Researchers from Pennsylvania State University and Duke University tracked more than 700 children from across the US between kindergarten and aged 25 and found a significant connection between their social skills as kindergarteners and their success as adults two decades later. In the research, teachers assessed how the kindergarteners interacted with each other socially using a range of criteria like whether they cooperate with their peers without being encouraged, whether theyre helpful to others, whether theyre good at understanding feelings, and whether they can solve problems on their own. Researchers then kept track of whether the students go on to graduate from high school on time, get a college degree, and find and keep a full-time job by 25. They also monitored the participants involvement with crime, drug abuse, public assistance, and mental health issues. The results showed that socially capable children are far more likely to earn a college degree and have a full-time job by 25 than those with limited social skills. Those with limited social skills also have a higher chance of getting arrested, binge drinking, and applying for public housing. “This study shows that helping children develop social and emotional skills is one of the most important things we can do to prepare them for a healthy future,” said Kristin Schubert, program director at the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, which funded the research, in a release. “From an early age, these skills can determine whether a child goes to college or prison, and whether they end up employed or addicted. ”The good news, according to Damon Jones, lead author of the study, is that intervention (干预) at a young age can help improve social and emotional skills. “This research by itself doesnt prove that higher social ability can lead to better outcomes later on, ” he said. “But when combined with other research, it is clear that helping children develop these skills increases their chances of success in school, work, and life. ”【语篇概述】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项持续20年的调查研究的结果,表明幼时社交能力与成年后成功的关联。24.
