29、nearly two-thirds of students will experience the ninth-gradeshock,which refers to a dramatic drop in a students academic performance.Some students cope withthis shock by avoiding challenges.For instance,they may drop difficult coursework.Others mayexperience a hopelessness that results in failing t

30、heir core classes,such as English,science and math.B)This should matter a great deal to parents,teachers and policymakers.IBtimately it should matter tothe students themselves and society at large,because students experience of transitioning(lii./t)tothe ninth grade can have long-term consequences n

31、ot only for the students themselves but for theirhome communities.We make these observations as research psychologists who have studied howschools and families can help young people thrive.C)In the new global economy,students who fail to finish the ninth grade with passing grades.in collegepreparato

33、,crime,welfare dependence and other things.D)The consequences of doing poorly in the ninth grade can impact more than students ability to find agood job.It can also impact the extent to which they enjoy life.Students lose many of the friends theyturned to for support when they move from the eighth t

34、o the ninth grade.One study of ninth-gradestudents found that 50 percent of friendships among ninth graders changed from one month to thenext,signaling striking instability in friendships.E)In addition,studies find the first year of high school typically shows one of the greatest increases indepress

35、ion of any year over the lifespan.Researchers think that one explanation is that ties to friendsare broken while academic demands are rising.Furthermore,most adult cases of clinical depressionfirst emerge in aaolescence(-t$-J.Jl).The World Health Organization reports that depression has thegreatest

36、burden of disease worldwide,in terms of the total cost of treatment and the loss ofproductivity.F)Given all thats riding on having a successful ninth grade experience,it pays to explore what can bedone to meet the academic,social and emotional challenges of the transition to high school.So far,our s

37、tudies have yielded one main insight:Students beliefs about change-their beliefs about whetherpeople are stuck one way forever,or whether people can change their personalities and abilities-arell!J 2021 1j:.6 JJ 4 related to their ability to cope,succeed academically and maintain good mental health.

38、Past research has called these beliefs mindsets(,if!:tl),with a fixed mindset referring to the belief that people cannot change and a growth mindset referring to the belief that people can change.G)In one recent study,we examined 360 adolescents beliefs about the nature of smartness-that is,their fi

39、xed mindsets about intelligence.We then assessed biological stress responses for students whosegrades were dropping by examining their stress hormones(1if t).Students who believed thatintelligence is fixed-that you are stuck being not smart if you struggle in school-showed higherlevels of stress hor

40、mones when their grades were declining at the beginning of the ninth grade.Ifstudents believed that intelligence could improve-that is to say,when they held more of a growthmindset of intelligence-they showed lower levels of stress hormones when their grades weredeclining.This was an exciting result

41、 because it showed that the bodys stress responses are notdetermined solely by ones grades.Instead,declining grades only predicted worse stress hormonesamong students who believed that worsening grades were a permanent and hopeless state of affairs.H)We also investigated the social side of the high

42、school transition.In this study,instead of teachingstudents that their smartness can change,we taught them that their social standing-that is,whetherthey are bullied or excluded or left out-can change over time.We then looked at high school studentsstress responses to daily social difficulties.That

43、is,we taught them a growth mindset about their sociallives.In this study,students came into the laboratory and were asked to give a public speech in front ofupper-year students.The topic of the speech was what makes one popular in high school.Followingthis,students had to complete a difficult mental

44、 math task in front of the same upper-year students.I)Experiment results showed that students who were not taught that people can change showed poorstress responses.When these students gave the speech,their blood vessels contracted and their heartspumped less blood through the body-both responses th

45、at the body shows when it is preparing fordamage or defeat after a physical threat.Then they gave worse speeches and made more mistakes inmath.But when students were taught that people can change,they had better responses to stress,inpart because they felt like they had the resources to deal with th

46、e demanding situation.Students whogot the growth mindset intervention(f-fi)showed less-contracted blood vessels and their heartspumped more blood-both of which contributed to more oxygen getting to the brain,and,ultimately,better performance on the speech and mental math tasks.J)These findings lead

47、to several possibilities that we are investigating further.First,e are working toreplicate(i.11itJ)these findings in more diverse school communities.We want to know in which typesof schools and for which kinds of students these growth mindset ideas help young people adapt to thechallenges of high sc

48、hool.We also hope to learn how teachers,parents or school counselors can helpstudents keep their ongoing academic or social difficulties in perspective.We wonder what wouldhappen if schools helped to make beliefs about the potential for change and improvement a largerfeature of the overall school cu

49、lture,especially for students starting the ninth grade.36.The number of people experiencing depression shows a sharp increase in the first year of high school.37.According to one study,students academic performance is not the only decisive factor of their stressresponses.38.Researchers would like to

50、 explore further how parents and schools can help ninth graders by changingtheir mindset.39.According to one study,each high school graduate contributes at least 500,OOO dollars to the localeconomy.fill 2021 6 JI 5-40.In one study,students were told their social position in school is not unchangeabl
