心理学项目
项目简介
尽管技术和研究取得了进步，但人们的学习方式在过去的一个世纪里基本上没有改变。研究表明，大多数学生在学习时依赖直觉，而不是基于证据的建议，只有一小部分学生接受基于确凿证据的指导。然而，最近在自我调节学习领域的发展主要集中在确定有效的学习习惯和纠正常见的错误观念，以帮助学生充分发挥他们的潜力。尤里卡项目的毕业生已经收到了哈佛大学、威廉姆斯学院、芝加哥大学、康奈尔大学等美国顶尖文理学院的录取通知书。该项目的毕业生继续攻读心理学、神经生物学、生物化学、比较文学和经济学等专业。
学生在尤里卡项目中获得的研究经验和技能帮助他们获得了斯坦福暑期人文学院等优秀项目的录取。
该项目的学生也非常热衷于他们的社区活动，参与志愿活动并创办非营利组织来帮助社区。一位校友利用业余时间在一个为有需要的人提供食物和物资的组织做志愿者，而另一位学生志愿教农民工子弟音乐。
该项目的许多校友获得了学术艺术与国家写作奖、学者奖等顶级奖项，以及他们所在社区的各种奖项。
以下部分将更深入地分享往届学生的经历。
研究主题案例
拖延症与计划谬误研究
在讲求效率的今天，“拖延”是很多人都会面临的问题，而“计划谬误”这一心理学现象解释了为什么人们往往会过于乐观而无法按时完成计划。被芝加哥大学录取的学生H*做了一个验，测试在计划中列出具体的任务是否能帮助人们克服计划谬误。他制作了一份问卷，将参与者随机分为两组：一组制定了一天的粗略计划。相比之下，另一组则列出具体任务，并评估他们实际上能完成多少任务。学生H发现，列出具体任务的那一组对自己能达到的目标有更高的估计，他们完成任务的速度也比没有列出的那一组要快。
