affects many people around the world, from teens to adults. It might surprise you that many successful people experience this as well. How can impostor syndrome be overcome? It’s important to remember that this feeling is very normal. One tip is to stop comparing yourself to others. Quite often, you don’t see the full picture of another person’s success. British physicist Anthony Leggett, who won a Nobel Prize in 2003, said: “I missed out on standard high school physics, so I have always been a bit confused about simple things like why the noise from a kettle stops as the water nears boiling.” It’s impossible for everyone to be good at everything. Next time you doubt your abilities, remember that it’s perfectly normal and you can work to overcome those feelings. Questions： 1. Which of the following may be thought of as impostor syndrome? A.
