人的巅峰期是在几岁？

人的巅峰期是在几岁？

The ups and downs of life may seem to have no predictable plan. But scientists now know there are very definite patterns that almost all people share. Even if you've passed some of your "prime", you still have other prime years to experience in the future. Certain important primes seem to peak later in life.

When are you smartest? From 18—25, according to I.Q. scores; but you're wiser and more experienced with increasing age.

You're sharpest in your 20's; around 30, memory begins to decline, particularly your ability to perform mathematical computations. But your I.Q. for other tasks climbs. Your vocabulary at age 45, for example is three times as great as when you graduated from college. At 60, your brain possesses almost four times as much information as it did at age 21. This trade-off between sharpness and wisdom has led psychologists to suggest that "maturity quotients" (M.Q.) be adopted for adults.

When are you happiest? You have the best physical sense of yourself from 15to 24; the best professional sense from 40 to 49.

Before age 24, we believe that our happiest years are yet to come; over30, we believe that they're behind us. A National Health Survey agrees: After age 30, we "become more realistic and do not view happiness as a goal in itself. If we maintain our health, achieve professional and emotional goals, then happiness, we feel, will follow".

When are you most creative? Generally between 30 and 39, but the peak varies with different professions.

Mozart wrote a symphony and four sonatas by age eight, and Mendelssohn composed his best known work A Midsummer Night's Dream at 17, but most of the great music was written by men between 33 and 39.Though the peak in most fields comes early——most Nobel prize winners did their top research in their late 20's and 30's——creative people continue to produce quality work throughout their lives. For the "well-conditioned mind", there is no upper limit.

生活的起伏似乎没有可预知的计划。但是科学家现在知道几乎所有人都有非常明确的模式。即使你已经通过了一些你的“黄金”，你仍然有其他的黄金岁月来体验未来。某些重要的素数似乎在以后的生活中达到高峰。

你什么时候最聪明？从18-25，根据智商得分，但随着年龄的增长，你更聪明，更有经验。

在你的20岁时，你是最敏锐的，30左右，记忆力开始下降，特别是你的数学计算能力。但是你的智商对于其他任务来说是攀登的。比如说，你45岁时的词汇量是你大学毕业时的三倍。60岁时，大脑拥有四倍于21岁时的信息。敏锐性和智慧之间的这种权衡导致心理学家认为“成熟商”（M.Q.）被成年人采用。

你什么时候最快乐？从15岁到24岁，你拥有最好的身体感觉，40到49岁的最佳职业感觉。

在24岁之前，我们相信我们最幸福的日子还没有到来，30岁以上的我们相信他们已经落后了。一项全国性健康调查同意：30岁以后，我们变得更加现实，不把幸福看作自己的目标。如果我们保持健康，实现专业和情感目标，那么能感觉到幸福。

你什么时候最有创造力？一般在30和39之间，但峰值随着不同的职业而变化。

莫扎特在八岁时创作了一首交响乐和四首奏鸣曲，门德尔松在17岁时创作了他最著名的作品《仲夏夜之梦》，但大部分伟大的音乐都是在33到39年间由男性创作的。尽管大部分领域的音乐都很早就出现了——诺贝尔奖获得者们在这方面做了最出色的研究。20岁和30岁的EIR——有创造力的人在他们的生活中继续创造高质量的工作。对于“有条件的头脑”来说，没有上限。
