Worship can improve people's self-confidence and self-identity to a certain extent. In an idolized relationship, this kind of unilateral dedication can make people feel comfortable, calm and healthy. But if we continue to pay unilaterally, it is very likely that idolized people will become sick.
This newspaper comprehensively reports the latest research in the United States, which shows that moderate worship of celebrities is good for health, because this kind of worship can improve people's self-confidence and self-identity to a certain extent. However, experts also pointed out that excessive idolization will only lead people to pathological extremes.
Sheila Gabriel, a psychologist at new york State University in Buffalo, USA, conducted three studies on celebrity worship. The main goal of this study is whether the worship of celebrities will affect the self-confidence of admirers.
Ms Gabriel said that as early as seven or eight years ago, when Michael Jackson was tried for pedophilia, many Jackson fans ran to court to support him. At that time, she began to think: What drives fans to do this? What can these behaviors bring to themselves?
According to gabriel, one possible explanation is that ordinary people can get the pleasure of integrating into celebrity life through idolize and celebrities. Crazy crush on celebrities can also bring unique satisfaction to fans.
Idolization can improve self-confidence.
To test his hypothesis, Gabriel and other researchers conducted an experiment together. She recruited 348 college students as volunteers, and15 of them admitted that they were crazy about celebrities.
Gabriel asked all students to fill out a questionnaire about personal confidence, which contained 1 1 questions. After receiving the questionnaire, she and other researchers rated the volunteers according to the bottom line of confidence shown in the questionnaire.
Then, she asked each volunteer to spend five minutes writing an article about their favorite celebrity, in order to open their hearts to worship complex. Finally, the researchers sent them the same questionnaire again and asked them to fill it out again to reassess their self-confidence.
As a result, the researchers found that after writing an article about the stars they admired, volunteers who scored very low on the self-confidence scale scored much higher when they did the same questionnaire again, almost approaching the level of volunteers who scored very high at the beginning.
Gabriel said: "Because people have established some emotional connection with their favorite celebrity in their hearts, they can absorb some characteristics of celebrities and feel better when they think of that celebrity." "This is what these people can't get in real relationships, because they are afraid of being rejected and deliberately keep their distance from others.
Overworship has many disadvantages.
Gabriel pointed out that this research result does not blindly admit the role of celebrity worship in maintaining psychological stability, that is, it does not mean that people need idolization to improve their self-confidence. She said that everything is enough, too much is too late. Some people hinder celebrity life or have obsessive-compulsive disorder because of idolization, which shows the disadvantages of excessive idolization.
It is found that worshipping celebrities will reduce a person's self-confidence, because the endless yearning for and pursuit of a lifestyle beyond his own life reality may eventually lead to a feeling of being out of tune with his surroundings, and even doubt his own value and feel that his ability is too poor.
Others will suffer from "celebrity worship syndrome", the symptom of which is that idol worship makes them completely unable to extricate themselves, just like alcoholics and drug addicts are addicted to alcohol or drugs.
Yang Lijuan's strong pursuit of Andy Lau some time ago is a good example.
In addition, there are many, you can search for idolization in Baidu, and you will certainly find many such bad examples.

The disadvantages of worshipping primary and secondary school students.

"In today's society, people from primary school to 23 years old have no idols, and idolization will be looked down upon by others." This actually comes from the mouth of a middle school student, which shows that primary and secondary school students are idolizing.
Adolescence is a critical period for the cultivation and formation of a person's moral quality and even personality. The role model in teenagers' minds and its imitation, the pursuit and behavior of adolescence have a vital influence on the formation of your whole mental outlook.
Fans blindly imitate, pursue and love their living habits, hobbies, clothes and even pets because of their worship of star idols and "love me, love my dog". For example, they deliberately imitate the hair styles and clothes of stars, ask about their hobbies everywhere, and learn to do it themselves. A teenager heard that a star didn't like a dish, so he stopped eating it himself. This blind imitation is not conducive to the formation of teenagers' moral quality, and even goes astray, endangering teenagers' moral quality.
One of the disadvantages: idolization, listening to songs, delaying study, which is the first great harm of idolization. Teenagers are like a dry sponge, in the best period of absorbing knowledge and nutrition, while "groupies" spend the time they should have spent studying, doing homework, participating in useful extracurricular activities and reading useful books and newspapers on listening to songs. In the classroom, I am also immersed in the self-woven "idolized dream", learning is ignored, and academic performance generally declines. Some students even skip class and wait in the street in order to get a star's signature, which seriously affects children's study.
Disadvantage 2: Many teenagers can't eat well or sleep well for idolization. They listen to music in the middle of the night and daydream all day, which obviously affects the growth and health of teenagers and is not conducive to their physical and mental development. Some idolized teenagers have to save breakfast to buy color photos and tapes for idolization, and some even go to the hospital to sell blood for a concert ticket of 200 yuan each! Some people regard the star they worship as their lover, which causes unrequited love disease and seriously affects their physical and mental health.
Disadvantage 3: Innocent boys and girls are obsessed with idols, and it is inevitable that some lawless people will fish in troubled waters. Let the bad guys fish in troubled waters and increase social unrest. Students from a school in Shanghai organized a "Dawn Fan Club". Everyone who joined the club paid 20 yuan, so members flocked to the club. Later, Dawn went to Shanghai to hold a concert. The president of the fans said that they would organize fans to meet Dawn, which attracted many fans and enthusiasts. They still paid the price for it, eagerly waiting for a glimpse of dawn. Who knows, wait and wait, if there is no news, not only will the dawn fail, but even the president will disappear. Later, I learned that the so-called president turned out to be a liar. He cheated his fans of their money and then ran away. The fans screamed and fell for it, but it was too late.
Some people say that the idolization of teenagers is a rebound from the heavy schoolwork burden in middle schools and a response from junior high school students seeking to get rid of the study pressure, which is also reasonable. But whether it is a rebound or a reaction, we can't go too far and go to the opposite side. Overworked schoolwork is indeed an urgent problem to be solved, but it is feasible for schools to strengthen music, physical education and beauty classes and carry out colorful extracurricular activities that are beneficial to the body and mind. At the same time, parents and society need to cooperate with schools to help them treat idols correctly, establish positive values and promote their healthy growth.

Good article.

Idolization is not terrible! Some singers really sing very well and it's hard to hear. Sometimes they can eliminate people's troubles and relieve stress. Middle school students have a lot of growth experience worth learning! Aren't many students with good grades idolized? I think we should treat it with a normal heart and be kind! Focus on guidance!
