焦慮的人能更快速地做出決定

Anxious people make some decisions more quickly, but not the ones you'd expect.
焦慮的人能更快速地做出決定，但不是你預期中的那種決定。

It turns out that anxious people are better shooters - not in snooker, but with a gun. Specifically, they can quickly distinguish between friend and foe .
研究發現焦慮的人是更好的射手，不是在斯諾克比賽中，而是用槍射擊的時候。確切地說，他們能迅速地區分敵我。

study author Tsachi Ein-Dor argues that his research shows anxiety does come with some benefits. He said I had indications from previous research that attachment anxiety is linked with better ability to detect various threats.
研究的作者薩齊·恩朵主張，他的研究表明焦慮確實會帶來一些益處。他說，先前的研究表明依戀焦慮與更好地察覺各種威脅的能力有關。

People high in attachment anxiety are usually stressed and over-reacting, however.
然而陷入依戀焦慮的人通常會緊張不安而且會反應過度。

What I wanted to examine is their performance in shooting decisions - would they be better at making accurate shooting decisions?
我想檢驗的是他們在做射擊決定時的表現，也就是他們會更擅長做出精準的射擊嗎？

The research used a game to recreate shooting situations.
該研究用一個遊戲重現了射擊場景。

In the game, targets ran into view, some carrying weapons, and some carrying harmless objects.
在遊戲中，射擊目標出現在視野中，一些攜帶了武器，另一些攜帶了無害的目標。

Ein-Dor found that those with high attachment anxiety were more accurate at detecting threats and shooting the target correctly.
恩朵發現那些有高度依戀焦慮的人在發現威脅以及準確無誤地擊中目標上更加精準。

Ein-Dor continued: The average person should take away from our study that personality should be appraised in the correct context.
恩朵繼續道：“普通人可以從我們的研究中瞭解到我們應該在適當的情況下評價性格。”

Being anxious is often appraised as maladaptive. We have shown that contrary to the common thought, calmness is maladaptive in the context of shooting decisions, whereas anxiety is adaptive.
焦慮往往會被評價爲沒有適應能力。我們的研究卻表明，事實與人們普遍的想法相反，在進行射擊的環境下，不適應的是平靜的人，而焦慮的人卻是能夠適應的。

He added a heartwarming message: People should not appraise their personality as good or bad. Each personality disposition has its advantages (and disadvantages). Hence, people need to search for the context in which their personality would succeed.
他還提供了一條激勵人心的信息：人們不應該用好或壞來評價性格。每一種性格都有其優勢（和劣勢），因此人們需要尋找自己的性格佔優勢的場合。
