Popular: Why Being Liked is the Secret to Greater Success and Happiness

為了解決mean h words的問題，作者Mitch Prinstein 這樣論述：

「好人氣」的科學 為何有人總是到處受歡迎？ 　　你最後一次檢查自己的FB或者IG貼文有幾個讚，是什麼時候？為什麼我們對於被unfriend或著unfollow會感到受傷？今日的政治人物為何會如此在意民調結果或是社群媒體的反應？當面對群眾發表演說的時候，為何腦袋裡總有很多小聲音嗡嗡不止的對著自己叨唸？ 　　我們生活在一個極度注重「人氣」的世代，不僅是在實際生活中，甚至更逐漸轉向在虛擬的平台世界裡。而不僅是網路帶來的影響，個人青少年時期的人際關係與經歷，也深刻地影響一個人成年後的生活，從人際、成就甚至健康。 　　然而，也不用過度迷信年輕時代的受歡迎程度，因為事實是更為複雜的。本書探討兩種截

然不同的人氣來源，其一是來自於地位與優勢，另一個是相較簡單的個人喜好與特質。然而，只有其中一種人氣會帶我們前往更好的未來。 　　根據20年的深耕研究，人氣學專家、臨床心理學博士Mitch Prinstein與讀者分享關於人氣的科學。分析為何人們如此看重它（即使不認為自己在意）、什麼樣的人氣是值得注重的，以及我們能否自我培養年輕時所欠缺的人氣。作者還為父母親們提供了重要的見解：支持並陪伴孩子培養正確的人氣，將能塑造他們成為積極、正向的大人。在深受網路平台影響的當代，無論大人小孩，本書都能解除你對於「人氣」的迷思。(文/博客來編譯) 　　When did you last count how

many followers you have on Instagram or Twitter? Have you noticed how obsessed politicians are with opinion polls? How many ‘likes’ did that post get you thought was so funny? What’s happening with that friend who keeps cancelling on you last minute? What does that little voice in your head say to y

ou when you present to a room full of people? And are you aware just how much your behaviour today is driven by your experiences of popularity as a teenager? 　　We live in an era that is completely obsessed with popularity, both in the real and, increasingly, in the virtual world where hard data fro

m our social media channels show us just how popular and visible we really are. Parents and teachers are becoming increasingly concerned about the high anxiety (especially amongst young girls) surrounding young people and their insatiable appetite for acceptance online – all at the expense of school

work, real friends and healthy self-esteem. 　　Popular examines why popularity plays such a key role in our development and, ultimately, how it still influences our happiness and success today. In many ways—some even beyond our conscious awareness—those old dynamics of our youth continue to play ou

t in every business meeting, every social gathering, in our personal relationships, and even how we raise our children. Our popularity even affects our DNA, our health, and our mortality in fascinating ways we never previously realized. More than childhood intelligence, family background, or prior p

sychological issues, research indicates that it’s how popular we were in our early years that predicts how successful and how happy we grow up to be. 　　But it’s not always the conventionally popular people who fare the best, for the simple reason that there is more than one type of popularity—and m

any of us still long for the wrong one. As children, we strive to be likable, which can offer real benefits not only on the playground but throughout our lives. In adolescence, though, a new form of popularity emerges, and we suddenly begin to care about status, power, influence, and notoriety—resea

rch indicates that this type of popularity hurts us more than we realize. 　　Realistically, we can’t ignore our natural human social impulses to be included and well-regarded by others, but we can learn how to manage those impulses in beneficial and gratifying ways. Popular relies on the latest rese

arch in psychology and neuroscience to help us make the wisest choices for ourselves and for our children, so we may all pursue more meaningful, satisfying, and rewarding relationships. 　　Review 　　“If painful memories of what cafeteria table we ate lunch at can potentially stick with us well into

adulthood, what does that say about our culture’s relationship to this thing called ‘popularity’? That’s the question all over the syllabus of Mitch Prinstein’s first book, Popular, a study of how we, all the way down to our DNA, want to be viewed positively by our peers but how we go about it—throu

gh being liked, needed, amusing or feared—affects our own health and happiness and that of the society we model from it.”—Kevin Smokler, Slate 　　“In this fascinating scientific study, Prinstein argues that popularity in the early years is more predictive of adult success and happiness than natural

intelligence or family background. The hitch is that there are two kinds of popularity. Those who pursue popularity based on status rather than likeability, argues Prinstein, end up unhappy. Those who are actually likeable—who work well with others, and are kind and generous—enjoy the most success.

