摘要

一项 2（行话 vs. 无行话）×3（动机：控制 vs. 准确性 vs. 印象）的主体间实验考察了行话和处理动机对纠正气候变化错误信息和促进政策支持的影响。结果显示，当参与者被要求在信息处理过程中关注准确性时，行话的使用会产生积极影响。这种效应通过减少愤怒、增加系统处理和增强信息可信度感知来调节。然而，在没有特定动机的情况下，行话会产生负面影响，而在要求参与者专注于建立积极的社会印象时，行话对纠正结果没有影响。这些发现为信息处理提供了理论意义，也为解决气候变化背景下的错误信息提供了实践启示。

Overcoming Confirmation Bias in Misinformation Correction: Effects of Processing Motive and Jargon on Climate Change Policy Support

A 2 (jargon vs. no jargon) × 3 (motive: control vs. accuracy vs. impression) between-subjects experiment examined the impact of jargon and processing motive in correcting climate change misinformation and promoting policy support. The results revealed a positive effect of jargon use when participants were asked to focus on accuracy during information processing. This effect was mediated by reduced anger, increased systematic processing, and enhanced perceptions of message credibility. However, jargon had a negative effect when no specific motive was induced, and it did not make a difference in correction outcomes when participants were asked to focus on making positive social impressions. These findings provide theoretical implications for information processing and practical insights for addressing misinformation in the context of climate change.
