Product Design Trends in 2024 | Teenage EngineeringsPixeldarts
The realm of product design is a constantly changing environment where technology and style intersect. Every year introduces fresh challenges and exciting trends that mold the future of this captivating art form. In this piece, we delve into the significant trends set to influence the look and functionality of product design in the year 2024.
How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).

我们每天都会听到各种各样的声音,有时甚至觉得噪音太多。但是,有些声

倍感安心。它听上去如此 47 ,绝大多数人都认为那是纸币在点钱的齿轮上滚动,
然后被送进取钱槽的声音。 48 上,一台嵌入墙体的自动取款机应当是悄无声息

这一步,才觉得心里踏实。
有一天,第一个书法家嘲笑第二个书法家,说:“请问, 59 ?”
后一个并不生气,而是笑眯眯地反问了一句:“请问,您的字究竟哪一笔是
您自己的呢?”
第一个听了,顿时张口结舌。

总经理对人事部经理说:“调一个优秀、可靠的职员来,我有重要的工作交
给他。”人事经理拿了一份材料对总经理说:“这个人在公司工作 10 年了,没
犯过任何错误。”
总经理说:“我不要这个 10 年没犯过一次错的人。
我要一个犯过 10 次错误,但是每次都能立即改正、获
得进步的人。”
谨慎自爱本是美德,但是倘若过分,就会变成畏
缩无能。在战壕里,战士倘若开枪射击,就容易被敌
人瞄准,但是一枪不放的战士又如何立功?多做多错,
少做少错,不做不错,这话确实是经验之谈,但是,不做不错的“不错”,到底
有什么价值?
学习走路的孩子没有不摔跤的,在千万孩子中,可能会有一个摔成脑震荡。
有一位母亲因此坚决不让她的孩子学走路,那孩子果然从来没摔过跤,但是最终
变成了瘫子,一生要坐轮椅。人生有些苦是要受的,有些代价是要付出的,有些
过错是要犯的。只要你不怕犯错,坚持不懈地去耕耘,总有一天,种子会长成参
天大树。

朋友小胡打算买辆新车,约我陪他去车市选车。他给自己设了一道底线:买
汽车的费用,包括上牌,不能超出 6 万元。他早看中了一款,带我直奔一家汽车
店去。导购小姐迎面而来,她熟练地介绍这款车的性能、特点和价格,小胡听得
很满意。的确,这是一款性价比不错的车,完全符合小胡的选择标准。
了解得差不多了,小胡准备去签合同,导购小姐冲我们
一笑,突然说了一句:“其实,这辆车是前两年的老款了,
最近公司推出了新款,外观更漂亮,设计更合理,价钱也就
是多了几千块钱,建议您看一看。”冲着这“设计更合理”,
小胡有些心动了,何况价钱区别不大。新款的外观,确实漂
亮多了,小胡显然动心了,放弃买老款,准备下单购买了。
这时,导购小姐又说:“其实,这一系列的车安全性能稍弱
一些,您不如考虑一下某某系列的车,价格比您选中的这辆
车只高出 8000 元。”当我坐上小胡的新车时,小胡自我解嘲道:“没想到,原本
只打算花 6 万,开回家的却是 8 万的。”
最初,人的欲望是合乎实际的,却经不住外界的诱惑、旁人的劝说……这些
就像是打气筒里的气,把那个名叫欲望的胎,一点点撑大了。于是,烦恼也就产
生了。
