Abstract

Abstract We investigate whether non-miserly cognitive styles mediate the effects of cognitive ability and thinking dispositions on rational thought. Specifically, we review relevant literature on two dimensions that define non-miserly cognitive style: reflection-impulsivity and analytic-intuitive. We use these two dimensions to identify a continuum of cognitive styles that vary from miserly (impulsive-intuitive) to non-miserly (reflective-analytic) and are congruent with tendencies to commit specific rational thinking errors. Further, we argue that this continuum, which we label reflective-analytic cognitive style, mediates the effect of cognitive ability and thinking dispositions on rational thought. We conduct an experiment testing our predictions and find evidence, via structural equation modelling, that reflective-analytic cognitive style does mediate the effect of cognitive ability (as measured by working memory capacity) and thinking dispositions (as measured by need for cognition and actively open-minded thinking) on responses to traditional rational thinking tasks.
反思分析型认知方式对理性思维的中介作用
摘要本研究探讨非吝啬型认知风格是否介导认知能力和思维倾向对理性思维的影响。具体来说,我们回顾了定义非吝啬认知风格的两个维度的相关文献:反思-冲动性和分析-直觉。我们使用这两个维度来识别从吝啬(冲动-直觉)到非吝啬(反思-分析)的连续认知风格,并与犯下特定理性思维错误的倾向一致。此外,我们认为,这种连续体,我们称之为反思-分析认知风格,调解了认知能力和思维倾向对理性思维的影响。我们进行了一项实验来检验我们的预测,并通过结构方程模型找到证据,证明反思分析型认知风格确实介导了认知能力(以工作记忆容量为衡量标准)和思维倾向(以认知需求和积极开放思维为衡量标准)对传统理性思维任务的反应的影响。