Prinstein argues that as society becomes increasingly fixated on fame, power and wealth, it is important to understand the dynamics of how they are achieved—and how they aren’t.”—The National Book Review 　　“Like ‘homecoming’ and ‘curfew’, ‘popular’ is one of those words we tend to associate with hi

gh school; and understandably so, since that’s the era of our lives when social status can be a daily crushing concern. But even in the thick of those angsty teenage years, you probably sensed that there was much more to the whole popularity thing than just prom court and class geeks. Like all socia

l dynamics, it's complicated. Just how complicated is terrain tackled in a new book on the subject. Popular digs into the data and research around what designates popularity, and why it’s so definitional—not just in our early lives, but through adulthood.”—Elizabeth Kiefer, Refinery 29 　　“You might

associate being popular at the office with fake smiling, sucking up to bosses, and playing Machiavellian office politics. Those tactics may actually boost one kind of popularity — your status—but will likely hurt the other kind: your likability. . . . There are years' [worth] of research that prove

s that people who are popular when it comes to social preference are more successful, but you can easily think of examples from your own life and popular culture. ‘I mean, it’s amazing how much we give the benefit of the doubt to likable people, and how much we are willing to do for them and how muc

h we just naturally think good things about them,’ Prinstein said.”—Business Insider 　　“Prinstein aims to understand popularity; to reconsider our society’s obsession with status; and to show how our desire for social approval can influence our choices. . . . Prinstein concludes by talking about th

e role of parents in trying to help their children become popular. . . . This highly readable study, which successfully blends science and anecdotes, is strongly recommended for public libraries.”—Library Journal (starred review) 　　“An intriguing treatise on how popularity works. . . . Prinstein ob

serves that the course of one’s popularity through life is firmly established way back in first grade. However, he notes repeatedly, there are two kinds of popularity: one is an indicator of status and thus highly variable, while the other is likability. . . . an eye-opening look at the ways of the

world.”—Kirkus Reviews 　　“It turns out that there’s more to popularity than status. This book didn’t just capture my attention; it also helped me understand why I wasn’t cool as a kid, why I’m still not today, and why I shouldn’t care.”—Adam Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Originals and

Give and Take 　　“Fascinating, well-researched, and accessible, Popular will make you rethink every social interaction you’ve had since high school, and help you find greater success and happiness. Read this book, and you’ll never think about popularity the same way again.”—Susan Cain, New York Tim

es bestselling author of Quiet 　　“Is popularity overrated? Maybe not—especially if it’s the right kind of popularity that we seek. In Mitch Prinstein’s fascinating book, you’ll learn all about the benefits and pitfalls of being popular and how to make popularity work for you in business and in life

.”—Daniel H. Pink, New York Times bestselling author of To Sell Is Human and Drive 　　“Popular will show you how to build strong emotional appeal that enables you to stand out from the crowd and wildly succeed.  More than ever, this book’s advice is important to parents, future leaders and go-getter

s everywhere.”—Tim Sanders, New York Times bestselling author of The Likeability Factor and Love Is the Killer App: How To Win Business and Influence Friends 　　“Popular deserves to be! A delightful and insightful analysis of the longing that makes us human.”—Daniel Gilbert, New York Times bestselli

ng author of Stumbling on Happiness 　　“Were you popular as a kid? You no doubt have an answer to that, but Mitch Prinstein wants you to have two: Status is one thing, and likability quite another. The origins of both types of popularity are the topic of this singularly fascinating, extraordinarily

well-written book. I read it cover to cover and learned as much about the science as I did about myself.”—Angela Duckworth, New York Times bestselling author of Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance 　　“We have all imprinted emotionally on the vicissitudes of our teenage years.  Mitch Prinstei

n, in this compelling, page-turner, tells us why and also how we can shed the skins of our adolescence. Even better he tells us how our children can achieve meaningful popularity. A science-based Dale Carnegie.”—Martin E. P. Seligman, New York Times bestselling author of Authentic Happiness and Lear

ned Optimism 　　“Who does not want to be more popular? When is that quest not in our best interest? Read Mitch Prinstein’s fascinating new book Popular to discover new views on this vitally important topic. Popular offers a brilliant take on a largely misunderstood subject, shedding light on the typ

e of popularity we crave versus the type that will improve our lives. Based on provocative psychological research, Popular will change how you think about your adolescence, your current relationships today, and ultimately help you become more truly happy in the future.”—Phil Zimbardo, New York Times

bestselling author of The Lucifer Effect 　　“People seek happiness in all aspects of their lives and the quest to be popular is among the most common pursuits. We seek status and gratification from the crowd we run with, the stuff we buy, the street where we live, and the size of our bank account.

Mitch Prinstein’s Popular is a perceptive and inspiring examination of how these aims pale in comparison to the power of genuine, lasting social relationships.”—Sonja Lyubomirsky, professor, University of California, Riverside and author of The How of Happiness 　　“It is hard to imagine a more impor

tant book for the popularity-obsessed times in which we are living. Few scientists understand popularity better than Mitch Prinstein, and no one has ever done a better job of explaining its nature, origins, and significance.”—Laurence Steinberg, author of Age of Opportunity and You and Your Adolesce

