【摘要】 本研究目的在于探讨人们考虑了不同说服力及不同类型的原因后是否会改变原有决策。通过两个系列实验调查了3176名被试,结果发现:1)被试考虑高说服力的反面原因后更有可能改变原有决策,这种改变可能是因为他们觉得原因具有足够的说服力,表现为他们对原因的评价更高;2)在考虑了正面原因后,仍有小部分的被试会改变他们的决策,这种改变可能是因为他们觉得原因不够合理,表现为他们对原因的评价更低;3)不管在哪种条件下,保持决策的被试仍占比例优势,这可能是因为他们对原因进行了有偏评价,表现为对支持原有决策的原因评价更高。此外,我们的研究提示在道德决策上可能存在东西方文化差异。更多还原

【Abstract】 This research aimed to determine whether people change their decisions or not after considering affirming reasons or opposing reasons with different persuasiveness in moral dilemmas. Two series of experiments were conducted(N=3176). Results showed that:1)people were more likely to change their initial decisions when presented with opposing reasons with high persuasion compared with affirming reasons or opposing reasons with lower persuasion;2)still, there was a small proportion of people would change their initial decisions after evaluating affirming reasons. The reasons evaluated may accounted for why people changed their decisions or not changed their decisions. Those who changed decisions evaluated opposing reasons with a higher score and evaluated affirming reasons with a lower score;Those who not changed decisions rated the reasons supporting their initial decisions more favorably than the reasons opposing their initial decisions. Otherwise, our results may indicated a cultural difference in moral decisions.更多还原
