"Reminding yourself of your own strengths and values could help boost your problem-solving skills when you're under duress, according to a new study.
"The study, published in the journal PLOS ONE, included 73 college students who reported high levels of stress over the course of a month. Then, researchers had half of the study participants do a self-affirmation exercise (where they had to write about why certain values, like an emphasis on family and friends or the importance of art were important to them) and the other half do a control exercise. Following that exercise, all participants were asked to complete a task that measured problem-solving abilities.
"Researchers found that that the students who did the self-affirmation practice scored higher on the problem-solving task."