Amazing Amusing Emus: Yesterday’s Dinosaurs on Today’s Farm

為了解決mean h words的問題，作者Thwing, Elizabeth 這樣論述：

Emus, the second largest birds in the world, can't fly, and maybe that's a good thing (Can you imagine the five-to-six foot creatures over your head?) One part of the problem stems from their weird feathers. But there's much more Read why these birds are stuck on the ground, and see the skills nat

ure's provided to compensate for this glitch in their development. Mild mannered emus enjoy interacting with people, and if you're hanging out nearby, a bird might do its best to get you to join in its game of "tag" or horsing around. Emus are curious beyond words. They edge closer to the action, st

udy you with their beady eyes and probe objects with their beaks, trying to understand what you're up to. Learn why Stanley, a Massachusetts farmer, raises the odd birds and loves this form of agriculture. He understands why his clever emus behave as they do in captivity, and he's learned techniques

for outfoxing them and their tricks. He guides the reader through the fun and the science of emus. See how the female emu rules her roost-or does she? How does an unborn chick breathe? Learn what pipping, booming and grunting mean. And follow Stan's experiment that determines if his farm-raised bir

三篇有關博弈之機率、隨機過程與數學之論文集

為了解決mean h words的問題，作者許汶任 這樣論述：

本論文集為賭場(casino)經營及優勢玩家(advantage players, APs)的一系列研究，第一篇探討優勢玩家(之後簡稱APs)如何透過賭場提供的優惠合約獲利，研究採用模擬搭配實際賭場優惠合約內容，並提出賭場經營困境及解套方法；第二篇回顧了繼菲律賓賭場在提供的優惠合約導致巨額損失之後，透過國際比較，指出下一個被APs攻擊國家為何?；第三篇探討，賭場在吸引顧客的優惠合約與承擔APs套利風險之間的兩難，提出模擬結果以及解方。以下我們詳述各篇的內容綱要。第一篇:本篇文章闡述，優勢玩家(APs)或也可稱為職業玩家，在賭場的獲利機制。首先，賭場做為莊家，所有的賭局一定有利於莊家，透過長期

累積的莊家優勢，可以確保賭場正常經營。然而，隨著民眾的知識水準提高，大部分人都知道十賭九輸的道理，因此，從賭場的財務結構來看，資金的收入來源已經逐漸由賭桌(table)項目，轉移到其他購物與休閒娛樂項目。為了吸引源源不絕的賭客，特別是一擲千金的大客戶，賭場提出各式讓利的措施，只要投注的資金達到門檻即可享有該讓利優惠，也因此逆轉了莊家優勢成為專業玩家的優勢，透過數學的推理，只要嚴格遵守各種下注及停利條件，經由大量的人海戰術，即可扳倒莊家成為玩家優勢，懂得使用此戰略的玩家通常為一團隊，我們就稱之為優勢玩家(APs)。不同的賭博(gambling)項目適用的條件都不盡相同，主在於每下注一塊錢，期望損

失的金額大小與標準差的不同，以此來測量賭博項目的波動程度，當波動程度越大的情況之下，APs要準備的資金也會相對比較多，資本優勢顯得更重要。因此，職業玩家能在賭場套利，主要有兩個方法：一是賭場所提供的優惠合約，第二個是透過技術，如算牌(card counting)的方式，找出規律在即將有利時巨額投注，扭轉期望值劣勢。本研究主要著重在於前者，僅利用賭場提供的優惠。雖然過程中，期望值為負；但因為賭場的額外優惠，導致此額外的優惠大於賭博項目本身的期望值，使整個賭博項目的莊家優勢扭轉為玩家優勢。相關的數學基礎，我們使用隨機過程模型的推導計算出最佳的下注及出場點，搭配模擬說明優勢玩家在參與賭博項目的過程中

如何利用賭場的優惠合約獲利。並且進一步說明，所需要的啟動資金。第二篇:本篇文章，根據國際上賭場提供給貴賓(very important person, VIP)的優惠條件，做國際性的比較，探討美國、韓國以及菲律賓。目前，從菲律賓的賭場已取消提供VIP優惠的教訓。此舉證明強力促銷爭取獲利的潛在風險，向全球賭場管理層提供了一個示警的信號。賭場在設計VIP合約的過程中，須要注意合約的相關金額以及所提供賭博項目的下注上限，這個比例如果沒有設計好，將會造成賭場的損失。本文運用隨機過程模型，進行一些變化，使得職業玩家在套利過程中不容易被賭場識破，更能夠隱藏其身份，持續套利。我們針對VIP合約以及賭博項目的

管理，做出了下列建議，美國賭場管理的穩健性是最好的，其次是韓國，而菲律賓則是曝露在最大的風險之下。因此，在韓國或類似菲律賓的其他國家的VIP優惠，所產生的運營風險，可能成為APs攻擊的下一個目。第三篇:本篇旨在解釋並分析近年來合法賭場的運營部門收入急劇下降的主要原因。APs在賭場獲利，主要有兩個方法：一個是賭場所提供的優惠，第二個是透過算牌方式。我們證明並披露了，職業玩家或是APs如何合法地，應用隨機過程、數學和模擬，來利用賭場提供的折扣優惠。本詳細展示了，APs如何利用，賭場提供給VIP折扣優惠並長期從賭場中獲利。此外，基於經驗證據，我們針對賭場管理所面臨的兩難，提出了一些建議方案。這些方案

，可以有效減少APs的優勢，確保賭場運營部門的收益。若賭場運營部門業務穩定和恢復活力，無疑也會對酒店客房、飲料、零售和其他設施的收益，產生協同效應。換句話說，賭場型酒店的盈利能力得以提高。
