Abstract

Recent debiasing studies have shown that a short, plain-English explanation of the correct solution strategy can improve reasoning performance. However, these studies have predominantly focused on English-speaking populations, who were tested with problem contents designed for an English-speaking test environment. Here we explore whether the key findings of previous debiasing studies can be extended to native French speakers living in continental Europe (France). We ran a training session with a battery of three reasoning tasks (i.e., base-rate neglect, conjunction fallacy, and bat-and-ball) on 147 native French speakers. We used a two-response paradigm in which participants first gave an initial intuitive response, under time pressure and cognitive load, and then gave a final response after deliberation. Results showed a clear training effect, as early as the initial (intuitive) stage. Immediately after training, most participants solved the problems correctly, without the need for a deliberation process. The findings confirm that the intuitive debiasing training effect extends to native French speakers.
再见偏见:贬低法语使用者的直觉
最近的去伪存真研究表明,用简短、通俗的英语解释正确的解题策略可以提高推理成绩。然而,这些研究主要针对的是讲英语的人群,他们在测试时使用的问题内容是专为讲英语的测试环境设计的。在此,我们将探讨以往去伪存真研究的主要发现是否可以推广到生活在欧洲大陆(法国)的以法语为母语的人群中。我们对 147 名以法语为母语的人进行了由三个推理任务(即基率忽略、连词谬误和球棒击球)组成的训练。我们采用了一种双反应范式,让受试者在时间压力和认知负荷下先给出一个初步的直觉反应,然后在深思熟虑后给出一个最终反应。结果表明,早在初始(直觉)阶段,训练就产生了明显的效果。训练后,大多数参与者都能立即正确地解决问题,而无需经过深思熟虑的过程。研究结果证实,直觉排错训练效应也适用于以法语为母语的人。

期刊介绍: ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications. The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
